HOMEOWNER WITH SUITABLE PLUMBING KNOWLEDGE CAN INSTALL THIS SYSTEM.
IN ALL CASES, IT IS CRITICAL THAT THE INSTALLATION BE DONE IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL APPLICABLE PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL
CODES. BE SURE TO OBTAIN ALL REQUIRED PERMITS. IF THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
THE APPLICABLE CODES ARE IN CONFLICT, THE RELEVANT PLUMBING/ELECTRICAL
CODE SHALL BE FOLLOWED. EQUIPMENT FAILURE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE CAN RESULT IF THIS EQUIPMENT IS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY.
KEEP THE MEDIA TANKS UPRIGHT AT ALL TIMES.
IF POSSIBLE, WE RECOMMEND THAT PEX OR CPVC PIPE BE USED FOR ALL NEW
PLUMBING PIPE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE INSTALLATION. THIS IS BECAUSE
NEW COPPER WATER LINES MAY RELEASE SOME COPPER IONS INTO THE WATER FOR
SEVERAL WEEKS AFTER INSTALLATION AND THESE IONS CAN HAVE A NEGATIVE
IMPACT ON THE ECOTAC™ MEDIA. TO FURTHER MINIMIZE ANY PROBLEMS WITH
COPPER, AVOID APPLYING EXCESS FLUX ON THE INNER SURFACES OF THE PIPE AND
USE A LOW-CORROSIVITY WATER SOLUBLE FLUX LISTED UNDER THE ASTM B813
STANDARD. FOR HOMES WITH SIGNIFICANT NEWLY INSTALLED COPPER PIPES PRIOR
TO THE ECOTAC™ UNIT, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT INSTALLATION OF THE SYSTEM
BE POSTPONED FOR 3-4 WEEKS TO ALLOW A PROTECTIVE COATING TO FORM ON THE
NEW COPPER PIPES.
John Guest® Quick-Connect Style Fittings
Several steps in the installation use a special type of quick connect fitting made by
John Guest®. To connect a John Guest® fitting, unlock the fitting by turning the collet
counter-clockwise until the fitting loosens. A small gap will open between the collet
and the back of the fitting. Push the tube firmly into the fitting as far as it will go. Turn
the collet clockwise until tight to secure the fitting. Pull out on the tube to ensure a
good connection has been made. The pipe can be removed from the fitting by
loosening the collet again and depressing the collar evenly while pulling outward on
the tube.
