  • Page 3 CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW WATERBOY! 1. After the WATERBOY system is installed, the water will taste and smell fresh and clean throughout all the taps in your home. Since the WATERBOY conditions the water without salt or potassium, you will notice a squeaky clean rinse after a shower as opposed to a slimy, slippery, salt based feel.
  • Page 4: How It Works

    WORKS The WATERBOY™ When your household water is treated with the WATERBOY™ Whole House System, it goes through: 3 stages of filtration & 1 stage of conditioning.

  • Page 5 General Residential Customer Information LOCATION: The WATERBOY™ usually gets installed at the main line after the pressure regulator. Sometimes there is an existing loop in the garage where a Water Softener has been, that is also where we would install the system.

    GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignment but are not designed to support the weight of a system or the plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere.
  • Page 11 When assembling the installation fitting package (inlet and outlet), connect the fitting to the plumbing system first and then attach the nut, split ring and o-ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements may dam- age the nut, split ring or o-ring. Solder joints should be cool and solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split ring and o-ring.
  • Page 12 prevent valve seizing after long periods of non-use. Internal o-rings can easily be replaced if service is required. The bypass consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are operated independently by red arrow shaped handles. The handles identify the flow direction of the water. The plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four positions.
  • Page 13 VACATION SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS CLACK WS1 Before you leave: Put Waterboy system in bypass by turning both red bypass handles 90 degrees so they are perpendicular to the plumbing. When you return: • Turn both red bypass knobs a 1/4 turn so that knobs are in-line with plumbing and the system is back in service.
  • Page 14 5. We recommend bubble pack detergent with Shine Shield for spotless dishes. The above guidelines are based upon years of experience. Superior water has less surface tension, so less of anything is needed when added to the water. Water varies from area to area – so work with your water.
  • Page 15 TIPS on Soap, Cleaning Materials, etc. 1. LIQUID OR BAR SOAPS work well in the shower, but any is best. Our water doesn’t require detergent conditioning agents. A more natural soap works well! 2. Chlorine Disc in Toilet BOWL: We recommend chlorine tablets (that fasten underneath bowl rather than inside the tank) in the toilets to keep the bowl fresh smelling and clean.
