Installation Operation Maintenance Manual

FILOX WS ISS 1 \page 18

8.0 ROUTINE
MONITORING

The following recommendations are made to help the user of the filter
confirm that it is performing as required, and to give early warning of
possible problems. The operation of the filter is completely automatic,
and should not require adjustment.

Weekly

Check the treated water quality with a test kit.

Monthly

Check raw water quality, and record. Compare with original quality and
adjust frequency of backwash if required.

Six Monthly

Perform a chlorinated backwash to remove any organic build up on the
media. Check filter media depth against original level.

Annually

Inspect and clean/replace as necessary the piston and the internal
seals. A competent engineer familiar with Clack valves should perform
this.
