Installation Requirements

VALVE DRAIN REQUIREMENTS

Using the flexible drain hose (included), measure and

cut to the length needed. Flexible drain hose is not

allowed in all localities (check your plumbing codes). If

local codes do not allow use of a flexible drain hose, a

rigid valve drain run must be used. Purchase a com-

pression fitting (1/4 NPT x 1/2 in. minimum tube) and

1/2" tubing from your local hardware store. Plumb a

rigid drain as needed (See Figure 5).

NOTE: Avoid drain hose runs longer than 30 feet.

Avoid elevating the hose more than 8 feet

above the floor. Make the valve drain line as

short and direct as possible.

INLET / OUTLET PLUMBING OPTIONS

Always install either a single bypass valve (provided),

as shown in Figure 6, or, if desired, parts for a 3 valve

bypass system (not included) can be purchased and

assembled, as shown in Figure 7. Bypass valves

allow you to turn off water to the softener for mainte-

nance if needed, but still have water in house pipes.

Pipe fittings must be 3/4” minimum.

Use:

Copper pipe

Threaded pipe

PEX (Crosslinked Polyethylene) pipe

CPVC plastic pipe

Other pipe approved for use with potable water

IMPORTANT: Do not solder with plumbing attached to

installation adaptors and single bypass

valve. Soldering heat will damage the

adaptors and valve.
