Installation Instructions

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

CAUTION: Observe all of the following cautions as you connect inlet and outlet plumbing. See Typical Installation Illustration.

•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 Typical Installation Illustration. If house water flows up from the floor level, turn the bypass valve upside down as shown.

OUT IN

•With the softener in place, determine the correct length of piping required to connect the household plumbing to the NPT male adapter.

•Remove softener from installation space.

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

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

•Use Teflon Tape 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.

•Slide softener back into position.

•Make final connections to the bypass valve and snap clips into place.

Be sure the clips for the bypass valve and NPT adapters snap into place. Pull on the bypass valve and NPT adapters to make sure the parts are held securely in place.

4CONNECT 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 supplied spring 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, part number WS07X10004. 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 1-1/2″between 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.”
