Inspecting And Handling Your Filtration System:
Inspect the equipment for shipping damage. If damaged, notify the transportation company and request a damage inspection. Handle the system with care.
Damage can occur if dropped or set on sharp, uneven projections on the fl oor. Do not turn the system upside down.
We Recommend Testing Your Water Prior to Installation:
An analysis of your water should be made prior to the selection of your water conditioning equipment and fi lter media. Enter your water analysis results below
for a permanent record.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Hydrogen sulfi de (H

S) must be tested for at the well site. For accuracy, the sample must be drawn with the pump RUNNING and the test be completed
within ONE minute after the sample is drawn.

1. CBF series fi lters could be used to neutralize acid water. However, UN Series fi lters are better suited for this purpose.
2. When using Filter-Ag or Filter Sand for the reduction of turbidity, the suspended solids causing the turbidity must have a density less than the material being used as a fi ltering agent.
3. May require use of a solution tank and a change to the controller. Contact Technical Service for more information.
