Drain Line Connection
Refer to Figure 12 and Table 2, under the applicable tank size for drain line length and height limitations.
• Remove 1/2” pipe clamp from end of drain elbow.
• Route a length of 1/2” drain line from the drain elbow to the drain.
• Fasten the drain line to the elbow with the clamp.
• Secure the drain line to the drain to prevent its movement during regeneration. A loop in the end of the tube will keep it filled
with water and will reduce splashing at the beginning of each regeneration.

Electrical Connections
The power cord needs to be connected to the plug-in transformer,
wire orientation is not critical. Figure 15 shows the cord
attachment to the transformer.
Figure 15
Note: Waste connections or drain outlets shall be designed and constructed to provide for connection to the sanitary waste
system through an air gap of 2 pipe diameters or 1 inch, whichever is larger.
Note: Observe all plumbing codes. Most codes require an anti-siphon device or air gap at the discharge point. The system and
installation must comply with state and local laws and regulations.
