/ MONARCH PRO-FLO SERIES WATER SOFTENER PROGRAMMING &
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for choosing our water softener. Please read the following carefully, which if followed
correctly, should ensure the installation is trouble free.
/ A. PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
• Always observe the water byelaws.
• Ensure there is only one rising main.
• Make sure you have allowed space for access to the unit for salt filling and for any possible
maintenance in the future.
• Check the water pressure and locate the rising main, a drain facility and a power supply. Be aware
of condensation occurring in warm environments.
/ B. SITING THE SOFTENER
• Where possible, this should be close to the rising main.
• Tee off for mains water supply to outside tap if applicable.
• The distance between the softener and the drain should be as short as possible, to ensure that
both the drain and the overflow are not subject to freezing, or over 120°F/49°C.
• If siting the softener within a kitchen cupboard, loft etc. ensure that the base/floor is adequately
supported.
• If the softener is being installed in your loft, 1st, 2nd floor etc, it is strongly recommended to house
the softener within a 25-gallon plastic tank and insulate well. Monarch take no responsibility of
any water damage etc if this recommendation is not applied.
• The overflow on the plastic tank should be below the overflow of the softener and a minimum of
¾" in size. Failure to install the softener in a suitable tank will void the warranty.
/ C. CHECK VALVE
Softened water for drinking or food preparation is category 2 which requires a single check valve type
EA or EB.
/ D. DRINKING WATER FACILITY
In compliance with U.K. Water Regulations a tap for drinking water purposes should be left on the
hard water supply.
/ E. MATERIAL CHECK LIST
