STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO PLUMBING
THE SOFTENER
PLUMBING
Turn off the water supply at the incoming main and begin plumbing
as per the installation instructions on pages 5.
FIT THE BYPASS KIT (IF INCLUDED)
Cut off the rising main and install the inlet tee with check valve.
Next, plumb the bypass, inlet and outlet valves so that the water supply
can be turned back on. Use the blue valve for the inlet, the blue valve
for the outlet and the grey valve as the bypass. Before turning the
water back on, make sure the bypass is open and the inlet and outlet
valves are closed. This will allow water to pass directly to the household
system without it diverting to the water softener. (The use of the plastic
plumbing fittings with copper pipe may affect the electrical earthing or
bonding of the copper pipe. If in doubt, we advise that you contact a
qualified electrician for advice).
To bypass softener
, ensure bypass is open (horizontal) as per
right hand diagram below.

SECURE THE ADAPTOR ELBOW
Ensure o-rings are lubricated and in place before snapping the two large
hold clips into place, from the top down (see top illustration opposite).
Be sure they snap firmly into place so that the adaptors will not pull out.
Pull on the adaptors to assure a tight fit has been achieved.
INLET AND OUTLET CONNECTIONS:
(For unvented or direct systems refer to page 5).
Use the connecting hoses provided with the elbow unions to make the
inlet and outlet connections. For ease of connection the straight ends
may be connected to isolating valves or elbow unions. Fit the filter discs
into the straight union end of the inlet/outlet hoses.
DRAIN OUTLET/OVERFLOW CONNECTION:
Insert the rubber grommet into the overflow socket situated 2/3 of the
way up the rear of the water softener cabinet. Only insert the overflow
adaptor using the silicone grease provided once the grommet is secure.
Cut two lengths of hose as required to make the drain and overflow
connections.
Fit one length of hose onto the overflow adaptor and one length onto the
drain line adaptor.
Turn the drain line adaptor so that a straight connection can be made.
The drain hose and overflow hose must be secured with the supplied
metal clamps(see illustration opposite). Pass the overflow hose
through a hole in an outside wall so that its end can be seen. The drain
hose may be connected directly into an open drain, and air gap of
20mm must always be maintained. The drain and overflow must not be
kinked.
Please Remember
–
Only use tablet or pellet salt in your softener!
