GE AvantaPure Operation Manual page 5

• Keep the media tank in the upright position. Do not
turn upside down or drop. Turning the tank upside
down will cause media to enter the valve.
• Operating ambient temperature is between 35F (1C)
and 120F (49C).
• Operating water temperature is between 35F (1C)
and 100F (38C).
• Working water pressure range is 20 to 125 psi (1.38 to
8.6 bar). In Canada the acceptable working water
pressure range is 20 to 100 psi (1.38 to 6.89 bar).
• Use only regenerant salts designed for water
softening. Do not use ice melting, block, or rock salts.
• Follow state and local codes for water testing. Do not
use water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality.
• When filling media tank, do not open water valve
completely. Fill tank slowly to prevent media from
exiting the tank.
• When installing the water connection (bypass or
manifold) connect to the plumbing system first. Allow
heated parts to cool and cemented parts to set
before installing any plastic parts. Do not get primer
or solvent on O-rings, nuts, or the valve.
WARNING: The valve and tank
components of this unit have been
assembled and tightened to the proper
factory torque specifications. Over
tightening may result in improper valve,
probe and tank alignment and may damage
the tank O-ring (PN 1010154).
WARNING: Excessive Weight Hazard.
Use two or more people to move and install
the conditioner. Failure to do so can result in
injury (including back injury).
