E. MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
WARNING:
The System has been
designed and tested to offer reliable service, provided if
it is installed, commissioned, operated, maintained and
tested in strict accordance to the safety instructions
contained in this manual. Failure to properly maintain
the System will compromise performance and/or
result in failure to control water quality which may
lead to delivery of contaminated water. Consuming
contaminated water could result in serious injury or
possible death.
A Homespring Authorized Technician must perform all service
and maintenance. As part of the annual maintenance, the
Homespring Authorized Technician will perform an Integrity
Test to check the condition of the System membrane and
perform a cleaning procedure to clean the System membrane.
This annual test and cleaning is mandatory as part of the
5-year limited prorated membrane warranty.
If the Homespring Authorized Technician determines that
the System has a high degree of debris and contaminants,
causing an abnormally high reduction in System flowrate,
the number of maintenance visits per year may be increased
to ensure that the System functions within its acceptable
operational parameters and to ensure that the limited
warranty remains in effect.
