INSTALLATION

STEP 5: Connect the Drain Line

If the drain line is a 5/8" flexible poly tube, slide the nut onto

the poly tube, then place the poly tube insert into the end of

the poly tube and tighten the nut on to the 3/4" drain line fit-

ting. The nut is only designed for use with flexible poly tube.

Use other nuts if attaching different materials. Run line to a

drain. Making sure you have a 1 1/2" airgap. You may use a

floor drain, standpipe or any open type drain (see Fig 10).

Do not use Vaseline, oils, or other unacceptable lubricants on

o-rings. A silicon lubricant may be used on the black o-ring.

Use a pliers or crescent wrench to tighten or unscrew the nut.

Do not use a pipe wrench to tighten or loosen nut. Do not use

pipe dope or other sealant on threads. Use Teflon tape on the

threads of the drain line control fitting when installing 3/4"

NPT or 1" straight fitting.

STEP 5: Start-up

Place the bypass valve in the “bypass” position or mode

(see figures 12-14 below.)

Open the main water supply valve.

Open a couple of cold water faucets that are to be conditioned

and let run until air is expelled and pipes are full.

Open the outlet valve of the bypass.

Close the bypass valve.

Press and hold the regen button on the keypad for 3 seconds.

This will put the valve in manual mode. Now press the Regen

button twice.This will put the system in backwash. Slowly open the

inlet valve. (Open the valve a little at a time, pausing several times

to allow the unit to fill slowly and expel air.) When the tank has filled

and a steady flow to the drain is achieved, let the system run until

clear water can be seen coming from the drain line. When water is

clear press the regen button 4 times. This will take the valve back

to service position. Open several cold water and hot water faucets

and let run until hot water heater is full and cold water faucets have

expelled trapped air. Turn electrical power back on or re-light the

hot water heater. Now continue with control valve setup.
