Make
sure the 18" flexible pipes are long enough to reach
from the bypass valve on the water softener to where you are
going to cut the water line pipe.
-
Turn
off the water supply to the house and open a faucet to relieve
the pressure.
-
Cut
the water line and then slide the compression fittings onto
the newly cut pipe.
Note: the rubber ferrels included with the compression
connectors are only used with 1/2" lines. With 3/4"
lines they can be discarded.
-
Tighten
the compression connectors firmly using two adjustable wrenches
against each other.
-
Connect
one end of the 18" flexible line to the newly installed
compression connector and the other end to the By-Pass valve
on the WindsorTM
System SaverTM
Water Softener. Tighten the flexible connectors being careful
not to over tighten the connections on the plastic By-Pass
valve.
Note: Make sure the inlet water line is connected to the
inlet side of the By-Pass valve and the outlet water line
is connected to the outlet side of the By-Pass valve. Inlet
and outlet are marked on the valve body.
-
Once
both lines are connected and tightened you are finished plumbing-in
your WindsorTM
System SaverTM
Water Softener. Slowly turn on the water supply and continue
with the water softener set-up.
