This water
softener works on 28V DC electrical
power,
supplied
by a direct
plug-in
power supply (included).
Be sure to use the included power supply and plug it into
a nominal
120% 60 Hz household
outlet that is in a
dry location
only, grounded
and properly
protected
by
an overcurrent
device
such as a circuit
breaker
or fuse.
This water
softener
has a non-metallic
valve system.
Installing
it on metal
plumbing
will break electrical
continuity,
which may interrupt
grounding
for the
home.
You must restore electrical
continuity
in your
metal
plumbing
system (See Page 8).
