System Installation
11. Put the appropriate amount of salt in each brine tank. Do Not
fill the salt level past the brine well lid.
12. Fully open the outlet isolation valve(s).
13. Ensure the bypass valve is in the closed position.
14. Check for leaks and repair as needed.
15. Allow water to flow from the hot and cold side treated faucet
until all air has been purged from the plumbing system. Then
close both the hot and cold side treated water faucet.
16. Turn on water heaters.
Start up is now complete and the system is ready for operation.
Start Up Instructions
1. Ensure all inlet and outlet isolation valves and the bypass
valves are in the closed position and the treated water faucet
hot and cold side are in the open position.
2. Open the main water supply valve to the building.
3. Check for leaks and repair as needed.
4. Plug the power cord of the control valve into an electrical
outlet to energize system.
5. Locate “Manually Initiating a Regeneration” on page 19 of
this manual and follow the steps to place the system into the
backwash position. Once the system cycles into the back-
wash position, unplug the control valve from the power outlet
to keep the system in the backwash position.
6. Open the inlet isolation valve slightly until water can be heard
flowing through the isolation valve and allow the mineral tank
to fill with water. Air will come out of the drain line until the
mineral tank is full of water. Once water flow at the drain line
is observed, fully open the inlet valve and allow water flow
to drain for 10 minutes to flush the resin bed of any color. If
water at the drain shows any discoloration, continue to flush
the resin bed until water at the drain is clear.
7. After resin bed flushing is complete, plug the system back in
to the power outlet so that it will return to the service position.
Repeat steps 4, 5, 6 and 7 on the other tank(s) if this is a Series
PWS30-2 Duplex Alternating or PWS30-P Progressive system.
8. For PWS30-P or PWS30-2 series systems, connect the
factory supplied inner-connecting communication cable(s)
between the P1 and P3 ports of the control valve’s controllers
shown on pages 15 & 16.
9. Program each control valve according to the Master
Programming section beginning on page 22. See page 21 for
definitions of system number types.
10. Put the appropriate amount of water in the brine tank(s). This
is accomplished by manually cycling the control valve(s) to
cycle step 4 “Brine Tank Refill” and allowing a complete brine
tank refill cycle to conclude. This step must be done for each
brine tank in the system only after the proper brine tank refill
time has been programmed into each controller.
