WATER SOFTENER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1)
Softeners should always be installed on firm level surface.
2)
It is important that the water supply is within the pressure and temperature
parameters. –
Min- 1.7 Bar, Max 5.0 bar, Max Temp – 65 deg.C
3)
The supplies to the softener should be capable of being isolated as close as possible
to the softener and a piped by-pass should be included if the softener does not
already have one.
4)
The connections should be made with flexible hoses with regard to the flow
direction arrows on the connection manifold and the push fit hose connection for
the drain should be run to an open faucet to prevent syphonage. If the unit is
supplied with a separate salt tank, you will need to connect the brine line from the
push fit elbow to the brine tank, ensuring the brass inserts are fitted within the pipe.
5)
The incoming supply to the softener should include a non-return valve.
6)
The provision of an overflow in case of overfilling of the brine tank should also
be provided to the “push fit” elbow on the side of the cabinet or brine tank.
7)
Electrical connections should be made to a suitable socket outlet or D.P. isolation
switch, fused at 3 amps.
8)
Once installation is completed then please follow the below
commissioning instructions.
