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 the use of a flexible drain
hose, a rigid valve drain run must be used. Purchase
a compression 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: 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 the water to the softener for
maintenance if needed, but still have water in house
pipes.
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
the single bypass valve. Soldering heat
will damage the plastic valve.
