Thru - hull Location : The system must be connected to a dedicated 1/2” to 3/4” forward facing
scoop - type intake thru - hull and seacock.
Install the thru - hull intake as far below the waterline and as close to centerline as possible to
avoid contamination and air entering the system. Do not install the intake close to, or
downstream of, a head discharge, behind the keel, stabilizer fins, or other underwater fixtures.
Thru - hulls in the bow area are susceptible to air intake in rough conditions. Sharing a thru - hull
can introduce unforeseen problems such as intermittent flow restrictions, air bubbles,
contaminants, and will void the warranty. For racing boats and high speed boats traveling above
15 knots, a retractable snorkel - type thru - hull fitting is preferred because it picks up water away
from the hull.
The brine discharge thru - hull should be mounted above the waterline, along or just above the
boot stripe, to minimize water lift and back pressure.
Double clamp all hose connections below the waterline.
Avoid restrictions or long runs on the entire inlet side of the plumbing from the thru - hull to the
feed pump module.
Secure the piping away from moving objects such as engine belts and hatches. Prevent chafe on
the tubing as required. Test and inspect all piping and hose clamps after several hours of
operation.
Pipe Fitting Instructions : To seal plastic - to - plastic fittings, wrap 6 to 8 layers of Teflon tape
over their threads. Hold the fitting in your left hand and tightly wrap the threads clockwise. For
smoother assembly, do not tape the first (starting) threads.
Wiring
