Turn off the gas or electric supply to the water heater, in the possibility that the water heater may be drained while draining pipes.

Turn off the water supply to pipes to be cut and drain the house water pipes.

Open both hot and cold faucets at the lowest location possible. Release 2 clips at rear of cover. Rotate cover forward and lift up.

NOTE: For easier installation, remove the top cover.

Push the bypass valve (lubricate o-ring seals with silicone grease) into both ports of the valve as shown in Fig. 3A.

Snap the 2 large plastic clips in place, from the top, down as shown in Figures 3A and 3B. Be sure they snap into place. Pull on the bypass valve to make sure it is held securely in place.

2.MOVE THE SOFTENER ASSEMBLY INTO INSTALLATION POSITION

Be sure the installation surface is level and smooth. Sharp objects under the tank may puncture it. If needed, place the tank on a section of 3/4″ thick (minimum) plywood. Then, place shims under the plywood as needed to level the softener.

If making a soldered copper installation, do all sweat soldering before connecting pipes to the bypass valve. Torch heat will damage plastic parts.

When turning threaded pipe fittings onto plastic fittings, use care not to cross-thread.

Use pipe joint compound on all external pipe threads.

Support inlet and outlet plumbing in some manner (use pipe hangers) to keep the weight off of the valve fittings.

Turn bypass valve upside down to connect to floor level plumbing
