  1. This product must be connected to a grounded, metallic, 

permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding 

terminal or lead on the product.

  2.   Place the blower where it is easily accessible for maintenance 

and inspection.

  3.   Install the blower in an area where it will be protected from 

damage  and  flooding.  Also  make  certain  the  location  has 

good ventilation.  DO NOT place the blower below water 

level as back-siphoning can occur.

  4.   Install the blower on a foundation that is level and solid.
  5.  Excavate trench for air line from blower to the switching 

valve,  and trench for air lines from switching valve to 

Fusion

®

 unit. 

  6.   Install one 1" (25.4 mm) air line from the blower to the timer 

in front of switching valve switching valve.  Piping should 
be less than 17' (5 m) from blower to Fusion

® 

unit.  The 

recirculation line is 3/4" (19 mm) and the backwash line is 

1" (25.4 mm).

  7.  The blower is provided with one discharge port. Install the 

included air line PVC tees in the backwash and recirculation 

lines.

  8.  Attach the small diameter black air tubing (included in the 

blower 

box) to barbed fitting on PVC tee. Black air tubing 

and blower cord should be routed to the control panel 

through conduit. Attach the black air tubing line to the air 

pressure sensor barbed fittings in the panel. (Figure 10)  If 

air tubing is not connected to backwash and recirculation 

lines, the panel will alarm. 

  9.  Connect the remaining end of the PVC tee to the airline 

installed in Step 6.

 10.  The switching valve is 100V and must be connected to the 

panel through the use of the supplied transformer. See 

included transformer timer installation instructions.
