Water Softener Machine And Its Installation

By Essie Osborn


Water is one of the things that we really can not live without. We use this at almost everything. From hygiene to food and drinks, water is just everywhere. If you have observed, there are already different types of it. There is what we call as distilled, mineral, natural and a lot more. Another one that is not so popular yet is the process called softening. Water softener Rosemount is one of those who are permitted to install machines in the homes of those who are interested. You may actually do it by yourself as well.

Although there are agencies who offer this service, you can also do it on your own. You may install a softener at home so you can have save more. Here are the steps to be able to successfully have it at the comfort of your home.

Make a checklist before going to the supermarket to canvass for the stuff you need. There are tools that you might already have at home. Check each thing that is on your list and see if there are some things that you can get or recycle. Once you are already in the place to buy it, check the things that you already got so there will be no confusion as you go along.

Make sure to turn off the faucet inside the house and the power for the hot water heater. Then, drain the lines by turning on the faucets for a few minutes before you install the softener. Then place your conditioner in a safe and dry level area. You will be needing a bigger space since you will have 2 tanks that need to be set up side by side.

Check the length of the cold liquid and bypass ports by measuring it using a tape measure. Using the measurement that you got, cut a copper tubing then solder it to the ends. Make sure that the measuring and soldering are done the right way or else you will have to do it again.

When you purchase all the things needed, there should be a manual with the list of steps and procedures to successfully install your softener. Properly read and understand every bullet so you can do everything right. After, recheck all the things that you have bought. In case there is a missing piece, directly go back to the store and ask for it. If you do not do so, you will not be able to finish everything immediately.

Take out your tube for this next procedure. Put it beside your tank. There will be another tube needed to serve as the drainage. Build a draining system for this project.

Install the bypass valve on the head valve of the conditioner. Use a screwdriver to adjust the screws unto the stainless steel clamps towards the seat valve. This is the time when you need to connect the copper tubing that you have measured. It is needed to deliver the water to the bypass valve. Then, attach it to the lines.

Now turn it on and see if you were able to do an excellent job. If there is anything wrong, figure it out as soon as possible. Delaying it may cause the whole machine to malfunction.
