Cleaning and Disinfection Your Patriot Pro is probably the hardest working appliance in your home, processing millions of gallons of water over its service life and in turn protecting you from countless amounts of inorganic calcium, magnesium, lead, copper, zinc, iron, manganese, and other contaminants that could be in your water. - Page 10 System Installation & Start-up Guidelines Clear the installation area and carefully sweep the floor where the system will be installed.
