AQUASURE SERENE SALT-FREE LITE SERIES 4

III. Installation Safety Guide
· Handle with care when moving the water filtration system. Do not turn upside down, drop, drag, or set on areas with sharp protrusions.
· All of our media tanks have level adjusting tank bases. These tanks are designed to work with a “floating” base. This allows the tank to be leveled on any surface. Some applications may not have a level surface on which to place the tank. The floating base allows the tank to be leveled within the base and ensures proper operation. Sometimes the based can shift during shipping. It can be adjusted back by lifting the tank up no higher than 3″ off the base , and letting it drop to help level the base.

INSTALLING THE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT! Locate and test the main water supply valve to the housing before installing the system. If the main water supply valve fails to shut off the water completely during the test, we recommend contacting your local plumber to fix the valve before begin installing the system.
WARNING! If this system is install 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. As a result, any errant electricity from improperly grounded appliances or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground through a contiguous metal system. Some older homes have been built in accordance with out-dated building codes, which actually encouraged the grounding of electrical appliances through plumbing. A grounded “jumper wire” bridging the equipment and reestablishing the contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing system must be installed prior to your system use.
Note: Although not required, we highly recommend installing a bypass before the system install to help ensure there’s no downtime for water usage during repairs or replacement of systems and filters.

IMPORTANT! For maximum effectiveness and to lengthen the system life, the pre- filter system should always be placed before the treatment system.
STEP 1. Checking the Direction of Water Flow
1. Inspect your water flow and determine if water is flowing from left to right or right to left.
2. If needed, reassemble the mounting bracket for the whole-house pre-filter if the direction is opposite of where the mounting bracket is facing.
3. Make sure the water flow will first be entering into the port opening indicated with an “IN” or directional arrow pointing inward and exits from the opening indicated with an “OUT” or directional arrow pointing outward.
4. Salt-Free System valve requires an up-flow setup. Follow Step 7 of the installation for the correct flow connection.

STEP 2. Shutting Off the Main Water Supply Valve
1. Locate the main water supply valve of the house and turn it off completely.
2. Test to see if the water is completely shut off by turning on the faucet in the cold water position. If the cold water cannot be shut off, please contact your local plumber to fix the valve before begin installing the system.

STEP 3. Mounting the Pre-Filter 1. Position the system on the wall at the desired mounting location with minimum of six (6) inches of ground clearance from the floor to the base of the system. 2. Using a pen or pencil and mark the mounting hole on the back of the bracket onto the wall. 3. Note: Please make sure the bracket mount is leveled using a leveling tool to ensure evenly distributed stress on the bracket. Make sure the mounting point is positioned on a stud to properly secure the bracket. 4. Mount the system onto the wall using the provided lag bolts and washers.
WARNING! Pre-filters must be wall mounted to prevent stress on the plumbing.
STEP 4. Attaching the Water Supply Pipe to the Pre-Filter
1. Wrap the 1″ male threaded fittings that will be used to connect the plumbing to the pre-filter with five (5) to six (6) wraps of Teflon tape.
2. Attach the 1″ male threaded fitting from the incoming water supply plumbing to the IN port and OUT port of the pre-filter system.
3. Note: Use the 1″ to 3/4″ inch male adapter for 3/4″ plumbing.
AQUASURE SERENE SALT-FREE LITE SERIES 8

STEP 5. Installing the Pre-Filter Cartridge
1. Unwrap the filter cartridge and place it inside the housing. Make sure the filter is centered on the stand pipe located inside the housing at the base.
2. Screw on the housing with the filter inside and screw onto the corresponding head by turning it counterclockwise using the supplied housing wrench.
3. Note: Make sure the o-ring is inside the housing and do not over-tighten the housing.

STEP 6. Connecting the Plumbing onto the Valve
1. Follow the Diagram below and the arrow sticker on the head for a properly connected “upflow” setup required for the system to work correctly.
2. Wrap the 1″ male threaded fittings that will be used to connect the plumbing with five (5) to six (6) wraps of Teflon tape.
3. Connect the plumbing by threading in the connection clockwise. Note: If the water flow is reversed, damage to the system can occur.

STEP 7. System Startup WARNING! Immediately shut off the main water supply valve if there are leaks. Check the leak area and see if there’s a loose connection or if more Teflon tape is needed to prevent leaks from happening.

1. If bypass is installed, place the Salt-free system valve into bypass mode. If no bypass is installed you will need to turn off the water main to your home. 2. Find the nearest water faucet and remove the aerator or grid mesh on the faucet. Turn on the faucet before turning on the main water line to allow water to flow through. 3. Turn on the water from the main water supply and let it run for 10 minutes to release any trapped air bubbles or carbon media if a carbon filter is installed. 4. Check for Leaks! 5. After 10 mins, turn off the water from the nearest water faucet and reinstall the aerator or grid mesh back onto the faucet.
   CONGRATULATIONS!
   Your system is ready to use. Please document the filter installation time and replace the filter in the suggested replacement time.
