System Conguration for Standard Installations
For households on a municipal system, locate the water
main, which connects the household to the municipal supply
line. Usually this is near the water meter. For private pump/
pressure tank style systems, locate the outlet of the pressure
tank. The system must be installed downstream of the water
meter or pressure tank in order to provide treated water to the
whole household.
The system is installed directly in-line with the home supply,
following the water meter or pump and pressure tank.

NOTE: A dedicated line, diverted from the main water line,
may be installed upstream of the system for all exterior taps,
pool or hot tub makeup valves, and irrigation systems. This
arrangement will extend the life of the system membrane.

All sales, commissioning and maintenance personnel are
required to participate in a Homespring Certied Technician
training program to ensure that they have been trained to
maintain and diagnose the system. Since the primary usage
of the system is to remove bacteria, certain parasites, and
certain viruses from drinking water sources, this certication
program is important and mandatory for both safety and
liability reasons.
All eorts must be made to ensure that installations are
performed in a careful, sanitary manner for the safety of the
homeowner, home occupants, and technicians.
The following section outlines the installation procedures,
the tools required in the installation, and the commissioning
procedures.
NOTE: The images in this manual may appear slightly dierent
than the actual system or parts.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
severe injury, illness, death and/or property damage,
read and follow all instructions. Use only factory
supplied parts, where required.
System Installation Location with other Water
Treatment Devices
If other water processing devices are currently installed in the
home, the system should be located as shown in the diagram.

Figure 1
A water softener can be placed either before (upstream) or
after (downstream) the system. If the softener is downstream
of the system, it is recommended that a supply line of hard
water be plumbed to the kitchen so that ltered, mineralized
water can be utilized in food preparation and for human
consumption.
If a chlorinator is used to control bacterial and virus growth in
pipes, a stainless steel prelter may be installed in the system
instead of a carbon prelter.
