INSTALLATION
Place filter in desired location close to water supply inlet, after
pressure tank, and near a source for waste water, (utility sink, floor
drain or sewer line). A 115/120V, 60Hz uninterrupted outlet is required.
Keep filter far enough away from walls and other obstructions to allow
enough room for servicing the unit. If a water softener is also to be
installed, generally it will be placed in line after the neutralizer or filter.
From water supply→ neutralizer → filter → softener → to service
ADD MINERALS:
Remove control valve from mineral tank by turning counter-clockwise. Plug open end (top) of distributor tube assembly to
prevent mineral from entering
(Fig. A)
. Add Mineral.
DO NOT OVERFILL
. There must be at least 16” of space between
the top of the tank and mineral
(Fig. B)
. Remove plug from the top of the distributor tube.
Install control valve making sure the distributor tube is slipped into the center hole on the bottom of the control valve. Pipe
filter into service line. Use of a bypass valve is recommended. Arrows are molded into valve and bypass valve to show
direction of flow.

OPTIONAL BYPASS VALVE:
The bypass valve easily connects to the control valve body using nuts that only require
hand tightening. Install with red knobs in the upward position. Press end of bypass valve with o-rings into valve. Hand
tighten nuts. Place into
BYPASS OPERATION (Fig. 4)
.
Avoid getting primer and solvent cement on any part of the o-rings or split rings, bypass valve or control valve.
DO NOT
use pipe dope or any other sealant on threads. Teflon tape is not necessary on the caps because of o-ring seals.
DO
NOT
use Vaseline or other unacceptable lubricants on o-rings. A silicone lubricant may be used on black o-rings.
DRAIN LINE:
The 3/4” drain line elbow accommodates 5/8” poly tube or 3/4” NPT drain line connections. The nut and
poly tube insert for the 3/4” drain line elbow is designed for use with flexible,
semi-rigid poly tube only. The drain line elbow can be rotated so the outlet can
be oriented toward the nearest drain.
TO INSTALL 5/8” POLY TUBE DRAIN LINE:
The poly tube insert is shipped
attached to the drain line elbow’s locking clip. Press the insert into the drain line
(5/8” poly tube not included). Loosen nut of the drain line elbow. Press 5/8” poly
tube with insert into the drain line elbow until it seats on the back of the fitting.
Tighten nut.
The drain line must be piped to an open drain with air gap between the drain
and the sewer lines (Fig. 3). Under no circumstances should there be a direct
connection with sanitary sewage facilities. If it is necessary to run the drain pipe
overhead, (not to exceed 5’ above valve) be sure to increase the pipe size and
follow all plumbing procedures to hold friction and restrictions to a minimum.
