12 Miracle Water Installation & Operation Manual
Installation
Step 1. Turn Off Water Supply
1. Close the main water supply valve, near the well pump or water meter.
2. Shut off the electric or fuel supply to the water heater.
3. Open all faucets to drain all water from the house pipes.
Step 2. Move the Unit into Place
Move the unit into installation position. Set it on a solid, smooth and level surface. If needed, place
the unit on a section of plywood, a minimum of 3/4” thick. Then, shim under the plywood to level
the unit, see Figure7.
CAUTION: DO NOT PLACE SHIMS DIRECTLY UNDER THE SALT STORAGE TANK. The
weight of the tank, when full of water and salt, may cause the tank to fracture at
the shim.
Visually check and remove any foreign materials from the valve inlet and outlet ports.
If not already done, put a light coating of silicone grease or Vaseline on the bypass valve o-rings.
Push the bypass valve into the softener valve as far as it will go. Snap the 2 large holding clips
into place, from the top down as shown in Figure 8.
CAUTION: Be sure the clips snap firmly into place so the bypass valve will not pull out.
