-Installation Procedure-
- Water Supply Connections and Bypass Valve -
To allow for softener servicing, swimming pool filling or lawn sprinkling, a manual bypass valve has been installed
at the factory. The bypass allows hard water to be manually routed around the softener.
1. Position softener at desired location for installation. (See Installation Diagrams.)
2. The filter material is shipped separately from the mineral tank. The top tank must be loaded with material after unit
has been placed at the desired location.
A. Remove the control valve by unscrewing from the tank. Do not fill through dome hole.
B. Use cap provided to place over top of distributor tube to prevent material from entering tube while filling.
C. Place media funnel (part # U-1006) in hole on top of tank.
D. Pour several gallons of water in the tank. (Fill until upper chamber is about 1/3 full.)
E. Pour in the required filter media. No gravel is required. The required quantity of media is listed in the
Optimizer™ specifications.
F. 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 media to become soaked while preparing the installation and will prevent the control
valve from being plugged with floating material on initial backwash.
G. Remove funnel and clean filter media from tank threads.
H. Remove cap from distributor tube.
I. Replace control valve on mineral tank. Do not use Teflon tape or paste on valve threads, as the valve to tank
o-ring seals this joint.
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 appropriate elbows and extensions. Inlet and outlet connections on the control valve are 3/4”
FNPT.
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. It is recommended that a vacuum breaker be
installed on the inlet plumbing.
5. Rotate bypass valve to the bypass position (position of lever is at right angle to 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!
