Installing the MEGA8 unit.
1.
The mounting holes on the MEGA8 unit are 16” apart so that you can mount it directly on to wall studs with
appropriate screws to carry the weight of the unit.
Warning:
Do not mount the unit directly on drywall without
appropriate reinforcement.
2.
Install new plumbing using Fig 2 as reference of how the final installation should look.
3.
Carefully unpack UV lamp (R830L) and quartz dome (R830QD).
Note:
Hold lamp and dome by the ends with soft,
dry gloves or cloth.
The gland nut O-ring (515) is
in the groove of the gland nut (factory-installed)
and the dome O-ring (4032) is in a separate
plastic pack.
4.
Gently slide the dome O-ring (4032) over the
top (open end) of the quartz dome to about 1”
from the open end (Fig 4)
5.
Gently insert the quartz dome into the gland nut
(4030)
and gently rotate the dome while
pushing in
until it goes past the nut O-ring (515)
and touches the inside top end of the gland nut.
See Fig 5.
Tip: Rotate dome while pushing IN

6. Carefully slide the quartz dome with gland nut attached
into the opening at the top of the UV chamber and
hand-

dome.
Note:
Broken quartz domes are not covered under
warranty.
Note:
Do not use pipe dope or tape on these top threads
before attaching gland nut
7. Slowly open supply-valve and valves before and after
UV system.
Check for leaks. Do not proceed to next step
until leaks are fixed.
