Any solder joints being soldered near the valve must be done before connecting any piping
to the valves. Always leave at least 6" (152 mm) between the control valve and joints being
soldered when soldering pipes that are connected to the valves. Failure to do this could
cause damage to the valves.
The Fusion Backwashing Filter is equipped with 1” removable connectors. It is recommend-
ed that these connectors are installed in the plumbing fitting using Teflon tape then lubricate
the o-ring on the connector. Remove the red clips and push the connectors into the bypass
valve once they are tight in the plumbing fitting. The red clips can then be re-installed to se-
cure the connectors in the bypass valve.
The inlet and outlet can be identified on the bypass valve. There are arrows stamped in the
bypass valve showing flow direction. The arrow pointing toward the valve is the inlet and the
arrow pointing away from the valve is the outlet
1.
Apply Teflon tape to the inlet and outlet connectors and install the inlet and outlet con-
nectors in the control valve. Connect the plumbing.
All piping should be secured to prevent stress on the bypass valve and connectors.
