1.1 Water installation
It is imperative that you comply with certain regulations when
installing the GENO-mat duo WE-X water softener. Additional
recommendations are given in order to facilitate the handling of
the system. The installation instructions described below are
also illustrated in Fig. D-1.
Binding rules
The installation of a water softener represents a major
interference with the drinking water system. Therefore,
only authorised experts may install such systems.

Please observe the local installation guidelines and
the general regulations.

Install a drinking water filter upstream (e.g. BOXER).

Use corrosion-resistant material for soft water lines
OR
Meter corrosion inhibitor downstream of the water softener.

Provide a drain connection (minimum DN 50) to discharge the
regeneration water.


Note: If the regeneration water is directed to a lifting system,
said system must be salt water resistant.
The unit does not carry a DVGW test certificate. Provide
additional safety equipment for protection of the drinking water in
line with DIN 1988. Therefore:


Isolate the water softener from the drinking water supply in
line with DIN 1988 part 4 (e.g. by the use of the GENO DK 2
Euro system separator).
Recommendations
 
Provide a sampling valve immediately downstream of the
softener. This facilitates the sampling for the regular hardness
tests (functional check).

Warning! Floor drains leading to a lifting system do not work in
case of a power failure.
