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 1″ full flow bypass valve incorporates four positions, including a diagnostic position that allows a service technician to have pressure to test a system while providing untreated bypass water to the building. Be sure to install bypass valve onto main control valve before beginning plumbing or make provisions in the plumbing system for a bypass. The bypass body and rotors are glass-filled Noryl® and the nuts and caps are glass-filled polypropylene. All seals are self-lubricating EPDM to help prevent valve seizing after long periods of non-use. Internal “O” Rings can easily be replaced if service is required.
The bypass consists of two interchangeable plug valves that are operated independently by red arrow shaped handles. The handles identify the direction of flow. The plug valves enable the bypass valve to operate in four positions.
1. NORMAL OPERATION POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point in the direction of flow indicated by the engraved
arrows on the control valve. Water flows through the control valve for normal operation of a water softener or filter. During the regeneration cycle this position provides regeneration water to the unit, while also providing untreated water to the distribution system (Fig. 1).
2. BYPASS POSITION: The inlet and outlet handles point to the center of the bypass. The system is isolated from the water
pressure in the plumbing system. Untreated water is supplied to the building (Fig. 2).
3. DIAGNOSTIC POSITION: The inlet handle points toward the control valve and the outlet handle points to the center of bypass
valve. Untreated supply water is allowed to flow to the system and to the building, while not allowing water to exit from the system to the building (Fig. 3). This allows the service technician to test the unit and perform other functions without disrupting the water going to the building.
NOTE: The system must be rinsed before returning the bypass valve to the normal position.
4. SHUT OFF POSITION: The inlet handle points to the center of the bypass valve and the outlet handle points away from the
control valve. The water is shut off to the building. The water treatment system will depressurize upon opening a tap in the building. A negative pressure in the building combined with the unit being in regeneration could cause a siphoning to the building. If water is available on the outlet side of the unit, it is an indication of water bypassing the system (Fig. 4) (i.e. a plumbing cross-connection somewhere in the building).

INSTALLATION

GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The control valve, fittings and/or bypass are designed to accommodate minor plumbing misalignments. There is a small amount of “give” to properly connect the piping, but the water treatment unit is not designed to support the weight of the plumbing.
Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants, or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black “O” Rings, but is not necessary. Avoid any type of lubricants, including silicone, on red or clear lip seals.
Do not use pipe dope or other sealants on threads. Teflon® tape must be used on the threads of the 1″ NPT inlet and outlet and on the threads for the drain line connection. Teflon® tape is not used on the nut connections or caps because “O” Ring seals are used. The nuts and caps are designed to be unscrewed or tightened by hand or with the special plastic Service Wrench,

100249864 (CV3193-02). If necessary, pliers can be used to unscrew the nut or

cap. Do not use a pipe wrench to tighten nuts or caps. Do not place screwdriver in slots on caps and/or tap with a hammer.

WATER SUPPLY

1. The distance between the drain and the water conditioner should be as short as possible (see #8).
2. The media tank should be installed on a firm, level surface (above or below grade).
3. It is NOT recommended to install any water treatment unit with less than 10 feet of piping between its outlet and the inlet of a water heater.
CAUTION: To protect the unit in the event of a hot water heater backup, the manufacturer recommends the use of an expansion tank on the outlet side of the unit (see diagram).

4. Do not locate unit where it or its connections (including the drain and overflow lines) will ever be subjected to temperatures under 33°F.
5. Do not subject the tank to any vacuum as this may cause an “implosion” and could result in leaking. If there is a possibility a vacuum could occur, please make provision for a vacuum breaker in the installation.
6. INLET/OUTLET PLUMBING: Be sure to install Bypass Valve onto main control valve before beginning plumbing. If it is desired to bypass outside hydrants, a cold water kitchen sink, or other locations, provisions should be made at this time. Install an inlet shutoff valve and plumb to the unit’s bypass valve inlet located at the right rear as you face the unit. There are a variety of installation fittings available. They are listed under the Installation Fitting Assemblies section of the manual. When assembling the installation fitting package (inlet and outlet), connect the fitting to the plumbing system first and then attach the nut, split ring and “O” Ring. Heat from soldering or solvent cements may damage the nut, split ring or “O” Ring. Solder joints should be cool and solvent cements should be set before installing the nut, split ring and “O” Ring. Avoid getting solder flux, primer, and solvent cement on any part of the “O” Rings, split rings, bypass valve or control valve. If the building’s electrical system is grounded to the plumbing, install a copper grounding strap from the inlet to the outlet pipe. Plumbing must be done in accordance with all applicable local codes.
When installing an air regenerating filter the customer may experience, under certain conditions, small amounts of air (cloudy water) at the taps. This is normal. On rare occasions, this may result in “shots of air” at a particular fixture. By installing a loop or “U” on the outlet side of the unit, this will act as an air trap and improve this situation.
An internal check valve is located inside the inlet on air filtration units (see diagram at right). This check valve holds the air in the system, preventing its escape from the tank. Plumbing codes may require the installation of a thermal expansion tank on the outlet side of the system to prevent a water heater backup condition.

