Other Materials Needed
The Upstream requires four # 12 to 1/4” diameter fasteners (not provided) to
mount to a wall.
It also requires male NPT fittings for the hose connections and also for the
optional solenoid valve (1”or 1.5”). The Upstream unit requires a drain for purge
valve discharge line. These fittings, pipe insulation, and any piping compatible
with the plumbing should be on hand before you begin installation. See Figure 1B
and make a list of all necessary components including solder, paste and thread
sealant. Bypass piping and valves that isolate the unit are optional, (but
recommended) as is a drain valve for draining the unit.
Pipe insulation is to be wrapped around the top hose and any other piping
overhead to prevent condensation from dripping back onto the unit.
Note:
Teflon tape and thread sealant are not required to connect the Stainless
flexible hoses to the Upstream or to the plumbing system – the FIP connectors
mate with male NPT (National Pipe-Taper) fittings. The rubber washer in each
end of the hose provides the seal. Ensure that the washer is in place before
making the connection.
Tools Needed
pipe cutter, torch and other typical plumbing tools for modifying piping
Wrench for tightening hose connections
Phillips screwdriver
Slotted screwdriver
Do not operate a unit that has been damaged or that is missing any components.
If a part is missing from your Upstream, contact your dealer
.
The installation of the Upstream (see Figures 1A through 1E) should be done in
compliance with all applicable federal, state/provincial, and local regulations. We
recommend that the unit be installed by a qualified service technician. Failure to
install the system properly may result in property damage (leaks/flooding) or
personal injury (electrical shock) and will void warranty.
Location
The unit must be positioned vertically on a wall
(the performance of the system
will be adversely affected if mounted horizontally)
See Figure 1A for
clearances.
The Upstream is intended only for indoor use in a dry location. Should these
minimum installation recommendations not be met, the system will not operate
effectively.
The Upstream should be installed downstream of (after) any pre-treatment
devices such as filters, water softeners etc and also any pressure tanks.
However, it must be installed
upstream of (before) any branches
in the piping
so that
all
the water is disinfected before splitting and distributing throughout the
