Turn on the main water supply. Open a cold water tap nearby and let the water run for a few
minutes until the system is free of foreign material and air that may have resulted from the
installation. Once the water is running clear and free of air, close the water tap.
INSPECT ALL PLUMBING CONNECTIONS AND THE INTERFACE BETWEEN THE MEDIA
TANK AND ITS VALVE HEAD FOR LEAKS AND REPAIR ANY LEAKS FOUND BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
Open the bypass valve for the ecoTAC™ filter to the service position.
Leave the bypass for
the ecoPLUS™ filter in the bypass position.
Slowly open a nearby faucet, allowing a slow
flow of water. It may take several minutes for the flow of water to arrive as the media tank
will be slowly filling with water. During this time, air will escape from the faucet. Run the
water until the system is free of air then close the water tap.
Media Pre-Soak
Set the bypass valve for the ecoTAC™ filter to the bypass position.
Open the
bypass valve on the ecoPLUS™ system to the “service” position. Slowly open a nearby
faucet, allowing a slow flow of water. It may take several minutes for the flow of water to
arrive as the media tank will be slowly filling with water. During this time, air will escape from
the faucet. It is normal for the water to be highly discolored at this stage as carbon fines are
purged from the system. Continue until all air is purged. Then, turn off the faucet and allow
the media to soak for a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours. Set the bypass valve on the
ecoPLUS™ filter to the “bypass” position so you can use water during the media pre-soak
process. Run the nearby faucet until the water runs clear.
It is now safe to turn the electricity back on to your water heater.
Final Media Rinse
After the media has soaked for at least twenty-four (24) hours
, set the bypass valve on the
ecoPLUS™ system to the “service” position again and open a nearby faucet and allow a slow
flow of water to run for 5 minutes. Thereafter, gradually increase the flow rate until a
moderate flow of water is achieved and run at this level for at least another 10 minutes. It is
normal for the water to be discolored at this stage as carbon fines are purged from the
system. Gradually increase the flow rate a little more and run the water until it is completely
clear. If you notice a significant decline in flow rate to the faucet at any point in the process,
shut the water off and wait 10 minutes, then resume the process where you left off.
