9.   Install the inFusion system close to the water source.  

BE SURE 

to install the inFusion 

system directly after the well pressure tank.  It is a good practice to add a sediment filter 
prior to the inFusion system between the pressure tank and the inFusion tank.  Shut off 
the main water supply and relieve the pressure on the plumbing system.   

10. Install the inlet plumbing on the inlet side of the control valve and the outlet plumbing on 

the outlet of the control valve.  The inlet and outlet can be identified by the arrows on the 
control valve.  The arrow pointing toward the control valve is the inlet.  The arrow point-
ing away from the control valve is the outlet.  (Optional flexible connectors shown utilize 
rubber washer seals and do not require Teflon tape). 

11. Install a gauge in the inlet and outlet plumbing.  Use the tee fitting that matches the pip-

ing material.  The tee must have a 1/4” female threaded port to except the gauge.  (The 
picture below shows optional brass fittings utilizing Shark-bite® fittings to convert to PEX 
piping).   

 

Note: The gauges are included but the fittings are not. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

NOTE: The Fusion system is equipped with a bypass valve.  If a 3 valve bypass in the 

plumbing system is in place or preferred, the supplied bypass is not required.
