(All electrical & plumbing should be done in accordance to all local codes)
1. LOCATION: Place the filter where you want to install it, making sure it is on a clean, level and firm surface. The plug-in
power adaptor is for dry locations only. Use an uninterrupted electrical outlet installed within 15 feet of the filter. Locate the
filter so the distance between the drain and the filter is as short as possible. Do not install the filter with less than 10 feet of
piping between its outlet and the inlet of a water heater. Do not locate the filter where it or its connections (including the drain
and overflow lines) will ever be subject to room temperatures under 40°F.
2. INLET/OUTLET: Connect to a supply line downstream of outdoor spigots. Install an inlet shutoff valve and plumb to
the unit’s inlet located at the left front as you face the unit. Installation of a bypass valve is recommended. If using plastic
fittings ground the water filter per local electric codes. If a water meter is used, install the water meter on the outlet side
of the control valve. It is recommended that the meter assembly be installed horizontally or in a downflow vertical position
to reduce turbine bearing wear. The turbine assembly may be oriented in any direction, but is usually oriented pointing up
to reduce drainage out of the pipes during service. Remove the cover and drive bracket and thread the water meter cord
through the hole in the back plate. Reinstall the drive bracket. Weave the cord through the hooks on the right hand side of
the drive bracket and connect the end to the three prong connector labeled METER on the printed circuit board. Replace
the cover.
3. A jumper ground wire should be installed between the inlet and outlet pipe whenever the metallic continuity of a
water distribution piping system is interrupted. Install grounding strap on metal pipes.
4. DRAIN: The drain must be able to handle the backwash rate of the filter. Correctly size the drain line for the filter’s drain
line flow control gpm rating. An adapter fitting is supplied with the valve that can connect a 3/4” fitting to be used with drain
line flow controls up to 10 gpm, a 1” fitting to be used with drain line flow controls up to 25 gpm, or a 1-1/2” fitting to be used
with drain line flow controls up to 60 gpm. If soldering, joints near the drain must be done prior to connecting the drain line
flow control fitting. Leave at least 6” between the drain line control fitting and solder joints when soldering pipes that are
connected on the drain line control fitting. Failure to do this could cause interior damage to the drain line flow control fitting.
Avoid elevating the drain line above the control valve where possible. Never insert a drain line directly into a drain, sewer
line, or trap. Always allow an air gap between the drain line and the wastewater receptacle to prevent the possibility
of sewage being back-siphoned into the filter.
