Installation Instructions

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION

Be sure to check the entire softener for any shipping damage or parts loss. Also note damage to the shipping cartons. Contact the transportation company for all damage and loss claims. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages

in transit.

Small parts needed to install the softener are packaged either in a bag or on a cardboard sheet. To avoid loss of the small parts, keep them packaged until you are ready to use them. Be sure not to discard components hidden in packaging.

TOOLS AND MATERIALS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION

•Pliers

•Screwdriver

•Teflon tape

•Razor knife

•Two adjustable wrenches

•Additional tools may be required if modification to home plumbing is necessary.

•In and out fittings included with the softener are 1″ NPT male adapters. You should maintain the same, or larger, pipe size as the water supply pipe, up to the softener inlet and outlet. Then,

use the necessary adapters to connect the water supply to the 1″ NPT male adapters.

•Use the included bypass valve to install the softener. The bypass valve allows you to turn off water to the softener for servicing, but still have water in the house pipes. The NPT male adapters referred to above connect to the bypass valve with the included plastic clips.

•Use appropriate fitting/pipe material (i.e., copper, brass, galvanized or CPVC) to connect the 1″ NTP plastic adapters to the house plumbing.

•If additional drain hose is needed for valve and salt tank drains, it can be ordered from GE Parts at 800.626.2002, part number WS07X10004.

•If a rigid valve drain is needed to comply with

plumbing codes, you can buy the parts needed to connect a 1/2″ copper tubing or plastic pipe drain. See Step 4.

•Clean nugget or pellet water softener salt is needed to fill the brine tank. See Step 8.

WHERE TO INSTALL THE SOFTENER

•Place the softener as close as possible to a sewer drain, or other acceptable drain point or standpipe.

•It is recommended to keep outside faucets on hard water to save soft water and salt.

•Do not install the softener in a place where it could freeze. Freeze damage is not covered by the warranty.

•Do not install the softener where it would block access to the water heater or access to the main water shutoff.

•Put the softener in a place where water damage is least likely to occur if a leak develops. The manufacturer will not repair or pay for water damage.

•A 120-volt electric outlet is needed to plug in the included transformer. The softener has a 10-foot power cable. If the outlet is remote (up to 100 feet), use 18 gauge wire to connect. Be sure the electric outlet and transformer are in an inside location, to protect from wet weather. Be sure the outlet is unswitched to prevent accidental shutoff.

•If installing in an outside location, you must take the steps necessary to assure the softener, installation plumbing, wiring, etc., are as well protected from the elements (sunlight, rain, wind, heat, cold), contamination, vandalism, etc., as when installed indoors. Outdoor installation is not recommended, and voids the warranty.

•Keep the softener out of direct sunlight. The sun’s heat may distort non-metallic parts and may damage the electronics.
