Thank you for purchasing a Clean Water System!   With proper installation and a little routine 
maintenance your system will be providing filtered water for many years. 

Your new system comes with a printed Fleck Service manual, which along with this start-up guide will 
help guide you in the installation and start-up of your new system.   The Fleck service manual covers 
other types of systems as well such as nitrate filters and filters, so there may be information in your
