Where to Install the Softener

Consider the following points when determining where to install the 

water softener:
•   Place the system as close as possible to a sewer drain.
•   Do not install the softener where it would block access to the water 

heater, or access to the main water shutoff, water meter, or electri-

cal panels. 

•  Keep outside faucets on hard water to save soft water and salt.
•  Install the softener in a place where water damage is least likely to 

occur if a leak develops.

•  A 120VAC electrical outlet is needed to plug in the transformer. If 

the outlet is remote (up to 100 feet), use 18 gauge wire to connect.

•  Always connect the system to the main water supply pipe before 

the water heater.

•   Install the system where it will not be subject to temperatures 

outside of the limits stated in the Specification section or to direct 

sunlight.

Determine Hardness Setting

Municipal Water

It is recommended that you call your local water company to deter-

mine your water hardness in grains per gallon and iron in mg/l (or 

ppm). 

Well Water

It is recommended that you have your water tested professionally for 

accurate hardness and iron content.
