INLET - OUTLET PLUMBING OPTIONS
Always install either a single bypass valve (provided)
to the contractor/plumber-supplied plumbing, as shown
in Figure 2 OR if desired, a 3 valve bypass system
(parts not included) can be installed, as shown in
Figure 3. Bypass valves allow you to turn off water to
the Central Water Filtration System for maintenance if
needed, but still have water in house pipes.
Use either:
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 adapters and single valve
bypass. Soldering heat will damage the
adapters and valve.
