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. Older homes may have been built in accordance with
building codes from decades ago, some of 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 re-establishing the contiguous conductive nature of the
plumbing system must be installed prior to your systems use.
When adding a filtration/softening system to homes/buildings supplied by well water, the syst em 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.
