PLUMBING CODES
VALVE DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
All plumbing must be completed in accordance with national, state and local plumbing codes.
In the state of Massachusetts: The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts plumbing code 248-CMR shall be adhered to. A licensed plumber shall be used
for this installation.
AIR GAP REQUIREMENTS
A drain is needed for Clean Rinse discharge water. A floor drain, close to the Central Water Filtration
System, is preferred. A laundry tub, standpipe, etc. are other drain options. Secure valve drain hose in
place. Leave an air gap of 1-1/2" between the end of the hose and the drain. This gap is needed to prevent
backflow of sewer water into the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System. Do not put the end of the
drain hose into the drain.

Using the flexible drain hose (included), measure and cut to the length needed. Flexible drain hose is not allowed in all localities (check your plumbing codes). If
local codes do not allow use of a flexible drain hose, a
rigid valve drain run must be used. Purchase a com-
pression fitting (1/4 NPT x 1/2 in. minimum tube) and
1/2" tubing from your local hardware store. Plumb a
rigid drain as needed (see Figure 3, below).
NOTE: Avoid drain hose runs longer that 30 feet.
Make the valve drain line as short and direct as possible.
It is recommended that the Central Water Whole Home
Filtration System be installed near a drain. However, if a drain is not available, it is still possible to operate the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System in a

NORMAL OPERATION
During normal operation water enters the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System and flows through several filtration processes where tastes,
odors and sediment are reduced.
APPLICATIONS FOR A CENTRAL WATER
FILTRATION SYSTEM
Do not use the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate dis- infection before or after the system.
CLEAN RINSE CYCLE
A Clean Rinse cycle will automatically be initiated based on how many gallons of water have been fil- tered through the system (or after 14 days if no water has passed through the system in that time). The Clean Rinse cycle lifts and expands the media bed to rejuvenate the media and then repacks the bed for continued use. During the Clean Rinse cycle, dirt,
sediment, etc. are flushed from the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System down the drain.
The Central Water Whole Home Filtration System
may not be an effective treatment method for water sources with a hydrogen sulfide problem (rotten egg odor or taste) If your water has hydrogen sulfide, contact your local Sears store associate for
Kenmore solutions.
The Central Water Filtration System will not remove
iron and is not intended to replace iron treatment equipment.
Although the Central Water Filtration System has
sediment filter capabilities, additional sediment filtra-
tion may be needed in problem water applications.

IMPORTANT:
Run the start up cycle immediately after completing installation, before using any
water in the home.
During the start up cycle:
The filtration media in this Central Water Whole Home
Filtration System contains a small number of harmless activated carbon particles generated during shipping that are small enough to exit the system with water flow. It is normal for these particles to cause a tempo- rary discoloration of the water coming out of the sys- tem. To avoid discolored water at your home's faucets the system's start up cycle should be initiated to rinse the particles and any discolored water down the drain.
If the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System is used without first running the start up cycle, you will notice that the water will temporarily have a gray color until the particles have exited the system.
To Initiate the start up cycle:
1. Make sure the drain hose is attached to the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System and the other
end is secured over a drain (see "Install Valve Drain
Hose" on Page 10).
2. Make sure bypass valve is in the "service" (open or filtered water) position and the home's water supply
is turned on.
3. Press and hold the CLEAN button to initiate the start up cycle. The button can be released when
you hear the valve changing position and "RECHARGE NOW" flashes in the display.
Throughout the start up cycle you will hear the valve changing position and notice the flow of water to drain starting and stopping. The start up cycle will take approximately 20 minutes. Avoid using water during this time. Do not set the time of day or press other
buttons during the start up cycle, as this will interrupt
the start up cycle. Do not unplug the transformer dur-
ing the start up cycle. If the start up cycle is interrupt-
ed, it should be initiated again and allowed to run to completion.
After the start up cycle:
Once the start up procedure completes successfully, it cannot be initiated a second time. The Central Water
Whole Home Filtration System will automatically return to the normal operation position. Once the start up cycle has run, a faucet in the home should be opened and water allowed to run for 10 minutes at the sys- tem's rated flow. If, after running the start up cycle, the water still appears discolored, manually run Clean
Rinse cycles (See Page 14) until the water is clear. If the time of day was not set before the start up cycle,
set it now (See Page 12). Check the new plumbing connections and joints once
more for leaks.

button a few times, until the time appears in the display, but is not
flashing.
SET LENGTH OF CLEAN RINSE
By default the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System's Clean Rinse cycle will consist of a 2 minute backwash followed by a 1 minute fast rinse. This should be sufficient for most applications.
Increasing the length of Clean Rinse time will increase the amount of water flushed to drain during each Clean Rinse cycle. Increasing the length of Clean Rinse should only be done in cases of very high amounts of sediment, or other water issues.

SETTING THE FREQUENCY OF AUTOMATIC CLEAN RINSE CYCLES
The Central Water Whole Home Filtration System will automatically initiate Clean Rinse cycles based on how much water has been filtered through the system. The default is to run a Clean Rinse cycle after 3000 gallons have been filtered. The Clean Rinse cycle takes place at the preset time of day (1:00 a.m. is the default). The system also will initiate an automatic Clean Rinse cycle if no water has been run through the system in 14 days, to keep
the filter bed fresh. The Central Water Whole Home Filtration System allows the frequency of
automatic Clean Rinse cycles to be increased for systems where the water supply may have more sediment than in a typical municipal water supply. The table below shows the three settings available. The unit is shipped with
"CLn 1" as the default.

