Installation
Tighten the tank head
*It is very important to use flexible connections on the inlet and
outlet plumbing in the horizontal orientation as shown in the
images on this page. The tanks expand and contract with water
pressure fluctuations. Flexible connectors will prevent plumbing
and tank leaks. The EDP code for the suggested PVI 2” Flexible
Connectors is C515285 (Two are included and required for instal-
lation).
Anytime AquaSolve systems are installed above the ground floor
of a building it is recommended that a vacuum relief valve also be
installed to protect against tank collapse in the event the plumb-
ing system is drained. If a vacuum relief valve is not used then the
system should be placed in bypass anytime the plumbing system
is drained. The EDP code for the suggested vacuum relief valve is
0556031 (not included). The vacuum relief valve should be
installed on the outlet of the system.
NOTICE
• We recommend the installation of a dual-union ball-valve on
the inlet and outlet to isolate the tank for servicing.
• A full bypass should be installed so that the full service flow
can be routed around the system as needed for servicing.
NOTICE
Install Piping
Connect the inlet and outlet plumbing according to
your preferences and any applicable local codes.
Include sample/drain ports with hose-bibb connec-
tions on the inlet and outlet piping to facilitate startup
and service.
Support the Piping
2 inch Flex Connectors must be installed horizontally not vertically
in the water pipe line. The full weight of the piping and valves must
be supported by uni-strut, pipe hangers or other means. The tank
connections cannot support the weight of the piping. The image
below for a multi-tank system installation shows properly support-
ed piping.
WARNING
Start-Up
Connect a hose to the hose bibb on the outlet of
the tank. Run the hose to a drain and open the hose
bibb.
Slowly/partially open the supply water ball valve.
Allow the tank to slowly fill with water. When a
Fill in install date and rebed due date on product label located

Multi-Bank Systems
steady stream of water appears at the drain, close
the supply valve and hose bibb.
Open the inlet and outlet valves on the system.
Transfer the bypass valves from Bypass to the
Service position. Open a nearby faucet downstream
from the AquaSolve system to relieve any air.
Check for leaks. Repair as needed.
Check the head on top of the tank. It’s common for it to loosen
during shipment. Tighten the head with a strap wrench as needed.
