  • Page 4 Pre-installation Instructions (cont.) Water Supply This filter will function properly when the water supply is furnished by a jet pump, submersible pump, variable speed (constant pressure) pump or community water supply. As with all other filter systems, however, it is imperative that the well pump provides enough flow rate for the filter to adequately backwash.
  • Page 5: General Installation

    General Installation GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The water conditioner is not designed to support the weight of plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black “O” Rings. This will allow ease of installation and decrease chance of rolling from the bypass and tank connections.
  • Page 6: Bypass Valve

    Bypass Valve The bypass valve is used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system's water pressure in order to perform control valve repairs or maintenance. The 1" full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions including a diagnostic position that allows a service technician to have pressure to test a system while providing untreated bypass water to the building.
