General

•Observe all warnings that appear in this manual.

•Keep the media tank in the upright position. Do not turn upside down or drop. Turning the tank upside down will cause media to enter the valve.

•Operating ambient temperature is between 34°F (1°C) and 120°F (49°C).

•Operating water temperature is between 34°F (1°F) and 100°F (38°C).

•Working water pressure range is 20 to 120 psi (1.38 to 8.27 bar). In Canada the acceptable working water pressure range is 20 to 100 psi (1.38 to 6.89 bar).

•Use only regenerant salts designed for water softening. Do not use ice melting, block, or rock salts.

•Follow state and local codes for water testing. Do not use water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality.

•When filling media tank, do not open water valve completely. Fill tank slowly to prevent media from exiting the tank.

•When installing the water connection (bypass or manifold) connect to the plumbing system first. Allow heated parts to cool and cemented parts to set before installing any plastic parts. Do not get primer or solvent on O-rings, nuts, or the valve.
