  • Page 8 PLEASE NOTE: All AQUA FLO UV disinfection systems are intended for indoor use only as they should not be exposed to the elements. The controller will require a ground fault circuit inter- rupter (GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be mounted beside or above the reactor.
  • Page 9: Installation

    For water supplies where the maximum flow rate is unknown, a flow restrictor is rec- ommended so that the rated flow of your particular AQUA FLO system is not exceeded. The flow restrictor should be installed on the inlet port of the reactor.
