GENERAL INSTALLATION PRE-INSTALLATION AND SERVICE WARNINGS REVIEW WATER PRESSURE: A minimum of 20 psi water pressure The control valve, fitting assemblies and bypass valve are is required for backwash. Maximum 100 psi. CAUTION: the designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments filter cannot be subject to a vacuum due to loss of pressure but are not designed to support the weight of a system or (such as a water main break or submersible well pump check...
BYPASS VALVE The bypass valve is typically used to isolate the control valve from the plumbing system’s water pressure in order to perform control valve repairs or maintenance. The X-Factor bypass valve is particularly unique in the water treatment industry due to its versatility and state of the art design features.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (All electrical & plumbing should be done in accordance to all local codes) 1. Place filter in desired location close to water supply inlet, after pressure tank, and near a source for waste water, (utility sink, floor drain or sewer line).

Replace broken or damaged drive gears. Do not lubricate any of the gears. Avoid getting any foreign matter on the reflective coating because dirt or oils may interfere with pulse counting. The drive gear cover only fits on one way, with the large clip orientated towards the bottom. If all three clips are outside of the gear shroud on the drive bracket the drive gear cover slips easily into place.

OV15 CHECK VALVE CARTRIDGE (refer to page 17 for diagrams): To replace the check valve cartridge (recommended annually), pull out the elbow-locking clip and then pull straight up on the elbow. Replace the elbow locking clip in the slot so that it is not misplaced. Remove the white check valve cartridge. Install a new check valve cartridge as shown in diagrams by pushing the check valve cartridge into the elbow until the o-ring seats.
