INSTALL GROUNDING WIRE
AND CLAMPS
IMPORTANT: A copper or galvanized house cold
water pipe is often used to ground electrical outlets
in the home. Grounding protects you from
electrical shock. The water softener may have
broken this ground path. To restore connection,
install UL approved grounding hardware or 6-gauge
copper wire across the softener valve, tightly
clamped, using UL approved grounding clamps at
both ends as shown. Zinc clamps should not be
used on copper plumbing. Grounding hardware is
not provided with the unit. It may be purchased
separately from your local hardware store.
NOTE: Clean copper pipe and ends of wire with
emery paper. Bare wire is recommended. If insulated
wire is used, it should be stripped 3/4" at each end
before cleaning with emery paper.
