Installation Instructions
Section 3.

3.1 Filter Location

1. Select a well-drained area, one that does not flood
when it rains. Damp, non-ventilated areas should
be avoided.
2. Provide solid mounting for the filter and pump
system. Install system on a concrete slab or solid
concrete blocks to avoid risk of settlement. Do not
use sand to level the filter as the sand will wash
away. Filter systems can weigh up to 300 lbs.
3. Install electrical controls at least five (5) feet from
the filter. This will allow enough room to stand
away from the filter during start-up.
4. Allow sufficient clearance around the filter to
permit a visual inspection of the clamp ring (see
Fig. 2).
5. Allow sufficient space above the filter to remove
the filter lid and filter element for cleaning and
servicing.
6. Position the filter to safely direct water drainage.
Align the air release valve to safely direct purged
air or water.
WARNING
Water discharged from an improperly positioned filter
or valve can create an electrical hazard which can
cause death, serious injury or property damage.
CAUTION
Maintain your pressure gauge in good work ing order.
The pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how
the filter is operating.

7. If the filter is to be installed below the water level
of the pool, isolation valves should be installed on
both the suction and return lines to prevent back
flow of pool water during any routine servicing
that may be required.

3.2 Filter Preparation

1. Check carton for damage due to rough handling
in shipment. If carton or any filter components are
damaged, notify carrier immediately.
2. Carefully remove the accessory package. Remove
the filter tank from the carton.
3. A visual inspection of all parts should be made
now. See parts list on page 13.
4. Wrap teflon tape around the threads on the
pressure gauge and install it into the threaded
adapter on top of the filter tank (see Fig. 3).
5. Wrap teflon tape around the threads on the air
release valve and install it into the threaded
adapter on top of the filter tank (see Fig. 3).
NOTE
Teflon tape is included in the acessory bag.
