Installation Instructions
Unscrew the Heads from the Canisters. Liberally apply the pipe thread compound to the taped SharkBites®. Place the SharkBites®
into the Canister Heads. Do not over tighten. Position the Heads with the Red Pressure Release Button on the left which is the Inlet
side. Attach the 10” Canister Heads to the Mounting Cover using the lag bolts. Position the cover to line up the bolt patterns and the
pressure release buttons (See Figure 1). (DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN)
Line up the Ion to DAWS Pipe Assembly to insert the pipe. Press the pipe in up to the mark on the pipe (See figure 2 and 3). Repeat

Tools & Parts Needed
■ Adjustable Wrench
■ Flathead Screwdriver
■ ½” Nut Driver
■ Optional ByPass Assembly. Obtain kit by
contacting location where your HydroCare
DAWS was purchased.
Installation Requirements
■ Properly tighten all fittings to ensure a leak-free assembly.
■ The system should be located after connection for the outside hose bibs,
sprinkler system(s), and/or irrigation line(s). These lines should be left
untreated.
■ Install in a location that is not susceptible to freezing temperatures as damage
to the Canister could occur.
■ Install away from direct sunlight as prolonged exposure to light can weaken
plastic components.
■ The system needs to be mounted to a solid surface using wall mount screws
(cover is drilled for 16 inches on center). For additional stability, use 2 X 6
board connected to studs and mount unit to boards.
■ Allow a minimum of 4” clear space below unit to facilitate insert change.
■ You may consider an optional ByPass Assembly with additional shutoff
valves for convenience when changing the inserts.
