Proper Installation
This water filter system must be properly installed and located in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it is used.
 Do not install or store where it will not be
exposed to temperatures below freezing or
exposed to any type of weather. Water
freezing in the system will break it. Do not
attempt to treat water over 100°F.
 Do not install in direct sunlight. Excessive
sun or heat may cause distortion or other
damage to non-metallic parts.
 Properly ground to conform with all gov-
erning codes and ordinances.
 Use only lead-free solder and flux for all
sweat-solder connections, as required by
state and federal codes.
 Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is
125 psi. If daytime pressure is over 80
psi, night time pressure may exceed the
maximum. Use a pressure reducing valve
to reduce the flow if necessary.
 WARNING: Discard all unused parts and
packaging material after installation. Small
parts remaining after the installation could
be a choke hazard.

Taste & Odor Filter (Activated Carbon)
Unpleasant tastes and doors caused by chlo-
rine or organic substances, such as decayed
vegetation and run off, are absorbed by top
quality activated carbon. The filter will auto-
matically backwash to a predetermined
schedule. This frees the bed of accumulated
impurities and readies it for operation again.
Multi-Media Filter (Sediment)
Suspended particulate matter such as clay
and silt, which gives water a cloudy appear-
ance, is trapped in the filter bed to produce
clean, clear water. A variety of gravel and
sand facilitates more thorough backwashing
and prevents channeling. Periodic backwash-
ing cleans the bed.
Neutralizing Filter
The neutralizing filter contains blended media
which raises the pH of acidic water and neu-
tralizes its corrosive characteristics. In addi-
tion to protecting pipes, plumbing fixtures
and appliances, this filter also facilitates the
removal of iron and manganese by raising
the pH. This enables an iron filter to be used.
Periodic backwashing cleans the bed. Addi-
tional media may be required six months to
two years after installation, depending on the
water’s pH.
Before Starting Installation
Tools, Pipe, and Fittings, Other Materials
 Pliers
 Screwdriver
 Teflon tape
 Razor knife
 Two adjustable wrenches
 Additional tools may be required if modifi-
cation to home plumbing is required.
 Plastic inlet and outlet fittings are included
with the filter. To maintain full valve flow,
3/4” or 1” pipes to and from the filter fit-
tings are recommended. You should main-
tain the same, or larger, pipe size as the
water supply pipe, up to the softener inlet
and outlet.
 Use copper, brass, or PEX pipe and fittings.
 Some codes may also allow PVC plastic
pipe.
 ALWAYS install the included bypass valve,
or 3 shut-off valves. Bypass valves let you
turn off water to the filter for repairs if
needed, but still have water in the house
pipes.
 5/8” OD drain line is needed for the valve
drain. A 10’ length of hose is included.
with some models.

6
 Place the filter tank as close as possible to
the pressure tank (well system) or water
meter (city water).
 Place the filter tank as close as possible to
a floor drain, or other acceptable drain
point (laundry tub, sump, standpipe, etc.).
 Connect the filter to the main water supply
pipe BEFORE the water heater. DO NOT
RUN HOT WATER THROUGH THE FIL-
TER. Temperature of water passing
through the filter must be less than 100
deg. F.
 Do not install the filter in a place where it
could freeze. Damage caused by freez-
ing is not covered by the warranty.
 Put the filter in a place water damage is
least likely to occur if a leak develops. The
manufacturer will not repair or pay for wa-
ter damage.
 A 120 volt electric outlet, to plug the in-
cluded transformer into, is needed within 6
feet of the filter. The transformer has an
attached 6 foot power cable. Be sure the
electric outlet and transformer are in
an inside location, to protect from
wet weather.
 If installing in an outside location, you
must take the steps necessary to assure
the filter, installation plumbing, wiring,
etc., are as well protected from the ele-
ments, contamination, vandalism, etc., as
when installed indoors.
 Keep the filter out of direct sunlight.
The sun’s heat may soften and distort
plastic parts.
Where To Install The Filter

