Inspecting And Handling Your Backwash Filter:
Inspect the equipment for shipping damage. If damaged, notify the transportation company and request a damage inspection.
Handle the fi lter unit with care. Damage can result if dropped or if set on sharp, uneven projections on the fl oor. Do not turn the fi lter unit upside down.
CAUTION CAUTION
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Installation must comply with existing state or local plumbing codes.
Make Sure Your Water Has Been Thoroughly Tested:
An analysis of your water should be made prior to the selection of your water conditioning equipment. Your dealer will generally perform this service for
you, and may send a sample to the factory for analysis and recommendations.
Check Your Pumping Rate and Water Pressure:
Two water system conditions must be checked carefully to avoid unsatisfactory operation or equipment damage:
1) MINIMUM water pressure required at the system inlet is 20 psi (138 kPa).
CAUTION
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 100 psi. If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi (552 kPa), you must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a
plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
NOTE: Call your local water department or plant operator to obtain pressure readings. If you have a private well, the gauge on the pressure tank
will indicate the high and low system pressure. Record your water pressure data below:
