Product Operation and Specifications
**Minimum Rated Service Flow must be at least 5 GPM.
Important Information
Read these instructions carefully and determine the location of all system components before
beginning installation.
Check all applicable plumbing, building, and electrical codes for installation compliance.
Install the system on the main water supply.
Systems that contain electronic components cannot be installed outside in uncovered areas.
WARNING:
If this or any other system is installed in a metal (conductive) plumbing system, i.e. copper or
galvanized metal, the plastic components of the system will interrupt the continuity of the
plumbing system. As a result any errant electricity from improperly grounded appliances
downstream or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground
through contiguous metal plumbing. Some homes may have been built in accordance with
building codes, which actually encouraged the grounding of electrical appliances through the
plumbing system. Consequently, the installation of a bypass consisting of the same material
as the existing plumbing, or a grounded "jumper wire" bridging the equipment and re-
establishing the contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing system must be installed prior
to your systems use.
CAUTION:
When adding a filtration/softening system to homes/buildings supplied by well water, the system should be
installed following the pressure tank. DO NOT USE this system for pneumatic or hydro pneumatic
applications. If you are using a booster pump, then install this system following the booster
pump. If you have questions, please call customer service.

Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
Water leaking at the top of the tank around the head. You may need to turn the head to tighten it. The tank
head is pre-installed hand-tight, do not overtighten the
head (just turn it snug).
The tank leans to one side or is not level. If the tank is not level, lift the tank straight up 6 inches
and tap it on the ground until the tank stands vertical.
The bottom of the tank is round and the boot allows the
tank to stand upright.
How do I know how full the tank is? Use a flash light and shine it at the tank to determine
how full the tank is.
