Installation Instructions.
TURN OFF WATER SUPPLY
1. Close the main water supply valve, located near
the well pump or water meter.
2. Open all faucets to drain all water from house
pipes.
NOTE:
Be sure not to drain water from the water
heater, as damage to the water heater elements
could result.
INSTALL THE BRINE TANK OVERFlOW
ADAPTER
Install the brine tank overflow grommet and
adapter in the 13/16” diameter hole in the back of
the salt storage tank sidewall, (see Figure 9).
NOTE:
The brine tank overflow adapter accepts
either 1/2” or 3/8” I.D. hose
.
INSTALL THE BYPASS VALVE

For easier installation, remove the top
cover. Release 2 clips at rear of cover. Rotate
cover forward and lift up.
1. Visually check and remove any debris from the
water softener valve inlet and outlet ports, (see
Figure 7).
2. Make sure the turbine assembly spins freely in
the”out” port of the valve, (see Figure 8).
3. If not already done, put a light coating of
silicone grease (provided) on the single bypass
valve o-rings, (see Figure 7).
4. Push the single bypass valve into the softener
valve as far as it will go. Snap the two large
holding clips into place, from the top down, (see
Figure 7 and 10).
IMPORTANT:
Be sure the clips snap firmly into
place so the single bypass valve will not pull out.
