INSTALLATION FOR OPTIONAL CARBON TANK:
INSTALLATION FOR CONTROL HEAD AND BYPASS VALVE:
(FOLLOW THESE STEPS BELOW AFTER YOU HAVE POSITIONED WHERE YOU WANT THE TANK (S) TO GO)
1.
First, unscrew cap on top of Carbon Tank and remove the plug or tape off of the distributor tube. (Make sure
that the distributor tube is flush with the top of the tank.)
2.
Now, take the Control Head and the ByPass Valve and connect them together:
– Lightly lubricate the o-ring seal on the ByPass Valve & Control Head. (NOTE: only use silicone lubricant.)
– Remove the two metal screws that hold the clips in place. (Shown on page 5)
– Position the two ports, as noted below, and secure bypass valve with the two metal clips to the control
head (page 5). For now, leave the valve on “ByPass” mode.
3.
Next, attach the collector screen to the lock connection and screw the control head onto the tank.
(DO NOT over-tighten control head to tank. It does not need to be airtight.)
4.
Connect the 3/8 drain line to the Back Wash connection on the back of the control head (see page 5). Con-
nect this line to a drain pipe.
5.
Turn on main water supply. Open a cold water faucet in the house and let water run a few minutes
or until the system is free of foreign material (usually solder) resulting from the plumbing installation.
NOTE:
If you are going to install a Water Softener after the Carbon Tank, follow steps 1-3 for installation
of ByPass Valve on Softener Control Head, then proceed to page 7.
WARNING: If you are installing a Water Softener after the Carbon Tank, keep the WS valve in “ByPass” mode
when doing step 4 AND when setting the startup procedure on page 6.
