Figure 6. Piping Diagram
1. Locate the softener tank and brine tank close to a drain where the system will be installed. The surface should be clean and
level.
2. Perform all plumbing according to local plumbing codes.
Use a ½” minimum pipe or tubing size for the drain line
Use a ¾” pipe or tubing for backwash flow rates that exceed 7 gpm or length that exceeds 20ft (6 m)
ON COPPER PLUMBING SYSTEMS BE SURE TO INSTALL A GROUNDING WIRE BETWEEN THE INLET AND OUTLET PIPING TO
MAINTAIN GROUNDING.
3. Any solder joints near the valve must be done before connecting any piping to the valve. Always leave at least 6" (152 mm)
between the valve and joints when soldering pipes that are connected to the valve. Failure to do this could cause damage to
the valve.
4. If the valve is not installed on the tank, cut the 1” central pipe flush with top of each tank. Lubricate the large o-ring on the
valve that seals against the tank. Screw the valve on to the tank. Be careful to not cross thread the valve into the tank. Only
use silicone lubricant.
5. Connect the drain line to the valve.
6. Connect the brine line from the valve to the air check / safety elbow as per figure 7. Double check to make sure all
connections are assembled correctly and the brass and plastic nuts are tight and secure to prevent leaks.
