Installation Instructions

4CONNECT AND RUN THE VALVE DRAIN HOSE (CONT.)

•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′.

CONNECTING A RIGID VALVE DRAIN TUBE

To adapt a copper drain tube to the softener, use a hacksaw to cut the barbed end from the drain fitting as shown. Rotate the drain fitting so the cutting blade clears the valve housing to prevent damage to valve. Buy a compression fitting (1/4″ female pipe thread x 1/2″ O.D. tube) and needed tubing from your local hardware store.
