-Filter Location / Other Requirements-
• Locate the unit near an unswitched, 120 volt / 60 Hz grounded electrical outlet.
• Check for distance and proper drain installation (e.g. floor drain, washing machine standpipe).
• Determine type and size of piping required for softener connection (e.g. copper, galvanized, PVC plastic).
Note:
Where the drain line is elevated above the control valve or exceeds 20 feet in length to reach the drain, use 3/4”
I.D. drain line tubing of 1/2” I.D. Drain line tubing is not included.
Caution:
If sweat soldering copper pipe, (remember to always use lead free solder and flux) cover yoke and bypass valve
with wet rags to prevent heat damage to connections and control valve! If using PVC or plastic pipe, primers
and solvent cements specifically recommended for use with potable water are required.
Note:
All plumbing lines not requiring soft water should be connected upstream of the filter. (See Typical Installation
Diagrams.)
-Installation Procedure-
-Water Supply Connection and Bypass Valve-
To allow for filter servicing, swimming pool filling or lawn sprinkling, a manual bypass valve has been installed at the
factory. The bypass allows raw water to be manually routed around the filter.
1. Position filter at desired location for installation. If a water softener is to be installed, the filter should be positioned first
and then the softener. (See Installation Diagrams.)
2. The filter material is shipped separately from the mineral tank. The tank must be loaded with material after tank has
been placed at the desired location.
a. Remove the control valve by unscrewing from the tank.
b. Remove and inspect distributor tube and bottom basket.
c. Replace distributor tube and use a cork or tape to place over top of distributor tube to prevent mineral from
entering tube while filling.
d. Place mineral funnel in hole on top of tank.
e. Pour several gallons of water in the tank.
Caution:
Not following this procedure can cause damage to distributor tube or basket when loading material!
f. First pour in the filter material.
Note:
The required quantity of gravel is in the tank already.
g. After filling the tank with material, use a garden hose or several buckets to fill the tank with water.
Note:
This will permit the filtering material to become soaked while preparing the installation and will prevent the control
valve from being plugged with floating material on initial backwash.
h. Remove funnel and clean filter material from tank threads.
i. Remove cork or tape from distributor tube.
j. Replace control valve on mineral tank.
Caution:
Be extremely careful to position distributor tube into control valve distributor tube pilot hole.
3. Turn off main water supply and open nearest faucet to relieve pressure.
4. Cut main line and install elbows and extensions. Inlet and outlet connections on the control valve are 3/4” FNPT.
Note:
An optional 1” FNPT bypass is available.
Caution:
Raised arrows located on the sides of control valve body and bypass valve indicate proper direction of water
flow. Install inlet and outlet piping in direction of arrows.
5. Rotate handle on bypass valve to the bypass position (position of handle is across inlet/outlet piping).
6. Turn the main supply line on to restore water service to the home.
7. Open nearest faucet to evacuate air and repressurize plumbing lines.
8. Check for leaks!
