Installation
A. ATTACH THE ADAPTORS AND CLIPS
TO THE FILTER
1
. Insert the adaptors into the holes on each side of
the filter head (See Figure 9).
2
. Secure in place with clips. Ensure all three tabs on
the clips go through the matching holes and are fully
in the channels on the adaptor (See Figure 10).
B. CONNECT THE WATER SUPPLY LINES
IMPORTANT:
Do not solder the metal plumbing while
attached to plastic installation adaptors.
Solder heat will damage the adaptors.
1
. Seal the inlet and outlet threads on the filter adap-
tors (See Figure 11) with several wraps of sealant
tape.
2
. Connect the water supply lines to the inlet and out-
let using 1 in. female NPT threaded adaptors (not
included). Use caution to avoid cross-threading the
adaptors.
C. INSTALL THE DRAIN HOSE
Do the following before turning the water supply back
on:
1
. Measure, cut to needed length and connect the 3/8
in. drain line (provided) to the Automatic Sediment
Filter’s valve drain fitting (See Figure 8 on Page 7).
Use a hose clamp to hold hose in place.
2
. Run the drain hose or copper tubing to the floor
drain. Secure drain hose. This will prevent the
drain line from “whipping'' during sediment flush
cycles. See “Air Gap Requirements" section.
D. CHECK FOR LEAKS
1
. With the installation steps completed, fully open the
home’s main water supply valve.
2
. Check for leaks at all the plumbing connections you
made.
3
. Make sure the electronics are completely dry before
powering the unit up (as described in the next sec-
tion).
