III. Before You Begin Installation
The GT1-18 Media Vessel kit comes standard with a Pressure Vessel (H1252FRP-2.5), a Runxin Manual
Multi Port Valve (GT36-33K) and a 1” Lateral Drop Tube (Riser Pipe) (GT36-
30
) (the tube is pre-cut to the
exact length required for installation with the bottom strainer pre-installed). A 1” One-Way Check Valve
(GT15-1) will also be required for installation, which you may purchase from FSA or supply your own.
These units are batch tested to ensure there are no leaks. Due to transit, fittings and other components
may be loosened or damaged –
ensure the system and all components are inspected for damage
prior to employing a plumber for installation.