INSTALLATION

Provisions should be made to bypass outside hydrants that are not to have filtered water. It is also advisable to install hose bibs on the inlet and outside of the filter for future testing and service of the equipment. Where heavy sediment from the well is observed, it is advisable to install a cartridge or bag-style filter immediately upstream from the filter. A nominal micron rating of 50 to 100 is recommended. The purpose of this is to protect the control valve of any debris from the well. If desired, a cartridge filter may be used after the system as a polishing filter.

7. INSTALLING GROUND: To maintain an electrical ground in metal plumbing of a home’s cold water piping (such as a copper plumbing system), install a ground clamp or jumper wiring.
NOTE: If replacing an existing unit, also replace the ground clamps/wire. If removing a unit, replace the piping with the same type of piping as the original to assure plumbing integrity and grounding.

GROUND STRAP
SHUTOFF VALVE

8. DRAIN LINE: First, be sure that the drain can handle the backwash rate of the system. Solder joints near the valve must be done prior to connecting the drain line flow control fitting. Leave at least 6″ between the drain line flow control fitting and solder joints. Failure to do this could cause interior damage to the flow control.

Backwash of an automatic filter can be directed into a septic tank in most cases, but because of the higher volume of water discharged, care should be taken. The backwash discharge can be directed to a subsurface drainage system or other safe location. Remember to follow all local codes.

GROUND STRAP

When installing the drain line on any backwashing filter, especially filters that utilize air as the regenerant, hard piping such as PVC, Schedule 80 Plastic or copper is recommended. Remove the drain line nut (if included) and discard. A 3/4″ NPT connection on the elbow is provided. During backwash, high volumes of water (more than a softener) and air can be expelled. This release of air can cause a thrashing or movement of the drain line causing it to dislodge from the drain, resulting in water damage. In order to prevent this, it is recommended to use other means of securing the drain line to the floor, wall or ceiling to avoid this thrashing of piping. Our patent pending Backwash Air cycle greatly reduces the chance of this occurring but should not be the only means of protection.

Where the drain line is elevated but empties into a drain below the level of the control valve, form a 7″ loop at the discharge end of the line so that the bottom of the loop is level with the drain connection on the control valve. This will provide an adequate anti-siphon trap. Piping the drain line overhead <10 ft is normally not a problem. Be sure adequate pressure is available (40-60 psi is recommended). Where the drain empties into an overhead sewer line, a sink-type trap must be used. Run drain to its discharge point in accordance with plumbing codes. Pay special attention to codes for air gaps and anti-siphon devices.

CAUTION: Never insert a drain line into a drain, sewer line, or trap. Always allow an air gap of 1-1/2″ or twice the pipe diameter, whichever is greater, between the drain line and the wastewater to prevent the possibility of sewage being back-siphoned into the unit.

9. CHECK VALVE (AIR FILTRATION SYSTEMS ONLY): All air systems include an internal check valve and screen assembly as part of the air draw system (see diagram at right). This check valve, screen, and elbow are exclusive to the air system and are not to be confused or interchanged with a brine elbow used on a softener. The gray color of the elbow indicates use with an air system vs. a black elbow which indicates use with a water softener.
NOTE: Under certain conditions (finished basements, utility room, etc.) it may be advisable to disconnect the screen and run a 3/8″ line close to a drain, in case of check valve failure and water leakage.
CAUTION: Check valve may be under pressure and can result in sudden release of part, causing injury.
In order to replace or remove the check valve from the control valve, it is necessary to relieve the pressure from the system. Place filter into by-pass mode (Fig. 2 Page 4) and release pressure by manually stepping through an entire regeneration sequence. This will adequately release the pressure on the system so the check valve can be serviced. After servicing, replace part, secure the check valve assembly with the red clip. Open by-pass to the normal service position (Fig. 1 Page 4).
10. OZONE GENERATOR KIT (OPTIONAL): In situations where additional cleaning is needed due to high levels of iron or sulfur bacteria, an optional Ozone Generator (part # 100349795, OZ-1-A) may be beneficial. This optional device produces ozone, a powerful cleaning agent which is used to help reduce service calls due to nuisance bacteria. Please refer to the OZ-1-A Installation Instruction guide or consult with your local dealer or distributor for more information.
Nuisance bacteria refers to iron and sulfate reducing bacteria which is harmless to human health. This bacteria can cause slime, taste, and odor issues.

