Page 3: Installation Procedure
Softener Location / Other Requirements Locate the unit near an unswitched, 115 volt / 60 Hz grounded electrical outlet. Check for distance and proper drain installation (e.g. floor drain, washing machine standpipe). Determine type and size of piping required for softener connection (e.g. copper, galvanized, PVC plastic). NOTE : If household plumbing is galvanized and you intend to make the installation with cooper (or vice versa), obtain di-electric unions to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion. - Page 4 With the tape in place, install the supplied funnel and start to pour the media in the tank. You will put all the media that was sent to you in the tank. If you received gravel with your unit, you will pour the gravel in first before the softening resin.
- Page 5 at the outlet of the drain line is advisable to keep the drain line full and assure correct flow during regeneration. Elbows or other fittings must be kept at a bare minimum. NOTE : Where the drain line is elevated above the control valve or exceeds 20 foot in length, 3 / 4” I.D. drain line tubing should be used.
- Page 6 Metered Controls – Setting the Regeneration Schedule – When adjusting the softener settings, it is a good idea to write down the settings you used to determine the adjustment so you have that information in the future. You will need to know the size of your unit and the level of your hardness in GPG (Grains per Gallon).
