Pre Installation

1. Review your packing list and make sure you have received all the parts before beginning

installation.

2. If you are going to be turning off the water to the house and you have an electric water heater,

shut off the power to the water heater before beginning installation in case water heater is

accidentially drained.

3. Pick a suitable location for your filter system on a dry level spot where it won't be exposed to

freezing temperatures. A minimum of 20 PSI is required. Maximum pressure is 90 PSI.

4. Get all of your plumbing parts together before beginning installation. Installation typically takes

3 to 5 hours. However after installation the WS1 Water Softener must be allowed to run

through a complete backwash and rinse cycle (also called 'regeneration'). This takes about 90

minutes.

5. After the system is installed and running, your water may be discolored, or full of sediment or

rust, if you have older piping that has been exposed to sediment, iron or manganese for some

time. Typically this clears up over a day or two, but can persist for weeks if the pipe is old

galvanized iron pipe that is corroded.

Best Practices for Piping & Drain Installation

1. See typical installation (see Fig 1). The water softener is installed after the pressure tank.

2. Make sure to connect the inlet pipe to the WS1 Softener inlet and the outlet to the outlet (see

Fig 2). You can see the in and out arrows on the bypass valve which is where the pipes are

connected.

3. Make sure there is a working gate or ball valve before the water softener and also one after as

shown in the diagram. If you are installing multiple filter systems (such as iron filter then water

softener) you do not need a valve in between each system. The pressure gauges are optional

and not necessary but a hose bib (which is a faucet that you can attach a garden hose to) is

strongly recommended after the water softener before the second ball valve. This makes it easy

to rinse your new softener on start up and gives you a place to test the water before it enters

your household plumbing.

4. If you will be using copper piping, do not sweat the copper pipe directly to the plastic bypass

valve. Avoid heating up the bypass valve with the torch.