OPERATING IN MANUAL CLEAN RINSE MODE
Clean Rinse cycles will run automatically, unless the automatic Clean Rinse function has been disabled. If this function has been disabled, it will be
necessary to manually initiate any Clean Rinse cycles. It is recommended that a Clean Rinse cycle should be run at least once each month, or more frequently if necessary.
A manual Clean Rinse mode may be used when a drain (required for auto- matic Clean Rinse) is not available. However, it is recommended that auto- matic Clean Rinse be used if the drain requirements can be met.
IMPORTANT: During the Clean Rinse cycle, whether manually or automati- cally initiated, water will flow from the valve drain port at 3.4 gallons per min. for 3 minutes. If a permanent drain line has not been installed, provi- sions must be made for the drain flow prior to initiating a Clean Rinse cycle You must have empty containers ready that will hold at least 15 gallons of
water.
DISABLING AUTOMATIC CLEAN RINSE
To disable the automatic Clean Rinse function:
1. Press and immediately release the CLEAN button (pressing and holding
the button a few seconds would initiate a Clean Rinse cycle).
2. "RECHARGE OFF" will flash in the display, as shown in Figure 18, indi-
cating that the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System is in the
manual Clean Rinse mode (the automatic Clean Rinse function has been
disabled).
MANUALLY STARTING A CLEAN RINSE CYCLE
To manually start a Clean Rinse cycle:
1. If the drain line is not set up to discharge into a drain, you must have
empty containers ready that will hold at least 15 gallons of water.
2. Press and hold the CLEAN button for a few seconds, until "RECHARGE
NOW" flashes in the display, as shown in Figure 19.
3. When the Clean Rinse cycle is complete, the Central Water Whole Home
Filtration System will remain in the manual Clean Rinse mode.
RE-ENABLING AUTOMATIC CLEAN RINSE
To return the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System to its automatic Clean Rinse function:
1. Press and immediately release the CLEAN button.
2. The flashing "RECHARGE OFF" on the display should be replaced by the
normal time of day screen, as shown in Figure 20.

POWER OUTAGE MEMORY
If electrical power to the Central Water Whole Home
Filtration System is lost, "memory" built into the con- troller circuitry will keep all settings for up to eight hours, While the power is out, the display is blank and the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System will
not Clean Rinse, When electrical power is restored, you have to reset
the time of day only if the display is flashing. The Clean Rinse TIME never requires resetting unless a change is desired. Even if the clock is incorrect after a long power outage, the Central Water Whole Home
Filtration System works as it should to keep your water treated. However, Clean Rinse cycles may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the clock to the correct time of day.
NOTE: If the Central Water Whole Home Filtration
System was in a Clean Rinse cycle when power was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
VACATIONS AND EXTENDED PERIODS OF
NO WATER USE
If your Central Water Whole Home Filtration System
will not be used for an extended period of time (sever-
al months), please follow one of these recommenda-
tions:
If the water supply to the unit is not turned off, and
the automatic Clean Rinse function has not been
disabled, then no further actions are required. The Central Water Filtration System will clean itself
every 14 days if no water has run through it. If you do not want Clean Rinse cycle to be running
automatically while you are gone, it is recommend- ed that you unplug the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System and either shut off the water sup- ply or place the bypass valve(s) into the bypass position.
If the Clean Rinse cycle cannot be automatically run, due to the water supply being shut off, the
transformer being unplugged or the automatic
Clean Rinse function being disabled, then it is rec- ommended that a minimum of 2 manually initiated Clean Rinse cycles be performed when the system is placed back into operation (see Start a Clean Rinse Cycle section on Page 14).
In any installation where there is a possibility of
freezing, the Central Water Filtration System should
be disconnected and the water drained (see Protect the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System from Freezing section on Page 18).

PROTECT THE CENTRAL WATER FILTRA-
TION SYSTEM FROM FREEZING
If the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System is installed where it could freeze (summer cabin, lake home, etc.), you must drain all water from it to stop possible freeze damage. If the system freezes, cracks may develop in plastic parts, which will leak causing damage.
To drain the unit:
1. Close the shut-off valve on the house main water pipe, near the water meter or pressure tank.
2. Open a faucet in the filtered water pipes to vent pressure in the unit.
3. Move the stem in the single bypass valve to bypass.
Close the inlet and outlet valve in a 3 valve bypass system, and open the bypass valve. If you want water in the house pipes again, reopen the shut-off valve on the main water pipe.
4. Unplug the transformer at the wall outlet. Take off
the drain hose if it will interfere with moving the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System into
position over the drain.
5. Remove the large holding clips at the Central Water
Whole Home Filtration System inlet and outlet (See
Figure 8 on Page 8). Separate the unit from the plastic installation adaptors, or from the bypass
valve.
6. Lay a piece of 2 inch thick board near the floor drain (See Figure 21).
7. Move the Central Water Whole Home Filtration
System close to the drain. Slowly and gently, tip it over until the rim rests on the wood block with the
inlet and outlet over the drain (See Figure 21). Do not allow the unit's weight to rest on the inlet and
outlet fittings or they may break.
8. Tip the bottom of the Central Water Whole Home Filtration System up a few inches and rest it on
something like a wood block that will allow water to drain. Rest the bottom on two stacked wood blocks.
Leave the unit laying like this until you are ready to use it. Plug the inlet and outlet with clean rags to keep dirt, bugs, etc. out.
