Cleaning Procedure:
1. Close the service valve and push “Auto Store” to effect a fresh water flush.
2. Connect your inlet service hose and the brine discharge service hose. Push “Auto Store”
again and allow to run until there is 1 gallon (4L) of water in the bucket. Stop the system.
3. Turn the service valve to the service position.
4. Make sure that the pressure relief valve is open (un-pressurized).
5. Mix the cleaning chemical in the bucket.
6. Start the system with the manual switch on the MPC control box and circulate the chemi-
cal through the system for the required time.
7. Stop the pump, replace the brine discharge hose and start the pump until the bucket is
empty. Stop the pump and rotate the service valve back to the run position. Restart the
pump and run for 20 minutes to flush the chemicals out of the system.
(DO NOT CLOSE the pressure relief valve!)
8. The system may now be restarted to make water, flushed or stored.

Spectra cleaning compound (SC-2 or SC-3) must be mixed with fresh water at a ratio of 1 con-
tainer of compound to 3 gallons (12L) of unchlorinated water to have the proper solution. An av-
erage of two gallons (8L) of water is already present inside a Ventura 150 system . This water has
to be figured into the mixture. A Ventura 150 system will use one container of compound.
