Introduction

The Watts residential OneFlow

®

 system provides protec-

tion from hardness related scale formation throughout the 

plumbing system. The OneFlow

®

 system can be installed at 

the point of entry to treat your entire home. These systems 

are designed to treat the domestic water used in a single 

family dwelling. For higher volume applications please con-

tact your Watts representative.
OneFlow

®

 reduces or eliminates scale formation on internal 

plumbing surfaces.
OneFlow

®

 prevents scale by transforming the normal dis-

solved hardness minerals into undissolved crystal micro-

particles. These crystals stay suspended in the water and 

have a reduced ability to react and attach to surfaces like 

dissolved hardness minerals do. Therefore, the problem of 

internal buildup of scale in pipes, water heaters and plumb-

ing fixtures is greatly reduced.
Unlike softened water, OneFlow

®

 treated water maintains the 

beneficial essential mineral content of your water.

•  Use only lead-free solder and flux for sweat-solder connections, 

as required by state, province and federal codes.

•  Handle all components of the system with care. Do not drop, 

drag or turn components upside down.

•  Be sure the floor under the system is clean, level and strong 

enough to support the unit.

• Install the system in a protected area.
•  Do not attempt to treat water over 100°F (38°C) with the system.
•  Always connect the system to the main water supply pipe before 

the water heater.

•  Do not expose the system to freezing temperatures. Water freez-

ing in the system causes equipment damage.

•  Do not install in direct sunlight. Ultraviolet rays from the sun may 

cause damage.
