Installation Steps and Start-Up Procedures, Cont.

G. For most installations, install the appliance after the pressure tank and any water filter

appliance or water meter and before the water heater unless otherwise recommended.

When installing a carbon filter for well water, place the filter after any water conditioning

appliance unless otherwise recommended. Contact the HelpLine for further assistance in

determining the proper installation sequence.

Water Heaters: If less than 10 feet (3.0 m) of pipe connects the water treatment

appliance(s) to the water heater, install a check valve between the water treatment

appliance and the water heater as close to the water heater as possible. Ensure that the

water heater has an adequately rated temperature and pressure safety relief valve.

H. For outside installations, the appliance should be enclosed so it is protected from the

weather.

a report on your water’s quality.

Note: See Optional Plumbing Procedures for

information on copper fittings and joining plastic pipe.

A. Lift and remove the cabinet cover.

B. Install Qest fittings. Qest connection fittings are

provided with your appliance. Qest fittings provide a

convenient, easy-to-use three-piece assembly for

3/4-inch copper plumbing or 3/4-inch CTS CPVC

plastic tubing.

Ensure that the three components (1: collar, 2: metal

retaining ring, and 3: nylon sleeve) are correctly

installed in sequence on the pipe. (See Figure 2.)

Note: Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty with

Qest fittings. They are not necessary.

with all state and local, building, plumbing, and

electrical codes. (See Figure 3.) Do NOT overtighten

the connections on the plastic threads.

water flows in the proper direction.
