Installation Steps and Start-Up Procedures, Cont.
Step 4
Connect Gravity Overflow Connection
The overflow line drains away excess water should the
tank fill with too much water or the appliance malfunction.
A.
Check that the overflow elbow is in the down position.
B.
Connect 1/2-inch (13-mm) I.D. tubing (size cannot be
reduced) between the overflow fitting and a floor
drain, laundry tub, or other suitable waste receptor.
This tubing is not supplied with the appliance. Ensure
that the overflow line ends at a drain that is at least
3 inches (8 cm) lower than the bottom of the overflow
fitting. Maintain a minimum 2-inch (5-cm) air gap. The
gravity line cannot be run overhead.
Step 5
Connect Drain Line
The drain line carries away the backwash water as part of
the regeneration cycle.
A.
Connect the drain line to the drain end cap with a
minimum 5/8-inch (16-mm) I.D. tubing (supplied). The
size cannot be reduced.
B.
Route the drain line to a floor drain, laundry tub, or
other suitable waste receptor. Maintain a minimum
2-inch (5-cm) air gap between the drain line and the
flood level rim of the waste receptor to prevent
back-siphoning. This drain line should make the
shortest run to the suitable drain.
C.
The drain line may be elevated up to 8 feet (2.4 m)
from the discharge on the appliance as long as the
water pressure in your system is 40 psi (2.8 bar) or
more.
D.
If the drain line is 25 feet (7.6 m) or longer, increase
the drain line to 3/4-inch (19-mm) I.D. The end of the
drain line must be equal to or lower in height than the
control valve.
Caution: The drain line must not be kinked,
crimped, or restricted in any way.
Step 6
Flush Lines
A.
If your appliance is equipped with a bypass, place the
appliance in the Bypass position.
B.
Turn on the main water supply.
C.
Open the nearest cold water faucet to flush the
plumbing of any excess soldering flux, air, or any
other foreign material.
