Electrical Shock Hazard
Prior to installation on metallic plumbing,
securely install two grounding clamps and a
#4 copper wire per installation instructions.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death or electrical shock.
GROUNDING INFORMATION
(for Installations on Metal Pipe)
The house main incoming water pipe is often used to
ground electrical outlets in the home. Grounding
protects you from electrical shock. Installing the water
softener with a plastic bypass valve will break this
ground. Before beginning installation, purchase and
securely install two grounding clamps and a #4 copper
wire across the location where the softener will be,
tightly clamping it at both ends, as shown in Figure 13.
NOTE: Check local plumbing and electrical codes for
proper installation of the ground wire. The
installation must conform to them. In
Massachusetts, plumbing codes of
Massachusetts shall be conformed to. Consult
with your licensed plumber.

COMPLETE INLET AND OUTLET PLUMBING
Measure, cut, and loosely assemble pipe and fittings
from the main water pipe to the inlet and outlet ports of
the water softener valve. Be sure to keep fittings fully
together, and pipes squared and straight.
Be sure hard water supply pipe goes to the water
softener valve inlet side.
NOTE: Inlet and outlet are marked on the water softener
valve. Trace the water flow direction to be sure
hard water is to inlet.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to fit, align and support all plumbing
to prevent putting stress on the water
softener valve inlet and outlet. Stress from
misaligned or unsupported plumbing may
cause damage to the system.
Complete the inlet and outlet plumbing for the type of
pipe you will be using.
INSTALL VALVE DRAIN HOSE
1. Measure, cut to needed length and connect the 3/8"
drain line (provided) to the water softener valve drain
fitting. Use a hose clamp to hold the hose in place.
NOTE: Make the valve drain line as short and direct as
possible.
IMPORTANT: If codes require a rigid drain line see
"Valve Drain requirements" section.
2. Route the drain hose or copper tubing to the floor
drain. Secure drain hose. This will prevent "whipping"
during regenerations. See "Air Gap Requirements"
section.
INSTALL SALT STORAGE TANK OVERFLOW
HOSE
1. Measure, cut to needed length and connect the 3/8"
drain line (provided) to the salt storage tank overflow
elbow and secure in place with a hose clamp.
2. Route the hose to the floor drain, or other suitable
drain point no higher than the drain fitting on the salt
storage tank (This is a gravity drain). If the tank
overfills with water, the excess water flows to the
drain point. Cut the drain line to the desired length
and route it neatly out of the way.
IMPORTANT: For proper operation of the water
softener, do not connect the water sof-
tener valve drain tubing to the salt stor-
age tank overflow hose.
