Best Practices for Piping & Drain Installation
1. See typical installation diagrams on Page 5.
2. Make sure to connect the IN pipe to the 5900S inlet and the OUT to the outlet (see Fig 3). As
you face the 5900S control from the front, the water enters on the right and exits on the left.
From the back (see Fig 3) the water enters on the left and exits on the right. The inlet and
outlet are attached to the bypass valve which is marked with arrows as well.
3. Make sure there is a hose bib and working gate or ball valve before the 5900S Softener and
also one after as shown in the diagram (Fig 2). The pressure gauges are optional but
a hose
bib (a faucet that you can attach a garden hose to) is strongly recommended after the
softener and before the second ball valve. This makes it easy to rinse your new softener on
start-up and gives you a place to test the water before it enters your household plumbing.
4. If you will be using copper piping, do not sweat the copper pipe directly on to the 5900S
control valve. Avoid heating up the 5900S control valve plastic with the torch.
5. You do not need unions to install your 5900S control. If you need to remove it, the 5900S has
quick-release couplings that make it easy to put the softener on by-pass and remove the
filter system from the piping.
6. The drain line tubing is not supplied. You will need flexible 5/8” ID tubing. Note that the drain
can run up above the 5900S control and into a drain, it does not have to drain down, as the
filter backwashes under line pressure from your well pump. Most plumbing codes require an
air-gap connection, so that if your sewer or septic tank backs up, it cannot cross connect with
the drain tubing.
