The distributor tube should be cut 13 mm above the top of tank (mini: 10mm, maxi: 16 mm). Chamfer
the top of tube, in order to avoid damaging the O’Ring.
Lubricate the top of tube with Capper’s silicon grease exclusively to facilitate the installation. Other lubricant
may damage plastic parts and may not comply with potable water regulations. Spray cans of lubricant are
prohibited.

Hand tighten the valve onto the tank. Never use extra tools nor levers that apply excessive force on
components. Do not apply grease on the main thread as it could result in over-torque and excessive stress
on plastic components.

Connect the drain hose barb on top of the valve to the drain with a plastic tube Ø 13 mm ID.
A screw clamp can be used to secure the assembly of the tube. Tighten the clamp moderately to
prevent over stress.

Connect the brine tube to the valve. Use a Ø 9,52 (3/8'') OD tube. Assembly with the quick connection
system fitted on the valve doesn’t require any tool.

- Make sure that the system is in bypass position.
- Slowly open a tap downstream to the installation and let water flow for 1 minute to evacuate foreign
materials from the pipes. When water is clear, close the tap.
- Set the bypass in service position to fill the system with water. The water flows through the system.
When the system is full (noise is stopped), open a cold water tap to flush the air from the system.
- When the water is perfectly clear, close the tap.
