III. Installation Safety Guide • • Handle with care when moving the water filtration system. Do not turn upside down, drop, drag, or set on areas with sharp protrusions. All of our media tanks have level adjusting tank bases. These tanks are designed to work with a “floating” base. This allows the tank to be leveled on any surface. Some applications may not have level surface to place the tank. The floating base allows the tank to be leveled within the base and ensure proper operation.
INSTALLING THE SYSTEM IMPORTANT! Locate and test the main water supply valve to the housing before installing the system. If the main water supply valve fails to shut off the water completely during the test, we recommend contacting your local plumber to fix the valve before begin installing the system. WARNING! If this system is install in a metal (Conductive) plumbing system, i.c. copper or galvanized metal, the plastic components of the system will interrupt the continuity of the plumbing system.
IMPORTANT! For maximum effectiveness and to lengthen the system life the pre-filter system should always be placed before the treatment system. STEP 1. Checking the Direction of Water Flow 1. Inspect your water flow and determine if water is flowing from left to right or right to left. 2. If needed, reassemble the mounting bracket for the pleated sediment filter if the direction is opposite of where the mounting bracket is facing. 3.
STEP 3. Mounting the Pre-Filter 1. Position the system on the wall at the desired mounting location with minimum of six (6) inches of ground clearance from the floor to the base of the system. 2. Using a pen or pencil and mark the mounting hole on the back of the bracket onto the wall. Note: Please make sure the bracket mount is leveled using a leveling tool to ensure evenly distributed stress on the bracket. Make sure the mounting point is position on a stud to properly secure the bracket. 3.
STEP 6. Attaching the Water Supply Pipe to the Treatment System 1. Place the blue gasket in between the valve body and the adapter. Screw the adapter into the valve body. 2. Apply the same procedure to all three openings. Note: Make sure the o-ring is inside the housing and do not over tightening the housing. STEP 7. Mounting the Valve Body onto the Media Tank 1. Apply a small amount of lubricant onto the o-ring of the valve body. (Do not apply lubricant on the thread.) 2.
STEP 7 (Continued...). Mounting the Valve Body onto the Media Tank 4. Place the upper basket over the riser tube and push the valve on the tank Thread the valve on the tank by turning clockwise. Be sure not to cross-thread the valve. 5. Tighten the vale hand tight, then snug it further by tapping it with the palm of the hand. do not use tools to tighten the valve or damage could occur. STEP 8. Connecting the Plumbing onto the Valve 1.
STEP 9. System Startup WARNING! Immediately shut off the main water supply valve if there are leaks. Check the leak area and see if there’s a loose connection or if more Teflon tape is needed to prevent leaks from happening. 1. Find the nearest water faucet and remove the aerator or grid mesh on the faucet. Turn on the faucet before turning on the main water line to allow water to flow through. 2. Place the Fortitude Pro Series on Fast Rinse setting. 3.
