Manufacturer recommends a water analysis be done on
water used to fill the system. Treatment may be required
based on the analysis results.
For hard water or pH below 7.0 consult your local water
treatment company.

adequately filtered and treated, otherwise damage and/
or malfunction could be caused. Recommended water

• If the water quality is outside these ranges, consult a local
water treatment specialist for recommendations.
