How To Install A Water Softener

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install the system once you buy water softener. But first, you’ll need to have the following to ensure the job goes smoothly:

• Tape measure
• Teflon tape
• Pipe cutters
• Copper fittings
• Drain tubing
• Pipe wrench
• Solder and torch
• Compression fittings
• Flexible tubing
• PVC solvent
• Gate valve
• Union fittings
• Slip joint pliers
• Different adaptors and Tees

Installation Steps

Turn Off The Water Supply

This will prevent a major leak in your home

Switch Off Electric Water Heater

Make sure you turn this off too to protect it against possible damage

Drain Water In Involved Lines

Open all the nearby outlets, including faucets, to let the remaining water run out.

Find A Location For The Softener

If it’s a whole-house unit, you want to place it as close to the main water entry point as possible and before the water line that leads to your water heater.

Place The Softener

Put the softener in a level position.

Cut The Main Supply Line

Using the pipe cutter, cut the main line. You can place a bucket under the cutting point to catch any water that spills out of the pipe.

Install Elbow Fitting

The fitting allows you to feed the softener, while a bypass valve enables you to feed water around the system. With the elbow fitting in place, you’ll be able to run two lines to the outlet and inlet ports of the valve.

Connect Inlet and Outlet Ports

Connect the softener's outlet and inlet port to the outgoing and incoming water. Double-check if this is correct to ensure your softener provides your home with soft water. You can use a flexible or hard tubing for the pipe connections.

Connect Drainpipe

This is connected to the softener. Use clamps to keep the pipe in place and direct it to the drain. Check that the drainpipe is no less than 2 inches from the drain to prevent salt water from going back into the softener.

Install Brine Line

During regeneration, the brine line enables brine to flow into the resin tank. At this point, your water system will be ready to use. However, confirm that all the connections are secure and pipes go the right places.

Pour Salt

Add salt to the brine tank. For the optimal level and salt type, read the manual.

Turn on Water Supply

Slowly turn on the water supply to prevent sudden pressure from damaging your plumbing. But before that, open a nearby cold water tap. Check for any leaks. Wait for a couple of minutes so that air flushes out.

Configure System

Use the manual to set a couple of things, including how often you want the system to regenerate.
