Plan Your Installation
Suggested Slab Foundation Installation
Plug the softener transformer
into an inside, 120 volt 60Hz
electrical outlet. If an outside
outlet is used, be sure it has
approved weather protection.
Run drain tubing to laundry tub or
p-trap inside home, if possible.
Otherwise, run to a dry well.

CROSS-OVER
* In what direction does the water flow?
Be sure to plan “IN” and “OUT” piping so water
flow is to the softener valve inlet. Plan a
crossover if flow is from left to right.
DRAW IN YOUR PIPES
AND FITTINGS
Draw the plans for your “IN” and “OUT”
piping here. Include all pipe, fittings and
accessories you will use.
Make a list of all materials you will need
and buy them before you begin to install
the water softener.
