Special Instructions for Split-Stream and Public Water Supply Installations For a split-stream installation, a secondary pressure tank must be installed as shown in the split-stream installation diagram (Page 10). On a public water supply installation, a pressure tank must be installed as shown in the public water supply installation diagram (Page 10). - Page 13 The plumbing system and water using appliances that have been exposed, even for a short time, to iron-fouled water need to be cleaned of the precipitated iron that has collected in them or iron bleed (staining) will continue to be a problem. Depending on the amount of iron in the water and the length of time the water system has been exposed to iron fouling, select from the following procedures those that apply to the type of system and appliances that need to be cleaned to assure iron-free water at all points of use.
