Do’s And Don’t’s For Installing A Unit
1. DO read all installation materials supplied with the
pump.
2. DO inspect unit for any visible damage caused
by shipping. Contact dealer if unit appears to be
damaged.
3. DO clean all debris from the pit before installation.
4. DO install a union check valve (see STEP 3) in the
discharge line. DO NOT use a discharge pipe smaller
than the recommended pump discharge sizes.
5. DO install a filter or strainer in the water supply line
before the pump to prevent small particles from
clogging the operating valve.
6. DO test the pump immediately after installation to be
sure that the system is working properly.
7. DO review all applicable local and national codes and
verify that the installation conforms to each of them.
8. DO NOT use the Home Guard ® Optima in hot water.
DO NOT use the Home Guard ® Optima to remove
wastewater, sewage, effluent, or water with debris in it.
9. DO NOT use a garden hose. Garden hose is not
designed to hold municipal pressure indefinitely and
could leak or burst causing flooding. The Home Guard ®
Optima requires a permanent piping method such as
copper, PEX, or CPVC.
Helpful Hints For Easy Installation
1. The system is designed for installation in sumps with
minimum of 18” diameter and 22” deep. For smaller
applications, consult factory.
2. Remove all debris from the pit before installation.
3. Be sure that the pump is clamped securely to the
primary pump discharge pipe and that the two pumps
do not interfere with each other.
4. Install a serviceable check valve in the discharge line.
5. Install a filter or strainer in the water supply line before
the pump. Size the filter/strainer properly to minimize
pressure drop, while retaining particles at least 0.020"
(0.5 mm) in diameter.
6. Test the unit immediately after installation. Refer to
STEP 5.
7. Check the Float ON/OFF levels per STEP 2 of the
instructions.
8. Obtain model number, date code, and installation
instructions before calling factory.
