Installation Instructions
STEP 1. TURN OFF WATER SUPPLY
1. Close the main water supply valve, near the well
pump or water meter.
2. Open all faucets to drain water from the house pipes.
NOTE: Be sure not to drain water from the water
heater, as damage to the water heater elements
could result.
STEP 2. MOVE THE WHOLE HOME WATER
FILTRATION SYSTEM INTO PLACE
FIG. 8
Plywood
Shim(s)
LEVEL IF NECESSARY
STEP 4. COLD WATER PIPE GROUNDING
CAUTION: The house cold water pipe (metal only)
is often used as a ground for the
house electrical system, The 3-valve
bypass type of installation, shown in
Figure 6, will maintain ground continu-
ity. If you use a plastic bypass valve at
the unit, continuity is broken. To
restore the ground, do the following:
1. Install a #4 copper wire across the removed sec-
tion of main water pipe, securely clamping it at
both ends (See Figure 9) - parts not included.
NOTE: Check local plumbing and electrical codes
for proper installation of the ground wire.
The installation must conform to them.
Consult with your licensed plumber.
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
Whole Home Water Filtration System.
Failure to do so can result in back or other
injury.
1. Move the Whole Home Water Filtration System into
installation position. Set it on a level surface. If
needed, place the unit on a section of plywood, a
minimum of 5/8” thick. Then place shims under the
plywood to level the Whole Home Water Filtration
System (see Figure 8).
STEP 3. COMPLETE INLET AND OUTLET
PLUMBING
Measure, cut, and loosely assemble pipe and fittings
from the main water pipe to the inlet and outlet ports
of the Whole Home Water Filtration System valve. Be
sure to keep fittings fully together, and pipes squared
and straight.
Be sure untreated water supply pipe goes to the
Whole Home Water Filtration System valve inlet side.
NOTE: Inlet and outlet are marked on the Whole
Home Water Filtration System valve. Trace
the water flow direction to be sure untreated
water is to inlet.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to fit, align and support all
plumbing to prevent putting stress on
the Whole Home Water Filtration
System valve inlet and outlet. Undue
stress from misaligned or unsupported
plumbing may cause damage to the
valve.
Complete the inlet and outlet plumbing for the type of
pipes you will be using.
