FREEZE PROTECTION
WINTERIZING YOUR UNIT
If the waste pump is exposed to freezing weather conditions, the water inside of the pump may
freeze, resulting in SERIOUS DAMAGE to the impeller. Water freezes at 32° F and 0° C. The following is
recommended to prevent this from occurring during the cold weather season:
1.
If possible, store the unit in a heated building when not in use.
2.
To winterize the unit, loosen the thumb screws from the front plate of the automatic waste
pump until the plate can pull away from the pump allowing the remaining water to drain out.
3.
Drain the water into a container and dispose of the water into an approved waste water source.
4.
Drain the pump between jobs in freezing weather conditions to prevent damaging the waste
pump impeller.
