the fitting first to make sure you line up the drain line properly with the drain port on the
control valve if you are using rigid pipe.
Re-insert the DLFC into the control valve and securely lock into place with the retaining clip
when done.
Ensure that the drain line is thoroughly secured along its route to the drain. The drain line
will be under pressure when the backwash cycle is working. If not adequately secured, the
drain line could vibrate during backwash causing excessive noise. If this is experienced, use
additional fixtures to better secure the drain line.
Step 7 – Brine Tank Connections
To complete the connection of the control valve to the brine tank, you will require the black
brine tubing and numerous parts from the small parts bag. We recommend that the brine
tank be located as close as possible to the treatment tank and control valve, however, it can
be up to 10 feet away if necessary.
Locate the brine port on the right side of your Fleck 5810 control valve (when facing the front
of the control valve).
