I GUIDES TO
_) SOLUTION INJECTION BETWEEN THE WELL PUMP AND PRESSURE TANK
1. Turn off the electrical power to the well pump
and turn off the gas or electric supply to the water
heater,
2. Open a faucet for a few seconds to bleed off
water pressure, then close
11. In the same way as in step 9, connect the other
end of the tubing to the injection fitting.
12. Turn on the electrical power to the well pump
and open the main water supply valve. Oper
faucets to let air out of the water system, then close
3o Close the shut-off valve on the main supply pipe
close to the pressure tank
NOTE: If you have a shut-off valve between the
pressure tank inlet and the place you will install the
injection point, you do not have to drain water from
the tank Otherwise, drain all water from the tank.
13. Check your plumbing work for leaks.
14. Turn on the gas or electric supply to the water
heater and relight the pilot.
SEE PAGE 11 TO MAKE THE NEEDED ELEC-
TRICAL CONNECTIONS.
4. Open the drain valve on the well pump, if it has
one
5. Between the well pump and pressure tank, install
ateefittingasshown in FIG 6 INSTALLTHETEE
AS SHOWN, SO THE INJECTION FITTING GOES
WITH THE FLOW OF WATER NOT AGAINST IT
6. Use a reducer bushing as shown, to reduce the tee
to 1/4 in_ pipe thread. Use teflon tape or pipe dope on
the threads
7. Put teflon tape or pipe dope on the threads of the
injection fitting and turn it into the reducer bushing
until tight. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN DO NOT
REMOVE THE PLASTIC SLEEVE FROM THE TIP
OF THE INJECTION FITTING IT IS A WORKING

8. Set the solution dispensing system in the place
you chose to locate it
9. Measure for the length of tubing needed to run
from the solution pump discharge fitting, to the
injection fitting. The tubing is stiff, so allow enough
length for longer bends. Cut both ends of the
tubing square with a sharp knife.
10. Remove the nut from the discharge valve (FIG.
6) on the solution pump. Slide the nut over lendof
the tubing. Push the tubing onto the tip of the
discharge valve as far as it will go_ Then slide the
holding nut onto the valve and tighten it with your
fingers.
