4. PREPARATION OF THE INSTALLATION SITE
•Installation area must meet all relevant building code. Water and power supply, and
ambient conditions must meet Specification requirements of this manual.
•Observe all local plumbing and electrical code when connecting system to utilities.
•Install check valve when connecting the filter to water mains. Install second check valve after the
system to prevent back flow.
•Particles such as sand, scale or rust can damage the control valve. Install a point-of-entry
sediment filter.
•Equip the system with sampling taps and pressure gauges as shown on drawings. It will help in
case any maintenance or troubleshooting is necessary.
•Install a vacuum relief valve as shown if there is a booster pump downstream of Ecosoft filter.
The FRP tanks may implode if subjected to negative pressure.
•If your system does not include bypass valve assembly, run a bypass pipeline along the entire
system. This may be necessary for diagnostics and maintenance.
5. PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLING AN FU CABINET SYSTEM
If your cabinet was delivered pre-loaded with media, place the cabinet in the installaon spot, ll
salt compartment with salt pellets, and then only carry out steps 5 – 8 of the procedure, skipping
steps 1 – 4. If the resin was shipped in bag, then carry out all of the following steps.
1. Disconnect the exible tube from brine inlet of the control valve. Unmount the valve by screwing
it counterclockwise.
2. Put a plug or cap on the top end of the riser pipe to prevent geng any media inside the pipe.
Pour the media in the tank using the funnel. When loading the tank, keep riser pipe vercal. If the
pipe lts, restore it to straight vercal direcon. When nished, rinse the thread of tank opening
with water to remove any beads of media stuck in the groove.
3. Mate the top distributor with the top end of riser pipe, then screw control valve in the tank
opening. Connect the free end of brine tube back to the brine inlet of the control valve.
4. Place the cabinet in the installaon spot. Open top lid and ll the salt compartment with soener
salt pellets at least half full.
5. Connect drain pipe to the male threaded drain outlet of the control valve. Run the drain pipe to
oor drain or gravity drain pipe socket. Secure the drain pipe end above the receiving xture with
at least 1″ air gap.

5. PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLING AN FU CABINET SYSTEM
5.1 Oponal equipment
6. Mount the pipe thread elbow adapters to the control valve’s In and Out ports and ghten the
coupling nuts. Do not put any mechanical load on ngs or use them to support pipes.
Connect the system to water supply and downstream pipework without turning on the water
supply. Do not confuse In and Out ports. They are embossed with direcon arrows.
7. Remove the front panel by pulling the locking tabs on the le and right side. Run the power cord
through the cord guide in the control valve’s backplate and connect it to 12 VAC socket on the circuit
board. Plug the power supply in the mains to power up the system.
8. Start manual regeneraon of the system. Scroll regeneraon to backwash if it isn’t the 1st step of
the sequence. When the control valve starts the backwash, turn on mains water supply slightly at
rst. Air will be displaced from the system via drain line while the pressure tank is being lled with
water. When the tank is full, water will start owing down the drain line. At this point, fully open
mains water supply.
Let the system complete regeneraon, then perform one more manual regeneraon.
Soening systems can be
addionally equipped with a Clack
or Mulblock bypass valve.
The Clack bypass valve is aached
directly to the inlet and puried
water pipes and has 4 operang
