Softener Specifications PLEASE NOTE THESE SPECIFICATIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING OPERATING PRESSURE RANGE : 20 - 125 PSI OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE : 33º F - 120º F INLET / OUTLET PIPE SIZE : 3/4: FNPT PLEASE COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE PLUMBING CODES PROTECT THE SOFTENER AND PIPING FROM FREEZING TEMPERATURES Please read the entire Owner’s Manual and Instruction before installation.
Installation -Pre-Installation Check List- A water test should always be performed in order to determine total water hardness (in gpg) and total dissolved iron (in parts per million - ppm). This is critical for proper equipment selection, sizing and for determining the program for regeneration frequency.
