    Successful Application Any filter media may have specific limitations and/or requirements for successful application. A water sample should be submitted to First Sales for analysis and recommendation by Customer Service. Time of Backwash Periodically the control valve will go through a backwash cycle. This cycle is factory preset to 12:00 A.M.
  • Page 4 Pre-Installation Instructions Water Supply This filter will function properly when the water supply is furnished by a jet pump, submersible pump, variable speed (constant pressure) pump or community water supply. As with all other filter systems, however, it is imperative that the well pump provides enough flow rate for the filter to adequately backwash. In order to ensure sufficient backwash flow rate the following pumping rate test should be performed prior to installing the NBW/NEBW.

    General Installation GENERAL INSTALLATION & SERVICE WARNINGS The water conditioner is not designed to support the weight of plumbing. Do not use Vaseline, oils, other hydrocarbon lubricants or spray silicone anywhere. A silicone lubricant may be used on black “O” Rings. This will allow ease of installation and decrease chance of rolling from the bypass and tank connections.
