4.
Mount the VIQUA ICE controller horizontally to the wall, near the UV chamber. Ideally place the controller above the
chamber and away from any water connection point, to prevent any water from potentially leaking onto the controller by
means of a leak at a connection point or a “sweating” system. Make sure you allow for a “drip-loop” as shown in
on the UV lamp, UV sensor, and power cord, again, to prevent any water from potentially entering the
controller.
5.
Install the UV lamp. Refer to
6.
When all plumbing connections are complete, slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks. The most likely
cause of leaks is from the O-ring seal. In case of a leak, shut water off, drain cell, remove the retaining nut, wipe the
O-ring and threads. Clean and re-install.
7.
Once it is determined that there are no leaks, plug the system into the ground fault interrupter and check controller to
ensure the system is operating properly. The controller should illuminate without any alarms.
Note:
DO NOT look directly at the glowing UV lamp.
8.
Allow the water to run for a few minutes to clear any air or dust that may be in the UV chamber.
Note:
When there is no flow, the water in the cell will become warm, as the UV lamp is always on. To remedy this, run a
cold water tap anywhere in the house for a minute to flush out the warm water.
