Congratulations on

Use and Care
The

designed to handle routine, domestic sewage.
Solid waste materials should be thrown in the
trash. While your station is capable of accepting

regulatory agencies advise that the following
items should not be introduced into any sewer
either directly or through a kitchen waste
disposal:
• Glass
• Metal
• Diapers
• Socks, rags or cloth
• Plastic objects (e.g., toys, utensils, etc.)
• Sanitary napkins or tampons
In addition you must
NEVER
introduce into any
sewer:

• Lubricating Oil and/or Grease
• Strong Chemicals
• Gasoline
General Information
Your home wastewater disposal service is part of
a low pressure sewer system. The key element
in this system is the Barnes
Ultra
GRIND grinder
pump station. The basin collects all wastewater
from the house. The solids in the sewage are
then ground to a small size suitable for pumping
in the slurry.
The grinder pump
generates sufficient
pressure to pump this slurry from your home to
the wastewater plant.
Power Failure
Your grinder pump cannot dispose of
wastewater or provide an alarm signal without
electrical power. If electrical power service is
interrupted, keep water usage to a minimum.
Warranty
Your grinder pump is furnished with a warranty
against defects in material or workmanship. A
properly completed
Start-Up/Warranty Registration form must be
on file at the Barnes factory in order to activate
your warranty. In addition your pump must be
installed in accordance with the installation
instructions.
If you have a claim under the provisions
of the warranty, contact your local Barnes
Distributor.
When contacting your representative for service,
please include your station serial number,
pump model number, and pump serial number.
