2. Do all necessary plumbing (inlet to inlet, outlet to outlet and

inlet and outlet pipe whenever the metallic continuity of
a water distribution piping system is interrupted. Install
jumper ground wire on metal pipes.

7. A 1/2” (inside diameter) gravity drain line should be connected
to the overow elbow on the side of the brine tank and run to
a drain below the level of the elbow. This overow drainage
system provides protection from water damage in the event
of a brine shut-off malfunction. Tubing is not provided to
do this.
