Vertical Systems:
Remove the System Cap using the Cap Wrench. The
water level should be at least 2” above the Internal Prefilter
spigot.
If the water level is below 2”, open the Inlet Valve slowly to
raise the water level.
Close the Inlet and Outlet Valves, leaving the Inlet
Mini Ball Valve open. Using the Controller, initiate a Manual
Flush sequence to bring System pressure to close to zero.
Refer to the instructions in the
Controller functions
section under
E. inSTallaTiOn inSTrUCTiOnS
on how
to perform a Manual Flush sequence. Once the Pressure
Gauge registers close to zero pressure, stop the Manual
Flush immediately.

Ensure that the two Mini Ball Valves are closed
(To close, turn the handle perpendicular to the Plug/hose
end). Remove the Plugs from the two Mini Ball Valves by
depressing the lock ring and pulling on the Plug. Insert
a Pressure Gauge from the Integrity Test Kit into the Inlet
Mini Ball Valve, open valve and observe System pressure.
Using the Controller, initiate a Manual Flush
sequence. Refer to the instructions in the
Controller func-
tions
section under
E. inSTallaTiOn inSTrUCTiOnS
on how to perform a Manual Flush sequence. Following the
Manual Flush, open a cold water tap that is downstream of
the System. Allow water to flow for 15 minutes. The System
requires a 15-minute flush to remove the food-grade factory
preservative.

Horizontal-mounted Systems:
Ensure that there is still
some water inside the System after the Manual Flush. Do
not empty the System completely. If water stops coming out
during the Manual Flush, open the Inlet Valve slowly to fill
the System again.
If an External Prefilter is installed, depress the red button
on the External Prefilter head to allow air to escape from
the External Prefilter housing. Once water emerges from
the button, all air has been removed.
For
Horizontally-mounted Systems
, check to make sure
that no air comes out from either Air Relief Valve.
cleaning
Slowly
open the Inlet Valve half way, allowing
water into the System. Avoid opening the Inlet Valve quickly
as this will introduce air pockets that will take longer to es-
cape. Keep the Outlet Valve closed. Check for any leaks in
the plumbing. If present, close the Inlet Valve immediately
and repair. As pressure builds in the System, air will begin
to escape from the Air Relief Valve. Once air is no longer
passing through the Air Relief Valve, the System is pressur
-
ized.
