install the EcoWater Systems conditioner/refiner proper-
ly voids the warranty.
Before you begin installation, read this entire manual.
Then, obtain all the materials and tools you will need to
make the installation.
Check local plumbing and electrical codes.
installation must conform to them.
Use only lead-free solder and flux for all sweat-solder
connections, as required by state and federal codes.
Use care when handling the EcoWater Systems condi-
tioner/refiner. Do not turn upside down, drop, or set on
sharp protrusions.
Do not locate the EcoWater Systems conditioner/refiner
where freezing temperatures occur. Do not attempt to
treat water over 120°F. Freezing, or hot water damage
voids the warranty.
Avoid installing in direct sunlight. Excessive sun heat
may cause distortion or other damage to non-metallic
parts.
The EcoWater Systems conditioner/refiner requires a
minimum water flow of 3 gallons per minute at the inlet.
Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 125 psi. If
daytime pressure is over 80 psi, nighttime pressure may
exceed the maximum. Use a pressure reducing valve if
necessary (Adding a pressure reducing valve may
reduce the flow).
The EcoWater Systems conditioner/refiner works on 24
volt, 60 Hz electrical power only. Be sure to use the
included transformer and plug it into a nominal 120V, 60
Hz household outlet that is in a dry location only,
grounded and properly protected by an over current
device such as a circuit breaker or fuse. If transformer is
replaced, use only the authorized service, Class II, 24V,
10 VA transformer.
