Location Selection
Location of a water treatment system is important . The
following conditions are required:
• Level platform or floor.
• Room to access equipment for maintenance and adding
salt to tank .
• Ambient temperatures over 34°F (1°C) and below 120°F
(49°C) .
• Water pressure below 125 psi (8 .6 bar) and above
20 psi (1 .4 bar) .
• In Canada the water pressure must be below 100 psi
(6 .89 bar) .
• Constant electrical supply to operate the controller .
• Total minimum pipe run to water heater of ten feet (three
meters) to prevent backup of hot water into system .
• Local drain for discharge as close as possible .
• Water line connections with shutoff or bypass valves .
• Must meet any local, state and international codes for the
installation site .
• Valve is designed for minor plumbing misalignments . Do
not support weight of system on the plumbing .
• Be sure all soldered pipes are fully cooled before
attaching plastic valve to the plumbing .
Outdoor Locations
It is recommended that the OMNI system be installed indoors .
When the water conditioning system must be installed
outdoors, several items must be considered .
• Moisture — The valve and 706 controller are rated
for NEMA 3 locations . Falling water should not affect
performance .
The system is not designed to withstand extreme humidity
or water spray from below . Examples are: constant heavy
mist, near corrosive environment, upwards spray from
sprinkler .
• Direct Sunlight — The materials used will fade or discolor
over time in direct sunlight . The integrity of the materials
will not degrade to cause system failures .

• Temperature — Extreme hot or cold temperatures may
cause damage to the valve or controller .
Freezing temperatures will freeze the water in the valve .
This will cause physical damage to the internal parts as
well as the plumbing .
High temperatures will affect the controller . The display
may become unreadable but the controller should
continue to function . When the temperature drops down
into normal operating limits the display will return to
normal .
• Insects — The controller and valve have been designed
to keep all but the smallest insects out of the critical
areas . The top cover should be installed securely in
place .
Things You Need to Know
• When the controller is first plugged in, it may display
an Err 3, this means that the controller is rotating the
camshaft to the home position .
• The preset default time of recharge is 2:00 AM .
• The controller is programmed to recharge if a recharge
has not taken place in the last 15 days . This setting
cannot be changed .
• Make sure control power source is plugged in . The
transformer should be connected to a non-switched
power source .
• Unless changed, the settings for a newly installed system
are:
Hardness - 25 grains per gallon
Salt Setting - HE (High Efficiency)
Internal System clock starts at 0 hours (midnight)
The first recharge will occur when the system clock
reaches 2:00 AM
• Test your water . Take a 4-5 oz sample of your water to
someone who can test for hardness . This information will
be used to set up the control .