Sizing Requirements
Water Pressure
The water system must have a pump big enough to deliver the recommended backwash
rate with a minimum pressure at the inlet of the filter of 30 psi. If the existing system can-
not do this, it must be upgraded to do so. Whenever possible, the water system should be
adjusted to deliver at least 30 psi for even more satisfactory results.
Backwash Flow Rates
The most important criteria in sizing a filter is the capacity of the pump. The water must
pass through the filter media at the proper service flow rate. The filter must also be back-
washed at a flow rate sufficient to dislodge and remove the captured particles. Failure to
provide sufficient water will cause a build-up of particles in the filter media, impairing its
ability. In order for your filter to backwash and rinse properly, your pump must be capable
of providing the backwash flow rates indicated on page 4.
Check Your Pumping Rate
Two water system conditions must be checked carefully to avoid unsatisfactory operation or
equipment damage:
1. Minimum water pressure required at the filter tank inlet is 20 psi.
2. Measuring the pumping rate of your pump:
With the pressure tank full, draw water into a container of known volume, and measure the
number of gallons drawn until the pump starts again. This is draw-down. Divide this figure
by cycle time and multiply the result by 60 to arrive at the pumping rate in gallons per min-
ute (gpm). To aid in your calculation, insert the date in the following formula:
DRAW-DOWN ______ ÷ CYCLE TIME _______ x 60 = PUMPING RATE ________ (gals)
(secs.) (Gpm)
EXAMPLE: CYCLE TIME is 53 seconds. DRAW-DOWN is 6 gallons; then, PUMPING
RATE equals:
6 gallons ÷ 53 seconds x 60 = 6.8 gpm
See chart on page 4 for minimum flow rates.
NOTE: If your pumping rate is inadequate for the model, do not install your filter until
the problem has been corrected.

1. If your hot water tank is electric, turn off the power to it to avoid damage to the element
in the tank.
2. If you have a private well, turn the power off to the pump and then shut off the main wa-
ter shut off valve. If you have municipal water, simply shut off the main valve. Go to the
faucet, (preferably on the lowest floor of the house) turn on the cold water until all pres-
sure is relieved and the flow of water stops.
3. Locate the filter tank close to a drain where the system will be installed. The surface
should be clean and level.
4. Connect the inlet and outlet of the filter using appropriate fittings. Perform all plumbing
according to local plumbing codes.
 Use a ½” minimum pipe or tubing size for the drain line
 ON COPPER PLUMBING SYSTEMS BE SURE TO INSTALL A GROUNDING
WIRE BETWEEN THE INLET AND OUTLET PIPING TO MAINTAIN GROUND-
ING.
Any solder joints near the valve must be done before connecting any piping to the valve.
Always leave at least 6" (152 mm) between the valve and joints when soldering pipes that
are connected to the valve. Failure to do this could cause damage to the valve.
5. Connect the drain hose (10 ft included) to the valve and secure it with a hose clamp (also
included). Run the drain hose to the nearest laundry tub or drain pipe. This can be ran
up overhead or down along the floor. If running the drain line more than 20 ft overhead,
it is recommended to increase the hose size to 3/4”. NEVER MAKE A DIRECT CONNEC-
TION INTO A WASTE DRAIN. A PHYSICAL AIR GAP OF AT LEAST 1.5” SHOULD BE USED
TO AVOID BACTERIA AND WASTEWATER TRAVELLING BACK THROUGH THE DRAIN
LINE INTO THE FILTER.
6. Using the Allen Key (included), place the unit in the bypass position. Slowly turn on the
main water supply. At the nearest cold treated water tap nearby remove the faucet
screen, open the faucet and let water run a few minutes or until the system is free of any
air or foreign material resulting from the plumbing work.
7. Make sure there are no leaks in the plumbing system before proceeding. Close the water
tap when water runs clean.
8. Proceed to start up instructions.
Note: The unit is not ready for service until you complete the start-up instruc-
tions.

About The System
Periodically the filter will require a back wash to clean the trapped particles and unpack the
filter bed to restore the system flow rates. The table below explains the regeneration steps.
Regeneration Process
Step Name
Description
#1 Back Wash
Fresh water is introduced to the bottom of the tank flowing upwards expanding
the filter media to rinse out any dirt or small particles to the drain and to un-
compact the bed to restore full service flow rates.
#2 Rinse
Fresh water is introduced from the top of the tank flowing down through the
filter bed rinsing any unfiltered water to the drain.

