2 SUPERIOR CHEMICAL REMOVAL FILTER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE ● ONTARIO ● CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM INTRODUCTION The Pre-Treatment Chemical Removal system removes the Chlorine and other volatile chemicals. This manual must be read prior to installation and service of Pre-Treatment Chemical Removal Filter. INSTALLATION Water Test Results General Installation and Service Warnings • The filter is designed so that it can be installed easily with minor plumbing changes at point of entry on previous plumbing. • The piping must be clamped properly and the weight of the plumbing must not be on the filter. • Do not use any kind of lubricant including silicone. A silicone based lubricant can be only used on black O-Rings but not necessary. • Do not use pipe dope or other sealant on plastic nuts. • The nuts can be fastened and unfastened by hand or the plastic service wrench. Do not use pipe wrench to tighten the caps and nuts. • Do not block access to main shut off, water meter and other equipment. Site Requirements • Water Pressure: - 30-100 psi • Water Temperature: - 40-110°F (4.4-43°C) • The tank should be installed on firm level surface Parameter Water Sample Results Hardness Iron pH Chlorine Manganese Sulphur Phosphates Total Dissolved Solids

Inlet is labelled on tank head as downflow inlet. Water flows downwards through the filter bed. BYPASS OPERATION The inlet and outlet handles point towards the center of bypass valve. The system is isolated from the water pressure in the plumbing system. Untreated water is supplied to the house in this position.
8 SUPERIOR CHEMICAL REMOVAL FILTER INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE BARRIE ● ONTARIO ● CANADA 705.733.8900 WWW.EXCALIBURWATER.COM START UP INSTRUCTIONS 1. Turn off the cold main water supply and inlet to hot water tank to the home and open inside cold faucets to relieve any pressure within the plumbing system. 2. Place the system in the desired location. Make sure that the location is level and sturdy enough to support the weight. 3. Place the bypass valve in the up-flow service position. 4. Connect the cold water supply to the inlet of the Soft-tec system. NOTE: The Soft-tec system operates in the UP-flowmode which is opposite of a conventional softener, see piping schematic in manual. 5. Place a bucket under the outlet port or run a line from the outlet port to a drain location. 6. Slowly turn the water back on to the house feeding the Soft-tec system up-flow inlet. Allow the tank to fill with water. Close the supply valve when a steady stream of water comes out of the outlet port. 7. Close the inside faucets. 8. Connect the outlet of the Soft-tec system to the cold-water supply to the house. 9. Slowly open the supply valve to the Soft-tec system. 10. Open the closest cold water faucet downstream from the Soft-tec system to relieve any air from the plumbing system and run until water is clear. 11. Open inlet feed water supply to hot water tank. 12. Open other cold water faucets in the house to release any excess air and run until water is clear. 13. The filter system is now ready for standard water usage providing filtered water to every tap.
