Loading the Media Pak
Place the distributor tube back down the center of the tank. NOTE: the top of this tube
should be plugged with a rag or cork to prevent media from entering. Pour the bag of
coarse gravel into the tank, and then pour the bag of fine gravel into the tank.
It is important that the distributor tube is not moved or pulled out as it is not possible to put
it down to the bottom of the tank once gravel or media are in the tank.
Finally pour the larger bag(s) of media into the tank in the following order:
Carbon Filters
1. Carbon
Once this is done, the rag or cork should be removed from the distributor tube. Clean off
the top of the tank. Finally place the control valve on the tank and on to the distributor
tube. Tighten the control valve on to the tank. Connect or reconnect the inlet and outlet and
drain. The control valve should be in the backwash position. Slowly open the inlet valve wa-
ter supply and slowly fill the filter tank until water appears at the open drain line. Return the
control to the service position and shut the inlet off for approximately one hour to allow the
media to soak in the water.
After one hour, turn inlet water on slowly and place the control into the backwash position
and plug the unit’s electrical cord into a constant power source. Let the unit continue
through its regeneration cycle automatically. The regeneration is necessary so all media
fines are backwashed down the drain to ensure clean filtered water.
