Safety Guide

 Check and comply with your provincial /

state and local codes. You must follow

these guidelines.

 Use care when handling the water soften-

ing system. Do not turn upside down,

drop, drag or set on sharp protrusions.

 The water softening system works on 12

volt-60 Hz electrical power only. Be sure to

use only the included transformer.

 Transformer must be plugged into an in-

door 120 volt, grounded outlet only.

 Use clean water softening salts only, at

least 99.5% pure. NUGGET, PELLET or

coarse SOLAR salts are recommended. Do

not use rock, block, granulated or ice

cream making salts. They contain dirt and

sediments, or mush and cake, and will cre-

ate maintenance problems.

 Keep the salt lid in place on the softener

unless servicing the unit or refilling with

salt.

 WARNING: This system is not intend-

ed for treating water that is microbiologi-

cally unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the

system.

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of

electric shock, property damage or personal injury.

Be sure to check the entire softener for any shipping damage or parts loss. Also note dam-

age to the shipping cartons. Contact the transportation company for all damage and loss

claims. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages in transit.

Small parts, needed to install the softener, are in a parts bag. To avoid loss of the small

parts, keep them in the parts bag until you are ready to use them.

Proper Installation

This water softening system must be properly installed and located in accordance with the

Installation Instructions before it is used.



Do not

install or store where it will not be

exposed to temperatures below freezing or

exposed to any type of weather. Water

freezing in the system will break it. Do not

attempt to treat water over 100°F.



Do not

install in direct sunlight. Excessive

sun or heat may cause distortion or other

damage to non-metallic parts.

 Properly ground to conform with all gov-

erning codes and ordinances.

 Use only

lead-free solder and flux

for all

sweat-solder connections, as required by

state and federal codes.

 Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is

125 psi. If daytime pressure is over 80

psi, night time pressure may exceed the

maximum. Use a pressure reducing valve

to reduce the flow if necessary.

 Softener resins may degrade in the pres-

ence of chlorine above 2 ppm. If you

have chlorine in excess of this amount,

you may experience reduced life of the

resin. In these conditions, you may wish

to consider purchasing a whole house car-

bon filter softener system with a chlorine

reducing media.



WARNING:

Discard all unused parts and

packaging material after installation. Small

parts remaining after the installation could

be a choke hazard.

Specifications

Before Starting Installation

Tools, Pipe, and Fittings, Other Materials

 Pliers

 Screwdriver

 Teflon tape

 Razor knife

 Two adjustable wrenches

 Additional tools may be required if modifi-

cation to home plumbing is required.

 Plastic inlet and outlet fittings are included

with the softener. To maintain full valve

flow, 3/4” or 1” pipes to and from the sof-

tener fittings are recommended. You

should maintain the same, or larger, pipe

size as the water supply pipe, up to the

softener inlet and outlet.

 Use copper, brass, or PEX pipe and fittings.

 Some codes may also allow PVC plastic

pipe.

 ALWAYS install the included bypass valve,

or 3 shut-off valves. Bypass valves let you

turn off water to the softener for repairs if

needed, but still have water in the house

pipes.

 5/8” OD drain line is needed for the valve

drain. A 10’ length of hose is included.

with some models.

 A length of 5/8” OD drain line tubing is

needed for the brine tank over flow fitting

(optional).

 Nugget or pellet water softener salt is

needed to fill the cabinet or brine tank.

 Continuous operation at flow rates greater than the service flow rate may affect capacity and efficiency performance.

 The manufacturer reserves the right to make product improvements which may deviate from the specifications and

descriptions stated herein, without obligation to change previously manufactured products or to note the change.

 Place the softener as close as possible to

the pressure tank (well system) or water

meter (city water).

 Place the softener as close as possible to a

floor drain, or other acceptable drain point

(laundry tub, sump, standpipe, etc.).

 Connect the softener to the main water

supply pipe BEFORE the water heater. DO

NOT RUN HOT WATER THROUGH THE

SOFTENER. Temperature of water pass-

ing through the softener must be less than

100 deg. F.

 Keep outside faucets on hard water to

save soft water and salt.

 Do not install the softener in a place where

it could freeze. Damage caused by

freezing is not covered by the war-

ranty.

 Put the softener in a place water damage

is least likely to occur if a leak develops.

The manufacturer will not repair or pay for

water damage.

 A 120 volt electric outlet, to plug the in-

cluded transformer into, is needed within 6

feet of the softener. The transformer has

an attached 6 foot power cable. Be sure

the electric outlet and transformer

are in an inside location, to protect

from wet weather.

 If installing in an outside location, you

must take the steps necessary to assure

the softener, installation plumbing, wiring,

etc., are as well protected from the ele-

ments, contamination, vandalism, etc., as

when installed indoors.

