Water Conditions For Operation - Natursoft Pro Systems

 The water should be free of hydrogen sulfide, a dissolved gas with a characteristic smell of rotten

eggs. If present, it can coat the catalytic surface of the media and interfere with the process. The gas should be removed through adequate pre-treatment.

 The water should be free of hydrocarbons, oils, and lubricants. If present, they can coat the catalytic

surface of the media and interfere with the process. Remove through adequate pre-treatment.

 The water should contain less than 1 mg/l of phosphates. Phosphates sequester dissolved hardness

molecules preventing them from forming crystals and may coat the catalytic media surface and interfere with the process.

 The copper level in the water supply should be below the MCL of 1.3mg/L. If copper is present above

this level, it can attach to the surface of the catalytic media and interfere with the process.

WARNING:

If this or any other system is installed in a metal (co nductive) plumbing system, i.e. copper or galvanized metal, the plastic components of the system will interrupt the continuity of the plumbing system. As a result any errant electricity from improperly grounded appliances downstream or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground through contiguous metal plumbing. Some homes may have been built in accordance with building codes, which actually encouraged the grounding of electrical appliances through the plumbing system. Consequently, the installation of a bypass consisting of the same material as the existing plumbing, or a grounded "jumper wire" bridging the equipment and reestablishing the contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing system must be installed prior to your system’s use.

When adding a filtration/softening system to homes/buildings supplied by well water, the system should be installed following the pressure tank. DO NOT USE this system for pneumatic or hydro pneumatic

applications. If you are using a booster pump, then install this system following the booster pump. If you have questions, please call customer service.

The Bypass Valve comes pre-assembled and ready to install with the O-Rings, Split Rings, and Quick Connect Nuts. Push the Bypass Valv e into the head of both the Enviro Water Products Whole House Water Filter and Salt Free Water Softener/Conditioner with the unthreaded ends oriented toward the tanks and hand-tighten the Quick Connect Nuts.

The bypass valve(s) included with this system are designed for multiple Enviro Water Products water systems. This may result in the arrows on the bypass valve(s) pointing differently than shown. If the arrows on your bypass valve(s) do not match the diagram, remove the red arrows by pulling them straight up, turn them 180° to match the drawing, and push them back down onto the stem.

1. Reattach the garden hose to the Hose Bib Assembly.

2. Slowly turn on the water 1/4 turn for this entire process.

3. Run water through the upflow inlet side of the Bypass Valve for 15-30 minutes or until the water discharging from the downflow inlet side of the Bypass Valve runs clear.

4. Turn off the water.

5. Remove the Hose Bib Assembly from the upflow inlet side and attach it to the downflow inlet side of the Bypass Valve.

6. Run the water through the downflow inlet side for 1 minute or until water runs clear.

7. Turn off the water.

8. Remove the Hose Bib Assembly from the Bypass Valve and disconnect the garden hose. Note: Please save the Hose Bib Assembly as this will be used in the future for the carbon

exchange.

Media Soak

Figure 9

Rev B

Page 12

The Enviro Water Products Whole House Water Filter must be in the bypass position during this process (see Figure above).

1. Open a cold water faucet or test spigot close to the downstream of the Water Softener.

2. Turn the water back on at the main shut-off valve allowing the system to fill with water. The air being displaced will escape through the open fixture downstream.

3. Turn the arrows on the Bypass V alv e into the Bypass Mode position displayed abov e to bypass the tank. This will allow you to isolate the system and restore water supply to the home/building during the media soak.

4. Allow the tank to soak for at least 60 minutes.

Media Flush/Condition

The Enviro Water Products Whole House Water Filter must be in the bypass position during this process (see Figure).

1. After the tank has soaked for 60 minutes, turn the main water supply back on or turn the arrows on the Bypass Valve back into their original position.

2. Flush the system by running water for 5 minutes at a high flow rate of 5 GPM (this can be achieved by using a bath tub or more than 3 faucets).

Note: The flush water may have a milky look to it. This is normal as calcium carbonate fines are flushed from the system.

3. Rinse the system by reducing the flow rate to ½ GPM and run water for 60 minutes (this can be achieved by turning one faucet ¼ of the way on).

4. Turn the Whole House Water Filter Bypass Valve to the on position (out of Bypass Mode).
