All government codes and regulations governing the installation of these devices must be observed.

 If the ground from the electrical panel or breaker box to the water meter or underground copper pipe is

tied to the copper water lines and these lines are cut during installation of the Noryl bypass valve and/or poly pipe, an

approved grounding strap must be used between the two lines that have been cut in order to maintain continuity. The

length of the grounding strap will depend upon the number of units being installed and/or the amount of copper pipe

being replaced with poly. See Figure 1.

In all cases where metal pipe was originally used and is later interrupted by poly pipe or the Noryl bypass valve as in

Figure 1 or by physical separation as in Figure 2, an approved ground clamp with no less than #6

copper conductor must

be used for continuity,

to maintain proper metallic pipe bonding.

Check your local electrical code for the correct clamp and cable size.

1. Determine the best location for your water filter, bearing in mind the location of your water supply lines, drain line

and 120 volt AC electrical outlet. Subjecting the softener to freezing or temperatures above 110°F (43° C) will void

the warranty.

  Some units are shipped with the media bed in separate bags. To install, unscrew the control valve from

the top of the fiberglass tank, position the riser tube in the center of the tank lugging the tube with a cloth and pour

the media into the tank in the following order: coarse, fine gravel and then the filter media. Remove the cloth and

carefully screw the valve into the tank (When replacing the media, the tank must first be inverted and the old media

bed removed. See instructions provided with the replacement media).
