Note:
Before turning on the water to the valve, rotate the
two handles on the bypass valve 2-3 times. This will help
seat the O-rings and prevent leaking.
If the plumbing to the conditioner is metal, a ground strap
must be installed.
The plumbing must be self supporting and secure to
prevent movement. A piece of metal or a ground strap is
secured to both the inlet and outlet pipes, Figure 10.
Figure 10 Grounding Strap
WARNING:
T
he inlet water must be
connected to the inlet port of the valve.
When replacing non-Autotrol valves, the
inlet and outlet may be reversed. It is also
possible for the plumbing to be installed in
an opposite order.
Do not solder pipes with lead-based solder.
WARNING:
Do not use tools to tighten
plastic fittings. Over time, stress may break
the connections. When the 1265 bypass is
used, only hand tighten the nuts.
WARNING: Do not use petroleum grease
on gaskets when connecting bypass
plumbing. Use only 100% silicone grease
products when installing any AvantaPure
brand valve. Non-silicone grease may cause
plastic components to fail over time.
Note: Several tube adapters are available to connect the
valve to the water plumbing. See Parts List .
