Installation and Owner’s Manual
(For Aftermarket Application)
NOTE:
Hex/swivel barb fittings provide easy removal,
if maintenance or access is required. The fittings are
designed with a “taper seal” to create a watertight
connection when hand tightened. Always secure barb
tubing connections with properly-sized stainless steel
clamps to prevent leaks.
NOTE:
Never use thread sealing tape or sealing
compounds on threads. Tape or sealing compounds may
enter the pumps and cause a failure.
Rapid cycling may be caused by excessive back pressure
created by one or more of the following within the plumbing
system:
•
Water filters and purifiers not on separate feed lines;
•
Flow restrictors in faucets and shower heads;
•
Small inner diameter lines;
•
Restrictive fittings and connections, e.g. elbows, T’s and
feeder lines to faucets.
To reduce rapid cycling, the pump shutoff pressure switch
setting
(Fig.3)
can be increased by turning the screw
clockwise 1
1/2
turns maximum.

Plumbing The System
1.
Install in-line screen
(Fig.2A)
on the inlet side of the
pump
(Fig.1)
to prevent debris from entering the pump.
2.
Using the supplied
1/2
" swivel connectors
(Fig.2B)
connect flexible, high-pressure hoses to both the outlet port
of the pump and the inlet port of the in-line screen
(Fig.1)
.
NOTE:
The pump ports and strainer should not be
connected to plastic or rigid pipe. At least 1' of flexible,
high-pressure tubing is recommended. The pump’s normal
oscillation may be transmitted through rigid plumbing,
causing noise and possibly loosening or cracking
components.
3.
Plumb the system with flexible pipe/tubing that is a
minimum of
1/2
" inner diameter reinforced hose for main
lines.