STARTUP INSTRUCTIONS

FLUSHING OF SYSTEM: To flush the system of any debris and air after installation is complete, please perform the following steps:
1. Rotate bypass handles to the bypass mode (see Fig. 2 of page 4). 2. Turn on inlet water and check for leaks in the newly installed plumbing. 3. Fully open a cold water faucet, preferable at a laundry sink or bathtub without an aerator. 4. Wait two to three minutes or until water runs clear, then turn water off and follow start-up instructions.
System regeneration sequence is in the following order. Some sequence differences may be noticed depending upon local conditions. (If it is desired to change this sequence, please contact the manufacturer.)
Sequencing for Various Filters: Air Filters (Iron & Sulfur) 1. Backwash Air 2. Backwash 3. Regenerant Draw Down (Air draw) 4. Return to service

Inch Worm Feature: Air filter units are programmed with the backwash air cycle feature (nicknamed “inch worm”). This unique feature allows for small movements or “inching” of the piston towards the backwash cycle. As the piston approaches this cycle, the backwash port opens slightly with each advancement, allowing air to escape to drain. This cycle is twelve very small mini steps of the piston which take place twenty seconds apart. Usually midway between the twelve positions, the air begins to be released very slowly to the drain in normal operating conditions. When first starting up an air sulfur or air iron, it is advised to step through these positions and go to the normal backwash cycle in order to fill the unit.

To Advance in Backwash Air Cycle:
1. Pushing the button will advance to each of the twelve mini steps within the backwash air cycle. While there are usually twelve steps to this cycle, the valve may make two or three movements for each step. Wait for these movements to complete before pressing again.
2. Pushing and holding the button for three seconds while in the Backwash Air cycle will skip the remaining mini steps and proceed to the next cycle of regeneration which is usually Backwash.

The system is now ready for filling with water and for testing for Air Filters. NOTE: The “filling” sequence below represents the start-up procedure for Air Filters. Please reference “Sequence for Various Filters” for proper regeneration sequence (shown above).

1. Place the bypass valve into the bypass mode (Fig. 2 on page 4).
2. Press and hold the button until the motor starts. Release button. Put the valve into “BACKWASH” position. (Please see note above.) Unplug the transformer so that the valve will not cycle to the next position. Open the inlet handle of the bypass valve very slightly allowing water to fill the tank slowly in order to expel air.

CAUTION: If water flows too rapidly, there will be a loss of media to the drain. Certain medias such as carbon, or other dry medias, should not be backwashed immediately for extended periods of time. These medias need to “soak” in the water for a 24-hour period prior to full backwash conditions.
Dry media exposed to water too quickly in backwash will result in media plugging the drain and valve assembly.
3. After the water is flowing steadily to the drain, clear and without the presence of air, slowly open the inlet valve. Restore power and momentarily press the button to advance the control to the “REGENERANT DRAW DOWN” position.
4. With the bypass still in the diagnostic mode (Fig. 3 on page 4), there should be a slow flow to the drain.
5. Press button in sequence until display returns to “TIME.” Place bypass valve in the normal operating mode (Fig. 1 on page 4) by opening the outlet bypass handle.
6. CONDITIONING OF MEDIA: To flush any remaining debris and air from the system again: 1. Turn on a cold water faucet wide open, preferably at a laundry sink or bathtub without an aerator. 2. Wait two to three minutes or until water runs clear, then turn water off. 3. Turn on hot water and check for air, then turn water off after air is discharged.
7. Place unit into regeneration and allow to complete a full cycle. Upon completion, unit will deliver treated water.

OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE

The air sulfur and air iron filter systems look and function much like any backwashing whole house filter; however, unlike these conventional filters, they use air as a regenerant. This atmospheric air (containing oxygen) helps convert iron or hydrogen sulfide into particles. These filters capture the particles of iron or hydrogen sulfide gas within the filter media. Your dealer has recommended the proper media depending on your local water conditions. In some cases where an acidic water condition (low pH) is present, the media may need to be periodically replenished if using this filter to raise the pH to an acceptable level. Consult dealer for this service. The system is pre-factory set to regenerate every (3) three days at midnight. The frequency and start time of backwash/regeneration is adjustable to meet local operating conditions and contaminant levels. Total backwash and recharge time may vary between one half hour to one hour and fifteen minutes depending on the unit configuration

1 . GENERAL OPERATION: When the system is operating, one of six displays may be shown and will alternate with the installing dealer’s name and phone number for future service. Pressing NEXT will alternate between the displays.

1. Time of Day Screen: Displays the current time of day, the day of the week, and flow rate. 2. Flow Rate Screen: Displays the current treated water flow rate through the system in Gallons Per Minute. 3. Vacation Mode Screen: Allows the system to be “shut down” when there will be no water usage for an extended period of time. 4. Capacity Remaining Screen: Displays the amount of gallons of treated water remaining until the system triggers a regeneration. 5. Days to a Regen Screen: Displays the number of days until the system triggers a regeneration. Based on the days override value. 6. Dealer Name Screen: Displays dealer specific name and phone number. This scrolling display will only appear if set by the dealer.

If the system has called for a regeneration that will occur at the preset time of regeneration, the words “REGEN TODAY” will appear on the display. If a water meter is installed, “GPM” flashes on the display when water is being treated, indicating gallons per minute flowing through the system.

2 . VACATION MODE: This feature may be used to “shut down”the system for a period of time by preventing the unit from regenerating. The
manufacturer has factory set “OFF” as the default. Turn feature “OFF” or “ON” using the + or ­ buttons. When turned “ON”, the unit will remain
in Vacation Mode until it is exited. There are two ways that a unit can exit Vacation Mode:

Manually: The user may manually exit Vacation Mode by changing the setting from “ON” to “OFF”. Once switched off, a delayed regeneration will queue for that night. Vacation mode may also be manually exited by holding the REGEN button to force an immediate regeneration.
Automatically: The unit will automatically exit Vacation Mode once water usage has resumed. After fifty gallons of water is used, the unit will set to resume normal operation and a delayed regeneration will queue for that night.
NOTE: In some instances, if a regeneration has been queued and the unit is taken out of Vacation Mode (manually or automatically), the unit will trigger an immediate regeneration instead of a delayed regeneration. For example, if the unit’s maximum Days Between Regeneration is reached while the unit is in Vacation Mode, an immediate regeneration will trigger as soon as the unit is taken out of Vacation Mode.

CAUTION: Depending on the severity of water conditions and the length of no water usage, it may not be recommended to use this feature. Please contact dealer or manufacturer for more information.

3 . REGENERATION MODE: Typically, a system is set to regenerate at a time of no water usage. If there is a demand for water when the system is regenerating, untreated water will be delivered. When the system begins to regenerate, the display will include information about the step of the regeneration process and the time remaining for that step to be completed. The system runs through the steps automatically and will reset itself to provide treated water when the regeneration has been completed.

4 . MANUAL REGENERATION: Sometimes there may be a need to regenerate a unit before the control valve calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated.
· To initiate a manual regeneration at the next preset regeneration time, press and release the REGEN button. The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash on the display to indicate that the system will regenerate at the scheduled regeneration time (see the Programming Procedures section). If you pressed the REGEN button in error, pressing and releasing the button again will cancel the command.
· To initiate a manual regeneration immediately, press and hold the REGEN button for three seconds. The system will begin to regenerate immediately. This command cannot be canceled.

REGEN TODAY and TIME OF DAY will flash alternately if a regeneration is expected tonight.

Once a manual regeneration is initiated, the unit will enter the first regeneration cycle position. Once the unit advances to its first position and subsequent positions thereafter, (see Start Up Instructions for regeneration sequence) the water filter will deliver water, but it will be untreated.

5 . POWER LOSS AND BATTERY REPLACEMENT: If an extended power outage occurs, the control valve will retain the time of day settings until the board’s battery is depleted. Once the battery is depleted, the display will appear dark and absent of any information. If this occurs, following these steps will determine if the problem is a low battery or a board failure.

