NOTICE
4. Connect the cold water supply to the inlet of the
AquaSolve system. Install an inlet water supply
valve (user supplied) in this line and close it.
NOTE: The AquaSolve system operates in
the UP-FLOW mode which is opposite of a
conventional softener.
5. Place a bucket under the outlet port or run a line
from the outlet port to a drain.
6. Turn the main water supply valve back on. Slightly
open the inlet supply valve (user supplied) to
the AquaSolve system. Slowly place AquaSolve
By-Pass Valve into Service position (see image
above for reference). Allow the tank to fill with
water. Close the supply valve when a steady stream
of water comes out of the outlet port. If the outlet is
flowing into a bucket, water could splash on nearby
objects. If this threatens the safety, value, structure,
or appearance of these objects, protect/remove
them or use the outlet hose to drain option.
7. Connect the outlet of the AquaSolve system to the
cold water supply to the building. Install an outlet
valve (user supplied) in this line and close it.
8. Slowly, fully open the outlet and supply valves to
the AquaSolve system.
9. Open hot and cold faucets downstream from
the AquaSolve system to relieve any air from the
plumbing system. Then close the faucets.
10. Check for leaks. Repair as needed.
Installation and Start-Up
1. Turn off the main water supply to the plumbing and
open an inside faucet to relieve any pressure within
the plumbing system. Close the inside faucet once
pressure is released.
2. Place the system in the desired location. Make sure
that the location is level and sturdy enough to sup-
port the weight of the system while in operation.
3. Attach the stainless steel bypass valve assembly to
the tank head and secure in place with the bypass
clips and screws. Hand tighten screws. See bottom
right of page 5 for assembly image. Use caution
not to pinch interconnector O-rings in the assembly
process.
