E. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS -
HORIzONTAL
All sales, commissioning and maintenance personnel are
required to participate in a Homespring Certified Technician
training program to ensure that they have been trained to
maintain and diagnose the system. Since the primary usage
of the system is to remove bacteria, certain parasites, and
certain viruses from drinking water sources, this certification
program is important and mandatory for both safety and
liability reasons.
All efforts must be made to ensure that installations are
performed in a careful, sanitary manner for the safety of the
homeowner, home occupants, and technicians.
The following section outlines the installation procedures,
the tools required in the installation, and the commissioning
procedures.
NOTE: The images in this manual may appear slightly different
than the actual system or parts.
WARNING:
severe injury, illness, death and/or property damage,
read and follow all instructions. Use only factory
supplied parts, where required.
System Installation Location with other Water
Treatment Devices
If other water processing devices are currently installed in the
home, the system should be located as shown in the diagram.

figure 31
A water softener can be placed either before (upstream) or
after (downstream) the system. If the softener is downstream
of the system, it is recommended that a supply line of hard
water be plumbed to the kitchen so that filtered, mineralized
water can be utilized in food preparation and for human
consumption.
If a chlorinator is used to control bacterial and virus growth in
pipes, a stainless steel prefilter may be installed in the system
instead of a carbon prefilter.