To determine if the battery is depleted: 1. Remove valve cover. Disconnect power from PC Board at the four pin connector at the bottom of the board.

2. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize. Remove battery with a non- conductive/nonmetallic material. Reference the Parts Breakdown section of this manual for location.

3. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize.

4. With the battery out, re-connect the power supply to the board. The board’s display should begin to show information.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

This indicates that the board is operating correctly. If the display does not work, call installing dealer for service.

5. To replace with new battery, unplug transformer from outlet. Install a 3 volt Lithium Coin Cell type 2032 battery, available at most stores. Plug unit back into outlet.

It is important to replace the battery with the valve unplugged to avoid causing a short and potentially ruining the board.

6. Reset the time of day (see programming procedures) and initiate regeneration (see operating displays and maintenance).

If these procedures do not remedy the problem, please consult the installing dealer for service.

6 . AUDIBLE ALARM: This control valve is equipped with an audible alarm and visual alarm. This alarm is set by the installing dealer and is used to warn the owner of possible valve errors or other issues.

To turn off alarm: If the audible alarm sounds, press any button on the face of the control valve to turn off and call the dealer for service.

7 . ERROR MESSAGE: If the word “ERROR” appears and flashes alternately with the dealer name and phone

8 . OZONE GENERATOR AND MAINTENANCE (OPTIONAL FEATURE): In severe cases where nuisance bacteria* conditions exist, the dealer may have installed an ozone generator (Part # 100349795, OZ1-A). While these bacteria are harmless to human health, they can produce a slime and occasionally a taste and odor problem that can be a “nuisance”. The ozone generator produces a controlled amount of ozone which is introduced to the tank during the regeneration cycle. This ozone will reduce the slime build up that can occur within the system and also reduce the associated taste and odors.

OZONE GENERATOR

The ozone generator is a serviceable item. For optimal performance, yearly replacement of the ozone check valve and injector is necessary. Over time, ozone generator cells become clogged with debris, lose their capability, and require replacement. When an ozone generator fails due to the need of cell replacement, it will trigger an alarm in the system. A “Service Ozone” indicator will appear on the screen of the valve controller which signals that a cell needs replacement or a potentiometer adjustment.

SERVI CE OZONE
SERVICE OZONE SCREEN

This maintenance should be performed by the servicing dealer. Contact dealer for more information.

*Nuisance bacteria refers to iron and sulfate reducing bacteria which is harmless to human health, however can cause slime, and taste and odor issues.

REPLACEMENT MINERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACID NEUTRALIZERS

Acid Neutralizers raise the pH of mildly acidic water. The raising of pH utilizes a sacrificial mineral that will need replenishment every 6 to 12 months. Typically the media should not be below the halfway point in the tank. In order to check the mineral height and before adding mineral to the system, please follow these instructions.

For Automatic Backwash Filters With Dome Hole 1. Check the media height by shining a flashlight through the tank to see
the height of the mineral. If the level is not visible, the top fill plug will have to be removed (if available) to measure the height. The media tank should only be twothirds full (see diagram). Proceed to step 2.
2. To remove top fill plug, turn off the source of the water and open a conditioned water tap to relieve the water pressure on the system. Place unit into the bypass mode. Unscrew the top fill plug.
Caution: Never unscrew top fill plug unless pressure is fully released from system. Serious injury and/or flooding can occur.
3. Siphon out some water from the tank through the dome hole. This will allow room when adding the media.
4. Add the appropriate amount of replacement media through the dome hole (top fill plug). Make sure you add the correct amount and type of media (calcite or calcite/ corosex mix). If needed, siphon out more water as the media will displace the water inside the tank. Pay close attention to media level when filling (see diagram).
Do not overfill. The additional media added should not be higher than two- thirds of the tank height when measuring from the bottom (see diagram). Once the right height has been achieved, replace top fill plug. Grease “O” ring if necessary using only silicone grease. Do not use petroleum based grease such as Vaseline. Tighten appropriately. 5. Leaving controller in the bypass position, turn on water source and refer to the start-up instructions of the controller and complete the procedure.
6. Once start up is complete, please check the top fill plug for any leaking.

