Fleck 7000 Sediment Filter Installation & Start-Up
Guide
Thank you for purchasing a Clean Water System! With proper installation and a
little routine maintenance your system will be providing neutral pH water for
many years.
Your new system comes with a printed Fleck Service manual, which along with
this start-up guide will help guide you in the installation and start-up of your new
system. The Fleck service manual covers other types of systems as well such as
water softeners and filters, so there may be information in your Fleck service
manual that does not pertain to your system. Please review this start-up guide
entirely before beginning to install your system and follow the steps outlined for best results.

IMPORTANT: YOU MAY NOT NEED TO ADD ALL THE FILTER MEDIA YOU RECEIVED. THE FILTER TANK
SHOULD NOT BE FILLED MORE THAN 2/3 FULL.
