The plumbing must be sanitized to eliminate possible
contamination that may have occurred during the instal-
lation process. Chlorine bleach can be used to sanitize
the plumbing. The amount of bleach to use depends on
the system installed and the amount of plumbing down-
stream of the filter system. Generally, 1 or 2 cap fulls of
bleach will be sufficient to sanitize the system.
1. Make sure that the system has been flushed of
air and debris as described in the Flushing and
Starting up the System section of this manual.
2. Open the tap closest downstream to the filter
system.
3. Close the inlet water valve and allow the system
to depressurize.
4. Place a bucket under the strainer at the inlet
connection to the system. Open the strainer by
unscrewing the cap. Water will flow out of the
strainer as the system drains.
5. When the water flow out of the strainer stops,
pour the liquid bleach into the strainer. Be careful
not to spill bleach onto clothing or skin. You may
want to add the bleach using a cup. Reattach the
cap on the strainer.
6. Slowly open the inlet water valve and allow water
to flow out of the tap until the smell of bleach is
present.
7. Close the tap and let the system stand with no
water flow for at least 15 minutes to allow the
bleach to sanitize the pipes.
8. After 15 minutes without flow, open the tap and
flush until the presence of bleach is gone. All
other taps should be opened to flush any bleach
from the plumbing.
9. Close the tap. The sanitization is complete.
Program the timer following the procedure outlined in
the Operation section of this manual.
