Water conditioners do not remove nitrates or coliform bacteria, this requires specialized equipment. Your Evolve Series water filters are precision built, high quality products. These units will deliver filtered water for many years to come, when installed and operated properly. Please study this manual carefully and understand the cautions and notes before installing.
PREINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DEALERS: The manufacturer has preset the water treatment unit’s sequence of cycles and cycle times. The dealer should read this page and guide the installer regarding day override, time of regeneration, service alarm and buzzer alarm settings before installation. For the installer, the following must be used: •...
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.
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 softener is not designed to support the weight of the plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere.

Remember to follow all local codes. When installing the drain line on any backwashing filter, especially Evolve filters that utilize air as the regenerant, hard piping such as PVC, Schedule 80 Plastic or copper is recommended. Remove the drain line nut (if included) and discard.

8. CHECK VALVE: On Evolve air filters, a 3/8” check valve is part of the air draw assembly which includes tubing and a screen. Insert the tubing into the elbow on the control valve (see diagram at right). As the...
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES: 1. Set time of day: Time of day should only need to be set after extended power outages or when daylight saving time begins or ends. If an extended power outage occurs, the time of day will flash on and off indicating that the time should be reset. STEP 1 –...

NOTE: This valve has the capability of regenerating up to six times in one day. REGENS PER DAY 4 PER This can be observed by pressing the and + buttons simultaneously, then CLOCK using + or — buttons to toggle the correct number of regenerations per day as desired (see example to right).
4. Return to service 4. Backwash Inch Worm Feature: Evolve air units are programmed with the backwash air cycle feature (nicknamed “inch worm”). This unique feature allows for small movements or “inching” of the piston towards the backwash cycle. As the piston approaches this cycle, the backwash port opens slightly with each advancement, allowing air to escape to drain.
OPERATING DISPLAYS AND INSTRUCTIONS: 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.
4. MANUAL REGENERATION: Sometimes there is a need to regenerate before the control valve calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated. • To initiate a manual regeneration at the next preset regeneration time, MANUAL REGENERATION press and release .
REPLACEMENT MINERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACID NEUTRALIZERS: The EACG Iron Filter/Acid Neutralizer will remove iron and also raise the pH of mildly acidic water. The EVAN Upflow Acid Neutralizer will raise the pH of acidic water. The raising of pH utilizes a sacrificial mineral that will need replenishment every 6 to 12 months.
