Outside faucets used to water lawns and gardens should not
supply untreated water. A new water line is often required
to be connected to supply untreated water to the inlet of the
water filter and to the outside faucets.
Cut the water line between where it enters the house and
before any lines that branch off to feed the hot water heater or
other fixtures in the house and as near the desired location of
the water filter as possible. Install a tee fitting on the feed end
of the cut pipe, and an elbow fitting on the other end. Install
piping from the tee to the inlet of the water filter and from
the elbow to the outlet of the filter. To sever the water lines
which branch off to feed any outside faucets, cut the branch
lines approximately two inches from the fitting on the main
water line. Install an elbow on the end of the pipe nearest the
outside faucet and a cap on the end connected to the existing
water line. Install piping from the tee installed on the inlet
line to the water filter to the elbow installed on the pipe to the
outside faucet. Following this procedure will result in all lines
in the house, with the exception of the outside faucets, but
including the water heater and therefore the hot water lines,
being supplied with treated water.
Make sure the bypass is attached well to the control valve.
Connect the straight or elbow connectors to the bypass with
red clips. Connect the inlet and outlet of the water filter to
the plumbing of the house. The control valve must not be
submitted to temperatures above 43°C (110°F). When sweat
fittings are used, to avoid damaging the control valve, solder
the threaded copper adaptors to the copper pipe and then,
using Teflon tape, screw the assembly into the bypass valve.
Do not use pipe thread compound as it may attack the
material
in the valve body.
Make sure both
brass and plastic
nuts are tightened
well
3. MEDIA INSTALLATION
Inspect and check that the brine line plug is
connected to the valve.
NOTICE
Ensure that the brass and plastic nut connected
to the air check assembly is tight.
NOTICE
4. CONNECT DRAIN LINE:
Clips
Open the inlet on the bypass valve slightly and very slowly allow
water to enter the unit. (If the water enters too quickly it will
push the media or carbon up into the control valve and get
plugged).
Once the unit has filled sufficiently that water is at least equal to
the height of the top of the media shut down the water for 15 – 20
minutes for the carbon to soak. Unplug the power cable. After the
carbon has soaked for the recommended time continue by plugging
the power cable back in.
4b. (Other Models) Open the inlet on the bypass valve slowly and
allow water to enter the unit. (The outlet of the bypass should
remain closed to prevent any fines or debris from entering the
plumbing system. Allow all air to escape from the unit before
turning the water on fully then allow water to run to drain for 3-4
minutes.
5. Unplug the power cord from the power supply, open inlet. Check
the drain line flow. Allow the water to run for 30 minutes.
6. Plug in the valve and the valve will automatically advance to the
SERVICE position. Open the outlet valve on the bypass, then slowly
open the nearest treated water faucet and allow the water to run
until clear, close the tap and replace the faucet screen.
7. The Valve is already programmed from factory for AIO Models.
Please set up date and time of day as shown on next page.
(CARBON UNITS – MODEL TO)
A)
Using plumbers tape, screw the 1/2” hose barb and attach
o-ring into the drain port in the valve.
B)
Attach 1/2” drain hose to the hose barb. and tighten
securely with a hose clamp.
C
) Run the drain line to a floor drain or a laundry drain.
Complete any necessary plumbing.
