Culligan MEDALLIST SERIES Installation And Operation Instructions With Parts List

For backwash flow control conversion, refer to Figure 10 and
instructions listed below.
• Remove the u-clip of the drain elbow assembly and pull the drain
elbow straight off.
• Remove the back wash flow control located behind the elbow. Put
the correct restrictor in its place.
• Insert the flow control washer with the molded numbers facing
toward the valve body. Refer to Table 1. For the 6.0 gpm flow
control, insert the flow control with the molded “5.5” facing away
from the valve body. Insert the plastic flow control spacer after
the 7 gpm flow control washer on the 10” Filtr-Cleer. See Figure

• Replace the drain elbow assembly and secure it with the u-clip.
Plumbing Connections - 3/4” Controls
Shipped with each softener is a Culligan
®
bypass valve, which is used to connect the softener to the plumbing system. The
bypass allows the softener to be isolated from the water service line if service is necessary while still providing water to the home.
The bypass valve can be directly plumbed into the system, or can be connected with the following optional sweat connection kits:
Part No. Description
01019783 3/4” Sweat copper adapter kit
01019782 3/4” Elbow sweat copper adapter kit
Bypass Valve Installation - 3/4” Controls
The bypass valve connects directly to the backplate of the valve with a
pair of screws (Figure 11). To facilitate this connection, remove the plate
by pulling up on the u-clip on the back of the valve. Lubricate all o-rings
with silicon lubricant.
Sweat Adapter Installation
The sweat adapters use a snap ring to hold them to the backplate of the
control valve. The back plate will need to be removed from the valve for
this connection. A pair of snap ring pliers, PN 00-5916-09, are needed
for this connection.
