IMPORTANT: INSTALLATION AND

SAFETY INFORMATION

Follow the installation instructions carefully. Failure to install the 
softener properly may void the warranty.

Use care when handling the softener. Do not turn upside down, drop, or 
set on sharp protrusions.

Before you begin installation, read this entire manual. Then obtain all the 
materials and tools you will need to make the installation.

Check local plumbing and electrical regulations and byelaws. 

The installation must conform to them.

Do not locate the softener where freezing temperatures occur. Do not 
attempt to treat water over 49ºC. 

Freezing or hot water damage 

will void your warranty.

Avoid installing in direct sunlight. Excessive sun heat may cause 
distortion or other damage to non-metallic parts.

Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 4.76 bar.

If the daytime pressure exceeds 4.76 bar, a pressure reducing valve is 
recommended (adding a pressure reducing valve may reduce the flow).

The softener works on 

24 volt 50 Hz electrical power only.

 Be sure 

to use the supplied transformer and plug it into a normal 240V, 50Hz 
household outlet that is in a 

dry location only

, grounded and properly 

protected by an over current device such as a circuit breaker or fuse.

This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is 
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate 
disinfection before or after the system.

LEAD PIPEWORK

Where lead pipework exists downstream of the proposed location of the 
water softener, we advise you ask the local water authority for advice 
on the replacement of lead pipework.

European Directive 2002/96/EC requires all electrical and 
electronic equipment to be disposed of according to Waste 
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (

WEEE RM05711

requirements.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits

for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. 
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of  the following measures:
•  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that

to which the receiver is connected.

•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by EcoWater Systems
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
