WINTER PUMP CARE

In cold climates, Alpine highly recommends to store your pump inside during the coldest months of the year. You may still
use your Eco-Twist™ pump during the winter time, but the Eco-Twist™ pump cannot be used in below freezing temperatures.
This pump is suitable for use in water temperatures from 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) to 95 degrees Fahrenheit
(35 degrees Celsius).
Please follow the steps below:
1. Disconnect the plug cord from the power supply.
2. Disconnect the tubing connected to the fitting.
3. Clean the pump and pre-filter cage with fresh water and store the pump
in a frost-free location in container full of water to prevent the O-rings
from drying.
