biofilm and encrustations, which must be removed mechanically.
UV Pure recommends sanitizing the household or facility plumbing by adding 50
ppm chlorine from bleach for 12 hours and then flushing. This can be achieved
by doing the following:
Step 1:
Turn off the unit by unplugging it.
Step 2:
Shut off the water supply and relieve the water pressure by opening a
faucet.
Step 3:
Remove the filter from its housing and fill the housing with bleach.
Step 4:
Re-mount the housing (but not the filter) and plug in the Hallett to turn it
on.
Step 5:
Once the Hallett is operating, turn on the water supply and run water to
all faucets (hot and cold), toilets, the washing machine and other water-using
appliances – the bleach must fill every inch of plumbing. The Treatment Alarm
may arise due to low UVT after the introduction of bleach. If this occurs, use the
manual override on the solenoid valve to keep valve open during procedure.
Return override to auto position afterward.
Step 6:
When you detect the odor of chlorine at each spot, stop running the
water and let the bleach remain in the lines for at least 12 hours –
turn off the
Hallett unit
.
Step 7:
After the waiting period is over, plug in the unit. Once stable, flush every
line for at least five minutes or until the odor of chlorine
is gone. See local
regulations for proper disposal of chlorine residual, especially in the case of
discharge into a septic system.
Step 8:
Now that the disinfection procedure is complete you will need to return
the filter to its housing. Shut off the water supply, relieve water pressure by
opening a faucet, and return the filter to the housing. Allow a few days after a
disinfection procedure before getting a sample since residual chlorine may affect
the results.
Have the water tested by a local recognized testing agency prior to any water
consumption. UV Pure partners with water testing organizations in select
locations throughout North America. Contact UV Pure for potential water testing
partners: 1-888-407-9997. The testing should be performed on a regular basis as
required by local regulations.
Caution: Do not allow corrosive chemicals to remain in the unit for more
than 12 hours – Do not operate unit during this time period as heating the
water will increase corrosive nature of chemicals.
