WATER PRESSURE:
A minimum of 20 pounds of water pressure is required for re-
generation valve to operate effectively.
ELECTRICAL FACILITIES:
An uninterrupted alternating current (A/C) supply is
required. Note: Other voltages are available. Please make sure your voltage supply is
compatible with your unit before installation.
EXISTING PLUMBING:
Condition of existing plumbing should be free from lime
and iron buildup. Piping that is built up heavily with lime and/or iron should be replaced.
LOCATION OF FUSION SUPERFILTER TANK AND DRAIN:
The Fusion Superfilter
tank should be located close to a drain to prevent air breaks and back flow.
BY-PASS VALVES:
Always provide for the installation of a by-pass valve if unit is not
equipped with one. The Catalytic Carbon Superfilter is equipped with a bypass valve.
CAUTION:
Water pressure is not to exceed 80 psi, water temperature is not to exceed
110°F (43°C), and the unit cannot be subjected to freezing conditions or direct sunlight.
1. Use a piece of duct tape to cover the top of the distributor tube in the tank. Be sure the
distributor tube is centered in the tank. The distributor tube should be flush with the top
of the tank or no more than 1/4” below flush. Install the supplied funnel and pour the
gravel in the tank first. Each system will ship with gravel and Catalytic Carbon media.
Pour the gravel in the tank first then pour in all the Catalytic Carbon media that was
shipped in the tank last. US Water does not ship “extra” media. If possible, fill the car-
bon tank with water and allow it to soak while the other components are installed. This
will reduce the backwash/ rinse time needed to flush out the carbon fines during the
startup procedure.
