Step-by-step installation instructions.

Turn off the gas or electric supply to the water heater, in the possibility that the water Fig. 3A 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.

NOTE: For easier installation, remove the top cover. Release 2 clips at rear of the 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.

3. PLUMB “IN” AND “OUT” PIPES TO AND FROM SOFTENER

CAUTION: Observe all of the following cautions as you connect inlet and

outlet plumbing. See illustrations on page 5.

BE SURE INCOMING HARD WATER SUPPLY IS DIRECTED TO THE

 

SOFTENER VALVE INLET PORT. If house water flow is from the left, use a

 

plumbing crossover as shown in Fig. 1, page 5. If house water flows up from the

 

floor level, turn the bypass valve upside down as shown in Fig. 3C.

 

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

4. CONNECT AND RUN THE VALVE DRAIN HOSE

Use the provided drain hose (20′ length included) to attach to the valve drain fitting. To keep water pressure from blowing the hose off, use a hose clamp to secure

in place. Cut the necessary length and use the remainder in Step 5.

Locate the other end of the hose at a suitable drain point (floor drain, sump, laundry tub, etc.) that terminates at the sewer. Check and comply with local codes.

IMPORTANT: If more drain hose is needed, it should be ordered from GE Parts at 800.626.2002. The water softener will not work if water cannot exit this hose during

recharge.

Tie or wire the hose in place at the drain point. High water pressure will cause it to

whip during the back-wash and fast rinse cycles of recharge. Also provide an air gap

of at least 112between the end of the hose and the drain point. An air gap prevents

possible siphoning of sewer water into the softener, if the sewer should “back-up.”

Elevating the drain hose may cause back pressure that could reduce the brine

draw during recharge. If raising the drain line overhead is required to get to the

drain point, measure the inlet water pressure to the softener first. For inlet pressures

between 20 and 50 psi, do not raise higher than 8′ above the floor. For inlet

pressure above 50 psi, the drain line may be raised to a maximum height of 14′.
