QUANTUM INSTALLATION GUIDE
READ THIS GUIDE FIRST
Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with the device and its capabilities before installing or operating your
Water Softener. Failure to follow instructions in this manual could result in personal injury or property damage. This
manual will also help you to get the most out of your Softener.
This system and its installation must comply with state and local regulations. Check with your local public works
department for plumbing and sanitation codes. In the event the codes conflict with any content in this manual the
local codes should be followed. For installations in Massachusetts, Massachusetts Plumbing Code 248 CMR shall be
adhered to. Consult your licensed plumber for installation of this system.
This water Softener is designed to operate on pressures of 30 psi to 125 psi. If the water pressure is higher than the
maximum, use a pressure reducing valve in the water supply line to the Softener. However, we do not recommend
pressure above 70 psi for the softener or residential plumbing, anything over 70 psi can cause damage to the seals
on the softener valve and your plumbing and fixtures.
This unit can operate at temperatures between 40°F and 110°F (4°C - 43°C). Do not use this water Softener on hot
water supplies.
Do not install this unit where it may be exposed to wet weather, direct sunlight, or temperatures outside of the
range specified above unless you take precautions to protect it.
Avoid pinched O-rings during installation by applying (provided with install kit) NSF certified lubricant to all seals.
Softeners are commonly exposed to high levels of iron, manganese, sulfur, and sediments. Damage to pistons,
seals, and or spacers within the control valve are not covered in this warranty due to the harsh environment.
It is recommended to regularly inspect and service the control valve on an annual basis. Cleaning and or
replacement of piston, seals, and or spacers may be necessary depending on how harsh the conditions are. An
Annual Maintenance kit (Part # 60010307) is available for this purpose.
Do not use water that is microbiologically unsafe without adequate disinfection before or after this system.
