Installation
1.
Review
your
packing
list
and
make
sure
you
have
received
all
the
parts
before
beginning
installation.
2.
If
you
are
going
to
be
turning
off
the
water
to
the
house
and
you
have
an
electric
water
heater,
shut
off
the
power
to
the
water
heater
before
beginning
installation
in
case
water
heater
is
accidentially
drained.
3.
Pick
a
suitable
location
for
your
filter
system
on
a
dry
level
spot
where
it
won’t
be
exposed
to
freezing
temperatures.
A
minimum
of
20
PSI
is
required.
Maximum
pressure
is
90
PSI.
4.
Get
all
of
your
plumbing
parts
together
before
beginning
installation.
Installation
typically
takes
3
to
5
hours.
However
after
installation
the
Pro
‐
OX
Pro
‐
OX
Filter
must
be
allowed
to
run
through
a
complete
backwash
and
rinse
cycle.
5.
After
the
system
is
installed
and
running,
your
water
may
be
discolored,
or
full
of
sediment
or
rust,
particularly
if
this
is
older
or
corroded
piping.
Typically
this
clears
up
over
a
day
or
two.
Best
Practices
for
Piping
&
Drain
Installation
1.
See
typical
installation
(see
Fig
2).
The
Pro
‐
OX
filter
is
installed
after
the
pressure
tank.
If
you
are
also
installing
a
water
softener,
install
the
softener
after
the
Pro
‐
OX
filter.
2.
Make
sure
to
follow
to
connect
the
in
pipe
to
the
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
inlet
and
the
outlet
to
the
outlet
(see
Fig
2).
As
you
face
the
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
control
from
the
front,
the
water
enters
on
the
right
and
exits
on
the
left.
From
the
back
(see
Fig
2)
the
water
enters
on
the
left.
The
inlet
and
outlet
are
attached
to
the
bypass
valve
which
is
marked
with
arrows
as
well.
3.
Make
sure
there
is
a
working
gate
or
ball
valve
before
the
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
Pro
‐
OX
filter
and
also
one
after
as
shown
in
the
diagram
Fig
2.
The
pressure
gauges
are
optional
and
perhaps
not
necessary
but
a
hose
bib
(which
is
a
faucet
that
you
can
attach
a
garden
hose
to)
is
strongly
recommended
after
the
Pro
‐
OX
filter
before
the
second
ball
valve.
This
makes
it
easy
to
rinse
your
new
Pro
‐
OX
filter
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
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
control
valve.
Avoid
heating
up
the
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
control
valve
plastic
with
the
torch.
5.
You
do
not
need
unions
to
install
your
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
control.
If
you
need
to
remove
it,
the
Fleck
7000
‐
SXT
has
quick
‐
release
couplings
that
make
it
easy
to
put
the
Pro
‐
OX
Pro
‐
OX
filter
on
by
‐
pass
and
remove
the
filter
system
from
the
piping.
