SAFETY GUIDES

Follow the installation instructions carefully. Failure to install the filter properly

voids the warranty.

Before you begin installation, read this entire manual. Then obtain all the materials and tools you will need to make the

installation.

Check local plumbing and electrical codes.

The installation must conform to them.

NOTE:

Codes in the state of Massachusetts require installation by a licensed plumber. For installation, use plumbing

code 248---CMR of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Use only lead--free solder and flux

for all sweat-solder connections as required by state and federal codes.

Use care when handling the filter. Do not turn upside down, drop, or set on sharp protrusions.
Do not locate the filter where freezing temperatures occur. Do not attempt to filter water over 120

F.

Freezing, or hot

water damage voids the warranty.

Avoid installing in direct sunlight. Excessive sun heat may cause distortion or other damage to non---metallic parts.
The filter requires a

minimum water flow of 5 gallons per minute

at the inlet for

backwash

.

Recommended maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 80 psi.

Use a pressure reducing valve if necessary. Be

sure the addition of a pressure reducing valve will not reduce the flow to less than the 5 gpm needed for backwash.

This filter controller works on 24 Volt, 60 Hz electrical power only.

Be sure to use the included transformer, and

plug it into a nominal 120V, 60 cycle household outlet that is grounded and properly protected by an over---current de-

vice such as circuit breaker or fuse. The relay box for the air pump must be plugged into a separate 120V grounded

household outlet.
This system is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the system.

European Directive 2002/96/EC requires all electrical and electronic equipment to be disposed of according to

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) requirements. This directive or similar laws are in place na-

tionally and can vary from region to region. Please refer to your state and local laws for proper disposal of this

equipment.
