NOTE: The PUVR15H system has been designed to be installed on the cold water line only.
NOTE: The UV System should remain turned on continuously to ensure protection of your water system. During
normal operation of the system, the green power LED will be illuminated and the countdown timer will show
days of lamp life remaining. When there is no flow in the system, the water in the UV chamber will be warmed
by the UV lamps. Running a cold water tap for about 30 seconds will eliminate all of the warm water.
The presence of small air bubbles in the water system may occasionally give tap water a milky appearance, but air bubbles will
not affect water quality or taste. Initially, filtered water may appear cloudy due to the release of air trapped within the filters and
throughout the system. Dependant upon your use of the system, this condition should disappear within a few days following system
installation.
Always perform the following start-up procedure when starting your PUVR15H system for the first time or after a dormant period:
1.
Shut off the main water supply valve.
2.
Mount the UV rack system to the wall. Please note that due to the weight of the UV rack, it is essential that the unit is mounted
directly to a concrete wall (screws and washers not provided) or directly into framing studs (screws and washers provided). Do
not mount the unit directly on dry wall.
3.
Hook up inlet water connections and the outlet water connection. For ease of installation and service, it is recommended using
couplings on both the inlet and outlet lines.
4.
The filters are wrapped and the wrapping around the filter(s) must be removed. Mount the filter(s) and housing(s) on the UV
rack system.
5.
Plumb inlet water connections and the outlet water connection. For ease of installation and service, it is recommended using
union couplings on both the inlet and outlet lines.
6.
Confirm that all of the plumbing connections are secured. Partially open the main supply valve while releasing air from the
system by opening a downstream faucet.
7.
Plug in the UV disinfection system and confirm that the UV lamp is illuminated; it will glow purple through the VuCap
®
.
8.
If no leaks are visible at low flow, then fully open the main supply valve. Check for leaks.
9.
For chlorine disinfection of household water distribution system, follow procedures outlined on page 9.
10.
Open a downstream tap and flush the system for 15 minutes prior to initial use.
11.
Your UV rack system is now ready for use.

Service and Maintenance:
Initial Start-Up Procedure:
The following instructions have been provided to assist with general maintenance of the system; UV lamp replacement and quartz
sleeve cleaning/replacement. All other system repairs must be completed by an accredited service technician.
Your PUVR15H uses a dual treatment process involving both filtration and UV disinfection to treat water. The water filters, quartz
sleeve and UV lamp require regularly scheduled replacement/service in order for the PUVR15H to provide maximum
performance.
Replacement UV lamps and quartz sleeves are available from an authorized retailer and GHP Group Inc. Use only PUR
®
lamps and
sleeves to ensure maximum system performance. Replacement lamp and quartz sleeve model # PUVLQS40H. Replacement ballast
model # BA-95H.
