Installation Requirements
INLET/OUTLET PLUMBING
REQUIREMENTS
Always install either a single bypass valve
(provided),as shown in Figure 4, or, if desired,
parts for a 3 valve bypass system (not
included) can be purchased and assembled, as
shown in Figure 5. Bypass valves allow you to
turn off water to the softener for maintenance if
needed, but still have water in house pipes.
Pipe fittings must be 1/2" 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.
SINGLE BYPASS VALVE

ground electrical outlets in the home. Failure to
maintain this ground path may result in an
electric shock hazard. If the cold water pipe is
used to ground electric outlets, please refer to
