Installation
-Brine Line and Overflow Connection-
1. Position brine tank on a smooth, level surface near the softener resin tank. If necessary, the brine tank can be
placed at a higher level than the resin tank, but never at a lower level.
2. Install one end of 3/8" O.D. by 1/4" I.D. brine line tubing (included with unit) to compression fitting located on left side
of control valve.
3. Remove brine tank cover.
4. Remove cap from brine well.
5. Insert opposite end of brine line through outer hole in brine tank.
6. Connect brine line to compression fitting on safety brine valve located inside brine well. Replace brine well cap.
7. Install 1/2" I.D. drain line tubing (not included) to the overflow fitting on brine tank located just below the brine line.
8. Run the opposite end of brine tank drain line to a suitable drain.

- Drain Line Connection -
1. The drain line flow control assembly is pre-assembled for your convenience. Should you choose to hard plumb the
drain line, please remove the barb fitting. The flow control housing can be removed by removing the clip and pulling
straight out on housing.
Note:
When re-installing the drain line flow control housing, be sure you hear and feel the O-Ring pop into place before
inserting the clip.
2. Install 1/2” I.D. drain line tubing (not included) from hose barb to an open drain. A 4” gap between end of the drain line
and the open drain is required to prevent waste water backflow. Keep the drain line as short as possible. An overhead
drain line can be used if necessary, but should discharge below the control valve. A syphon trap (taped loop) at the
outlet of the drain line is advisable to keep the drain line full and assure correct flow during backwash. Elbows or other
fittings must be kept at a bare minimum.
Note:
Where the drain line is elevated above the control valve or exceeds 20 feet in length, 3/4” I.D. drain line tubing
should be used.
