General Information
Your home wastewater disposal service is part of
a low pressure sewer system. The key element
in this system is the Barnes
Ultra
GRIND grinder
pump station. The basin collects all wastewater
from the house. The solids in the sewage are
then ground to a small size suitable for pumping
in the slurry.
The grinder pump generates suffi cient
pressure to pump this slurry from your home to
the wastewater plant.
Power Failure
Your grinder pump cannot dispose of
wastewater or provide an alarm signal without
electrical power. If electrical power service is
interrupted, keep water usage to a minimum.
Warranty
Your grinder pump is furnished with a
warranty against defects in material or
workmanship. A properly completed
Start-Up/Warranty Registration form must
be on fi le at the Barnes factory in order to
activate your warranty. In addition your pump
must be installed in accordance with the
installation instructions.
If you have a claim under the provisions of the
warranty, contact your local Barnes Pumps,
Inc. Distributor.
When contacting your representative for
service, please include your station serial
number, pump model number, and pump
serial number.
