Page 7: Sizing Requirements
Sizing Requirements Water Pressure The water system must have a pump big enough to deliver the recommended backwash rate with a minimum pressure at the inlet of the filter of 30 psi. If the existing system can- not do this, it must be upgraded to do so. Whenever possible, the water system should be adjusted to deliver at least 30 psi for even more satisfactory results. -

New Sounds You may notice new sounds as your filter operates. The regeneration cycle lasts up to 30 minutes. During this time, you may hear water running intermittently to the drain. Automatic Raw Water Bypass During Regeneration The regeneration cycle can last 30 minutes after which filtered water service will be re- stored. -
Page 14: Maintenance
Maintenance Maintenance of your new water filter requires very little time or effort but it is essential. Regular maintenance will ensure many years of efficient and trouble-free operation. 1. Periodically make sure your pump is performing satisfactorily to ensure sufficient water is available for backwashing the filter. - Page 15 Loading the Media Pak Place the distributor tube back down the center of the tank. NOTE: the top of this tube should be plugged with a rag or cork to prevent media from entering. Pour the bag of coarse gravel into the tank, and then pour the bag of fine gravel into the tank. It is important that the distributor tube is not moved or pulled out as it is not possible to put it down to the bottom of the tank once gravel or media are in the tank.
