    BYPASS VALVE The bypass valve is typically 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.
  • Page 5: Installation

    INSTALLATION GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments. There is a small amount of “give” to properly connect the piping, but the water treatment unit is not designed to support the weight of the plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants, or spray silicone anywhere.
  • Page 6 INSTALLATION Provisions should be made to bypass outside hydrants that are not to have filtered water. It is also advisable to install hose bibs on the inlet and outside of the filter for future testing and service of the equipment. Where heavy sediment from the well is observed, it is advisable to install a cartridge or bag-style filter immediately upstream from the filter.

    OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE The air sulfur and air iron filter systems look and function much like any backwashing whole house filter; however, unlike these conventional filters, they use air as a regenerant. This atmospheric air (containing oxygen) helps convert iron or hydrogen sulfide into particles. These filters capture the particles of iron or hydrogen sulfide gas within the filter media.
  • Page 12 OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE 4 . MANUAL REGENERATION: Sometimes there may be a need to regenerate a unit before the control valve REGEN TODAY and TIME OF DAY will flash alternately if a regeneration calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated. is expected tonight.
  • Page 13: Replacement Mineral Instructions For Ccp Acid Neutralizers

    REPLACEMENT MINERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACID NEUTRALIZERS Acid Neutralizers raise the pH of mildly acidic water. The raising of pH utilizes a sacrificial mineral that will need replenishment every 6 to 12 months. Typically the media should not be below the halfway point in the tank. In order to check the mineral height and before adding mineral to the system, please follow these instructions.

Check the media height by shining a flashlight through the tank to see the height of the mineral. To more clearly check the level of mineral and to fill the tank, the 100245769 (CD1400) In/Out head will need to be removed.
