Controller Functions
A Homespring™ Authorized Technician must perform all
service and maintenance. As part of the annual
maintenance, the Homespring™ Authorized Technician
will perform an Integrity Test to check the condition of the
System membrane and perform a cleaning procedure to
clean the System membrane. This annual test and
cleaning is
mandatory as part of the 5-year limited
prorated membrane warranty.
If the Homespring™ Authorized Technician determines
that the System has a high degree of debris and
contaminants, causing an abnormally high reduction in
System flowrate, the number of maintenance visits per
year may be increased to ensure that the System
functions within its acceptable operational parameters
and to ensure that the limited warranty remains in effect.
Maintenance Schedule
The following maintenance tasks must be performed
every 12 months unless specified otherwise. Refer to
H. REPLACEMENT PART LIST AND PROCEDURES for part
numbers.
