“jumper wire” to bridge the equipment and re-establish the contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing before using this Pentair system. Failure to do so can result in errant electricity from improperly grounded appliances or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system, which could increase the risk of fire or injury... -
Page 3: Application Limitations
APPLICATION LIMITATIONS • This system may be applied on municipality or well water systems. On hardness levels of 60 grains and higher, the system may not achieve a hardness of less than 1 grain, due to high Total Dissolved Solids (some bleed through is possible). Bleed through can also be caused by sodium levels higher than 1000 ppm. -

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • To prevent accident or injury, do not hoist the unit over your shoulder. Use a hand truck to transport the unit. Notice Do not lay the unit on its side during transportation and/or installation. •... - Page 7 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED 5. TURN OFF THE WATER AND DRAIN THE PLUMBING • Turn off the water at the meter or the pressure tank. • Drain all the pipes. Do not sweat the pipes with water in them; steam will damage plastic parts in the valve.
- Page 8 • In some homes, metal piping may serve as a ground connection for the home electrical system. Installing a Pentair Softener with its nonmetallic valve body will interrupt the ground connection. Whenever a system is installed on metallic plumbing, we recommend you use grounding pipe clamps and a ground cable to maintain continuity of the ground connection from the inlet to the outlet pipe.
- Page 9 Special Attention for situations where a Filter and a Softener are installed together: When a whole house filter and a softener are installed side by side, the preferred approach is to run a sepa- rate drain line from each unit all the way to the point of termination. If this is not done, there is the potential for drain water from the filter to back feed through the softener and overfill the brine tank, especially when drain lines are run overhead.
