MAINTENANCE

Sediment Filter
It is recommended that the sediment filter be replaced every 6-9 months depending on the amount of sediment present in the
water supply. If the system has been working properly and the pressure is slowing, it may be time to change the sediment filter.
Check the sediment filter and replace if necessary.

Replacing the Sediment Filter
1. Turn off the main water supply to the sediment filter system and bypass all tanks.
2. Run a faucet (cold water) inside the house to relieve the pressure. Leave the faucet open.
3. Unscrew the blue filter housing clockwise using the supplied filter wrench.
4. Remove the existing sediment filter and discard.
5. Remove the o-rings and wipe the upper groove clean. Lubricate two new o-rings with a coating of clean silicone grease.
Replace both o-rings. Be sure to press the upper o-rings down into the groove with two fingers.
Note
This step is important to ensure the proper filter seal. Make sure the upper o-rings is seated level in the groove. If the
o-ring appears damaged, stretched, or crimped it should be replaced.
6. Place a new sediment filter onto the stand pipe in the blue filter housing.
7. Screw the blue filter housing onto the filter cover hand tight. Lightly snug the housing with the spanner wrench making sure
not to over-tighten.
8. Turn on the main water supply slowly to allow the sediment filter system to fill with water and expel air from lines. Put tanks
back in service (out of bypass).
9. Check for leaks.
Chemical Injector Pump:
1. Clean lower end and service check valve every 3-6 months or as needed.
2. Change every 6-12 months (Injector Pump Seal Kit - 3 O-Rings & Check Valve)
Note
Spare kits for replacement purposes can be obtained by calling your customer service representative.
Solution Tank Refill — Bleach & Water
1. Check the level of the Solution Tank twice per month. Do not let the liquid in the tank fall below ¼ full.
WARNING
Running the pump without solution, will cause damage to the pump.
2. Fill the Solution Tank with bleach and treated water as needed (Water that has gone through your filtration system).
