Pump and DE Element Filter System Installation and User’s Guide
Winterizing the System
Allowing water to freeze in the system will damage
the system and cause potential water damage/
flooding and potential property damage.
1. In areas that have freezing winter temperatures, the pool
equipment must be winterized to protect it from damage.
2. Open the High Flow manual air relief valve.
3. Remove the drain port cap at the bottom of the filter.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Remove drain port cap for
draining water from filter. Leave the drain port cap off
and store it during the time the system is shut down.
4. Drain all appropriate system piping.
5. It is recommended that the pump and filter be covered with a
tarpaulin or plastic sheet to inhibit deterioration from the
weather. DO NOT wrap the pump motor with plastic.
6. In installations where the pump cannot be drained, a 40%
Propylene Glycol 60% water solution will protect to -50° F
(-45.5° C)
Note: Do not use anti-freeze solutions except Propylene
Glycol; as other anti-freeze are highly toxic and will
damage the pump.
