Important Information
Read these instructions carefully and determine the location of all system components before beginning installation.
Check all applicable plumbing, building, and electrical codes for installation compliance.
Install the system on the main water supply.
Systems that contain electronic components cannot be installed outside in uncovered areas.
Water Conditions for Operation
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 (conductive) 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 systems use.
CAUTION:
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 Valve into the head of both the Pelican 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.
Notice:
The bypass valve(s) included with this system are designed for multiple Pelican 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.