Automatic Raw Water Bypass During Regeneration
The regeneration cycle can last 30 minutes after which filtered water service will be re-
stored. During regeneration, un-filtered water is automatically bypassed for use in the
household. Hot water should be used as little as possible during this time to prevent un-
filtered water from filling the water heater. This is why automatic regeneration is set for
sometime during the night and manual regenerations should be performed when little or no
water will be used in the household.
Normal regeneration time is 12:00 AM.
New Sounds
You may notice new sounds as your filter operates. The regeneration cycle lasts up to 30
minutes. During this time, you may hear water running intermittently to the drain.
Manual Bypass
In the case of emergency you can isolate your water filter from the water supply using the
bypass valve located at the back of the control. In normal operation the bypass is open with
the on/off knobs in line with the inlet and outlet pipes.
To isolate the filter, simply rotate the knobs clockwise (as indicated by the word BYPASS
and arrow) until they lock. You can use your water related fixtures and appliances as the
water supply is bypassing the filter. However, the water you use will be hard. To resume
water service, open bypass valve by rotating the knobs counterclockwise.

Maintenance
Care of Your System
To retain the attractive appearance of your new water filter, clean occasionally with mild
soap solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia or solvents. Never subject your sof-
tener to freezing or to temperatures above 100°F.
Maintenance of your new water filter requires very little time or effort but it is essential.
Regular maintenance will ensure many years of efficient and trouble-free operation.
1. Periodically make sure your pump is performing satisfactorily to ensure sufficient water is
available for backwashing the filter.
2. Periodically test your raw and filtered water to ensure conditions are still the same for
your original settings and that the unit is working they way it is intended to. Water test-
ing is often the best way to determine when the filter media will require replacement.
3. Periodically check that the drain line is clear and free from any obstructions.
NE - Neutralizing Filter - the media bed in a neutralizing filter is slowly dissolved and has
to be replaced. The frequency of replacement varies, depending on water quality - consult
your dealer to determine the expected life of your media bed.
AC - Taste and Odor Filter - under normal operating conditions the effective life of the
filter media is approximately one to three years, depending on the water quality, after
which, taste and odor problems may return. When this happens, contact your dealer for a
replacement media bed.
MM - Sediment and Turbidity Filter - under normal operating conditions, the media
should never need to be replaced. However, if you experience pressure loss and cannot cor-
rect it with a manual regeneration, your media bed may need replacing - contact your
dealer.
Replacing the Media Bed
Check to ensure all media parts are received.
The first step in replacing the media bed is to shut off the water supply to the filter. Then
place the unit into the backwash position to release any pressure in the lines. At this point,
you must disconnect the plumbing from the inlet and outlet. Then unscrew the control
valve from the fibreglass tank. Once this has been done, remove the distributor tube. Then
you can remove the filter media and two types of gravel from the tank. The quickest way to
do this is by simply tipping the tank upside down into a large drum or pail. The tank must
be rinsed out completely and have no media or gravel left in it at all.
Installation & Replacement Filter Media Pak

15
Loading the Media Pak
Place the distributor tube back down the center of the tank. NOTE: the top of this tube
should be plugged with a rag or cork to prevent media from entering. Pour the bag of
coarse gravel into the tank, and then pour the bag of fine gravel into the tank.
It is important that the distributor tube is not moved or pulled out as it is not possible to put
it down to the bottom of the tank once gravel or media are in the tank.
Finally pour the larger bag(s) of media into the tank in the following order:
Multimedia Filters
1. Coarse gravel (1/2 x 1/4) 4. Fine garnet (30 x 40)
2. Fine gravel (1/8 x 1/16) 5. Fine filter sand (.45 x .55)
3. Coarse gravel (8 x 12) 6. Anthrafilt
ACF Carbon Filters Neutralizing Filters
1. Coarse gravel 1. Coarse gravel 4. Mag Oxide
2. Fine gravel 2. Fine gravel
3. Carbon 3. Calcite
Once this is done, the rag or cork should be removed from the distributor tube. Clean off
the top of the tank. Finally place the control valve on the tank and on to the distributor
tube. Tighten the control valve on to the tank. Connect or reconnect the inlet and outlet and
drain. The control valve should be in the backwash position. Slowly open the inlet valve wa-
ter supply and slowly fill the filter tank until water appears at the open drain line. Return the
control to the service position and shut the inlet off for approximately one hour to allow the
media to soak in the water.
After one hour, turn inlet water on slowly and place the control into the backwash position
and plug the unit’s electrical cord into a constant power source. Let the unit continue
through its regeneration cycle automatically. The regeneration is necessary so all media
fines are backwashed down the drain to ensure clean filtered water.
