2. Place the tanks near a water source.

A. Select a position near a floor drain that has adequate carrying capacity to handle the
backwash flow rate. Refer to the specification Table in Section 8 for the appropriate flow rate.
B. Place the softener(s) and brine tank on a level, firm foundation, like concrete.
C. Determine the "front" of each tank received. For each tank:
a. Make sure that the distributer riser is flush with the top of
the resin tank.
b. Before placing any water, gravel, or resin in the resin tank,
screw in a control valve to the point where it is secure. The
valve does not need to be forced on, but should be snug.
c. The two tanks should be placed next to each other, with the
brine tank off to the side. The correct distance between the
two tanks can be determined by connecting the MAV to
both valve outlets.
d. Mark the "front" of each resin tank (shown in Figure 7) with
either a marker or tape. The front of the resin tank is
determined by the location of the face of the control valve
once it has been secured to the face of the control valve.
Make sure that the system is positioned in a way that the
plumbing can be installed.
D. Before Filling the Tanks:
e. Remove the valve(s)
f. Ensure that the front(s) of the tank(s) is/are positioned correctly. Once filled, the resin
tanks will be very difficult to move.
g. Cover the exposed end of the distributor riser(s) to make sure no resin gets inside. Covering
up the riser(s) with duct tape is one option, shown in Figure 8.
h. Obtain a funnel to assist placing the resin in the resin tanks. (A funnel designed specifically
for our resin tanks can be ordered from Diamond H2O Conditioning. The part numbers for
the two types of funnels are table 3.)

3. Setting up the tank:

A. Fill the tank up to 30% full of water.
B. Check the system specifications on page 2 to determine the correct amount of resin needed
for your system.
C. Position the distributor tube so it is in the center of the tank, shown in Figure 9. The
distributor tube should sit about an inch higher than the tank.
