    Before Starting Installation Proper Installation This water treatment system must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used or the warranty will be void. • Do not Install or store where it will be •...
  • Page 5: Liquid Chlorination Equipment Introduction

    Liquid Chlorination Equipment Introduction • Proportional Injection System - This component mounts on the wall and therefore takes up no floor space. It is fully assembled and ready for installation. The inlet is on the left and the outlet is on the right. There is a meter installed where the flow rate is determined and a signal is sent to the pump injection control.
  • Page 6: How The Water Treatment System Works

    How the Water Treatment System Works The water treatment system injects chlorine into the water stream to remove iron, sulfur, manganese and bacteria from the water source. Chlorine is injected into the water stream proportionally. The chemical injection control panel will engage the pump based on the flow rate of the feed source water and the settings on the pump control.
  • Page 7: Injection Panel Installation

    Injection Panel Installation Select a dry location to mount the panel to avoid water intrusion. When selecting the location, note the water flow direction as indicated on the flow meter. The location should allow mounting hardware to be anchored into studs or concrete to support the weight of the panel.
  • Page 8 Prime the pump, per the instruction manual, and observe the liquid being drawn from the solution tank. When it reaches the injection point, discontinue priming. Pressurize the system slowly, check for leaks, and verify pump operation. When pressurizing the system, feed the water slowly by opening the inlet water valve in small intervals.
  • Page 9: Retention Tank Installation

    Retention Tank Installation Connect the outlet plumbing from the chlorine injection panel to the inlet on the bottom of the retention tank. Connect the outlet pipe on the retention tank to the inlet of the carbon filter (or to the next retention tank in line).

  • Page 12 Backwash Flow Rates The water must pass through the filter media at the proper service flow rate but it also must be backwashed at the proper flow rate as well. Some of the media will actually require a higher backwash rate than the specified service flow rate. The filter must be backwashed at a flow rate sufficient to dislodge and remove the captured particles.

  • Page 15: Preparation

    Preparation Tank Preparation Water Pressure: A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure is required for the regenera- tion valve to operate effectively. Electrical Facilities: An uninterrupted alternating current (AC) supply is required. Note: Other voltages are available. Please make sure your voltage supply is compatible with your unit before installation.
  • Page 16 Use the funnel provided to pour the media into the tank. The order the media is poured in is important. Begin by pouring the Quartz Gravel into the bottom of the tank. Pour it evenly around the hole to ensure it is well distributed in the tank and pour slow enough to keep from plugging the hole.
  • Page 17 Install the upper basket on the bottom of the valve by lining up the tabs then turning the basket clockwise to lock it in place. Place the upper basket over the distributor tube and push the valve onto the tank. Thread the valve on the tank by turning it clockwise.
  • Page 18: Installation Instructions

    Installation Instructions If your hot water tank is electric, turn off the power to it to avoid damage to the element in the tank. If you have a private well, turn the power off to the pump and then shut off the main water shut off valve.
  • Page 19 Insert the provided plumbing fittings into the bypass. 3/4" and 1" male pipe thread fittings are supplied so ensure you pick the correct one for your plumbing. Tighten the retaining nuts hand tight, ensuring that the fittings are not cross threaded. Be sure to use Teflon tape or other pipe sealant on the plumbing fitting threads and install them on the bypass accordingly.
  • Page 20 Connect the drain hose to the valve and secure it with a hose clamp. Run the drain hose to the nearest laundry tub, floor drain or approved air gap fitting. The drain can be ran overhead or down along the floor. Drain tubing should be a minimum of 1/2" ID.
  • Page 21: Automatic Bypass During Regeneration

    Automatic Bypass During Regeneration The regeneration cycle can last 25 to 30 minutes, after which treated water service will be restored. During regeneration, untreated water is automatically bypassed for use in the household. This is why automatic regeneration is set for sometime during the night and manual regenerations should be performed when little or no water will be used in the household.

Total Regenerations: This parameter shows how many times the system has regen- erated since it was put in service or since the last time the value was reset.
  • Page 28: Chlorine Injection Setting

    Chlorine Injection Setting To set the chlorine injection rate, you will use the previously installed sample port (sample port should be installed in the outlet piping after the retention tank). Plug the chemical pump power cord into a continuously energized 110v outlet. The chemical pump should be set when the unit is shipped.

    "grow" backwards toward the treatment system and the sulfur smell will not go away. If this does occur, it is easily eradicated with a chlorination well "shock" procedure. Ask a US Water Systems representative about our well sanitizing kits.
  • Page 30: Routine Maintenance

    Routine Maintenance • Pressure Tank - If the plumbing system uses a bladder pressure tank, it will be in the system prior to the Liquid Chlorination system. This tank should be drained periodically to remove any build up of contaminants. Typically once a quarter is sufficient but that frequency may need to be increased on systems with high contaminant levels.
