WHAT PRODUCTS CAN I USE WITH THE SYSTEM?
Any liquid or water soluble powder may be used in the system. Water soluble powders do not need to
be dissolved to work in the system. The
EZ-FLO
process dissolves, mixes, and measures for you. If
your product is clear you must add food coloring or dye so the product will be visible in the clear output
tube.
HOW DO I KNOW WHEN THE FERTILIZER IS GONE?
When the system is operating (water flowing) the clear tube will fill with the color of your fertilizer. When
the systems is operating and the tube is running clear, the system is out of fertilizer.
MY FERTILIZER IS GONE BUT THE TANK IS FULL OF WATER
The
EZ-FLO
system will always be full of fluid since it replaces the product with fresh water utilizing a
patented process to layer the incoming water over the heavier fertilizer solution. This process is similar
to oil on water or whipped cream on gelatin.
HOW DO I KNOW THE SYSTEM IS WORKING?
When water is flowing through your garden hose or drip system, the color from the fertilizer will
completely fill the clear tube. The color depends on the fertilizer or dye color. The color in the tube may
be lighter or darker depending on how much fertilizer was put into the tank and/or the injection setting
selected on the cap. If you have a full tank of fertilizer and do not see color in the clear tube, refer to the
Installation
and
Flow Requirements
sections of this guide.
MY SYSTEM IS RUNNING BUT THE LINE IS STILL CLEAR
•
First check that your system has water flowing and is not just under pressure. The tube will only
show color when the water is flowing.
•
Make sure the tank was filled with the proper amount of fertilizer and dye was added if the fertilizer
did not contain a dye. Also, confirm all air was removed from the tank by topping off with water.
•
Check that the included hose bib injection fitting is installed according to the
Installation
section.
You may need to rearrange your filter, pressure regulator, and/or timer so our injector fitting is last.
•
Check the
Flow Requirements
section to determine if you need a
Flo Disc
or that the correct
Flo
Disc
was selected.
•
If installed in a sprinkler line adjust the ball valve connector (CBV) according to the instructions
provided with the connector. If the system was installed in a sprinkler line and a coupling ball valve
(CBV) connection was not used, one must be installed for proper function.
MY SYSTEM IS FEEDING TOO FAST
Check that you have selected the appropriate feed setting. Also, if you used a Flo Disc during
installation, make sure the proper disc was selected. Any Flo-Disc will speed up the injection rate of the
system.
If using a coupling ball valve connection (CBV) for irrigation pipe, make sure the valve is properly
calibrated. Opening the valve will slow the feed rate for your system.
