GENERAL WARNINGS
Do not allow children or pets to play on or around the water filter.
Do not install or store this filter system where it will be exposed to freezing temperatures.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the system unless specifically
instructed to in this manual and you have the understanding, tools, and skills necessary to
carry out the procedure.
Packing materials can be dangerous to children. Keep all packing material (plastic bags,
polystyrene, boxes, etc.) well out of the reach of children.
Individual components of this water treatment system, and the installed system, are heavy.
Precautions should be taken to prevent personal injury or strain. Do not move heavy
components without assistance if you are not physically capable of safely carrying out the
procedure.
If the water treatment system is to be left unattended for an extended period of time
(vacation, etc.), we strongly recommend that you turn off the water supply to the system, or
the whole house, while you are away.
All state, provincial, and local government codes governing installation of water softeners
should be observed.
If your water pipes are metal (galvanized or copper), they may be used to ground electrical
systems, appliances, or your phone line. If this is the case, be sure to install regulation
ground clamps to the metal pipe on each side of the control valve and connect a jumper
wire between the 2 clamps (#4 gauge solid copper wire recommended). Consult a certified
electrician or plumber if you are unsure.