REPLACEMENT MINERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACID NEUTRALIZERS
For Acid Neutralizers With the 100245769 (CD1400) In/Out Head Without an Optional Fill Plug 1. Check the media height by shining a flashlight through the tank to see the height of the mineral. To more
clearly check the level of mineral and to fill the tank, the 100245769 (CD1400) In/Out head will need to be removed. 2. Before removing the head, turn off the water source, open a conditioned water tap to relieve the water pressure, and then place the unit into bypass mode (see Fig. 2 on page 4).
Caution: Never unscrew in/out head unless pressure is fully released from system. Serious injury and/or flooding can occur.
3. Unscrew the In/Out head from the tank, disconnecting it from the bypass. 4. Measure media height with ruler. 5. Add appropriate amount of media (calcite or calcite/corosex mix) to no higher than 2/3rds of the tank full.
It may be necessary to siphon out water from the tank as the media will displace it. Take caution to ensure that no media enters the distributor tube when filling. 6. Re-attach the In/Out Head onto the tank. Apply grease to the O-rings that seal the tank and the distributor. Only use silicone grease. Never use petroleum based grease such as Vaseline. 7. Re-attach the bypass to the controller. 8. With the controller in the bypass position, open the water source. 9. Open the bypass valve to the normal operating position (see page 4). Inspect valve for any leaks. 10. Open a conditioned water tap and flush until clear.
For Acid Neutralizers With the 100245758 (CD1220) In/Out Head With Fill Port

1. Check the media height by shining a flashlight through the tank to see the height of the mineral. To more
   clearly check the level of mineral and to fill the tank, the 100245758 (CD1220) In/Out head top plate will need to be removed. 2. Before removing the top plate turn off the water source, open a conditioned water tap to relieve the water pressure, and then place the unit into bypass mode (see Fig. 2 on page 4).
   Caution: Never unscrew in/out head unless pressure is fully released from system. Serious injury and/or flooding can occur.
   3. Unscrew the In/Out top plate head from the controller. Remove the top screen located in the controller. 4. Measure media height with ruler. 5. Add appropriate amount of media (calcite or calcite/corosex mix) to no higher than 2/3rds of the tank full
   through the in/out fill port. It may be necessary to siphon out water from the tank as the media will displace it. Take caution to ensure that no media enters the distributor tube when filling. 6. Replace the screen. Re-attach the In/Out top plate. Apply grease to the O-rings that seals the top plate to the head. Only use silicone grease. Never use petroleum based grease such as Vaseline. 7. With the controller in the bypass position, open the water source. 8. Open the bypass valve to the normal operating position (see page 4). Inspect valve for any leaks. 9. Open a conditioned water tap and flush until clear.

WaterCare® Water Filter

Limited Warranty

Congratulations. You have purchased one of the finest water treatment systems available. In the unlikely event of a problem due to defects in material and workmanship, Water-Right® proudly warrants our WaterCare water filters to the original owner, at original installation location, when installed in accordance with Water-Right specifications from the date of original installation as follows:

For the LIFETIME of the original owner: Media tank, except for damages due to freezing, high pressure (120 PSI and above), extreme temperature (100° F and above) or a vacuum on the system.

For a period of FIVE YEARS:

Complete valve.

For a period of ONE YEAR:

All other parts and components.

Any part found defective within the terms of this warranty will be repaired or replaced by the dealer at the manufacturer’s discretion. You pay only freight from our factory and local dealer charges. To obtain local warranty service, contact original dealer. If original dealer is unknown, contact Water-Right for authorized service dealer in your area. If no authorized dealer is located in your area, please ship defective part or component freight prepaid to:
Water-Right, Inc. 1900 Prospect Ct. Appleton, Wisconsin 54914
Water-Right, at its discretion, will repair or replace the part or component at its expense and return part freight collect.
The above provisions of the warranty are valid as long as the unit is connected in compliance with local plumbing codes and in an equivalent manner and condition of the original installation and is owned by the original owner.
This warranty does not cover expendable or misapplied medias, or damages due to accident, fire, flood, freezing, or any other Act of God. Water-Right is not responsible for damages due to change in water conditions, misapplication, misuse, neglect, vacuum, oxidizing agents, alteration, or lack of maintenance. No responsibility is assumed for loss of use of the unit, inconvenience, loss or damage to real or personal property or any incidental or consequential damages. Furthermore, we assume no liability and extend no warranties, express or implied, for the use of this product with a non-potable water source. To the extent permitted by law, Water-Right disclaims all implied warranties, including without limitation warranties of merchantability and fitness for particular purpose; to the extent required by law, any such implied warranties are limited in duration to the period specified above for the specified components.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