 Keep the softener out of direct sun-

light. The sun’s heat may soften and dis-

tort plastic parts.

Where To Install The Softener

The design of the parallel tank adaptor used in our dual-tank products (i.e. BIF/BAF,

HTO, HEDP etc.) has been redeveloped. This new shorter version will also change the

New flow directions.

Regeneration Process Explained

Backwash: Backwash: During the backwash cycle, water enters tank #2 through the center of the distribution

tube and flows up- wards in the tank#2 expanding the media bed and carrying any precipitated contaminants

trapped within the bed. It then travels to tank #1 through the center of the distribution tube and flow upwards in

tank #1 and then out to the drain.

Brine Draw: During the brine draw cycle, brine water enters tank #2 through the center of the distribution tube

and flows upwards in the tank #2 regenerating the media bed. It then travels to tank #1 through the center of

the distribution tube and flows upwards in tank #1 and then out to the drain.

Settle Rinse : During the settle rinse cycle, water enters tank #1 down through the bed and up the through the

center of the distribution tube. It then travels to tank #2 down through the bed and up the through the center of

the distribution tube and out to the drain.

Refill : During refill the control valve will put water into the brine tank for the next regeneration cycle.

1. If your hot water tank is electric, turn off the power to it to avoid damage to the element

in the tank.

2. If you have a private well, turn the power off to the pump and then shut off the main wa-

ter shut off valve. If you have municipal water, simply shut off the main valve. Go to the

faucet, (preferably on the lowest floor of the house) turn on the cold water until all pres-

sure is relieved and the flow of water stops.

3. Locate the softener tank and brine tank close to a drain where the system will be in-

stalled. The surface should be clean and level.

4. Connect the inlet and outlet of the softener using appropriate fittings. Perform all plumb-

ing according to local plumbing codes.

 Use a ½” minimum pipe or tubing size for the drain line

 ON COPPER PLUMBING SYSTEMS BE SURE TO INSTALL A GROUNDING

WIRE BETWEEN THE INLET AND OUTLET PIPING TO MAINTAIN GROUND-

ING.

Any solder joints near the valve must be done before connecting any piping to the valve.

Always leave at least 6" (152 mm) between the valve and joints when soldering pipes that

are connected to the valve. Failure to do this could cause damage to the valve.

5. Connect the drain hose (10 ft included) to the valve and secure it with a hose clamp (also

included). Run the drain hose to the nearest laundry tub or drain pipe. This can be ran

up overhead or down along the floor. If running the drain line more than 20 ft overhead,

it is recommended to increase the hose size to 3/4”. NEVER MAKE A DIRECT CONNEC-

TION INTO A WASTE DRAIN. A PHYSICAL AIR GAP OF AT LEAST 1.5” SHOULD BE USED

TO AVOID BACTERIA AND WASTEWATER TRAVELLING BACK THROUGH THE DRAIN

LINE INTO THE SOFTENER.

6. Using the Allen Key (included), place the unit in the bypass position. Slowly turn on the

main water supply. At the nearest cold treated water tap nearby remove the faucet

screen, open the faucet and let water run a few minutes or until the system is free of any

air or foreign material resulting from the plumbing work.

7. Make sure there are no leaks in the plumbing system before proceeding. Close the water

tap when water runs clean.

8. Open the brine tank / cabinet salt lid and add water until there is approximately 3" (75

mm) of water in the tank. Do not add salt to the brine tank at this time.

9. Proceed to start up instructions.

Note: The unit is not ready for service until you complete the start-up instruc-

tions.

Installation Instructions

Installation

Note: As the picture shows, connect the inlet and outlet according to the arrow direcƟon

which seeing from the top view, where you can see the mark of “Up ﬂow” or “Down

ﬂow” on the standard inlet and outlet connector assembly.

The installaon of 1“ integrated bypass valve：

If you use the 1” integrated bypass instead of the three manual valve, the installaon

method is showed as the picture below.

1 Use the clips to install the 1” bypass valve between the standard inlet and outlet con-

nector assembly and the inlet and outlet connector, make sure the O-ring is coated

with grease.

2. Connecon method of inlet and outlet connector：same as the above, make sure to

connect according to the direcon of arrow seeing from the top view；

3. It is also recommended to install the inlet and outlet pressure gauge and the inlet Y-type

ﬁlter；

4. When the two knobs on the bypass valve is parallel, the inlet and outlet are open, this

state of operaon is “Service”；

5. Rotate each of the two knobs in clockwise and anclockwise respecvely, when the

knobs on the bypass is in one line, the inlet and outlet are both closed, this state of op-

eraon is “By-pass”.

6. The two small quick connector at the two sides are the sample connecon for inlet and

outlet, choose the right elbow connector for taking water samples.
