  • Page 4: General Warnings

    GENERAL WARNINGS Do not allow children or pets to play on or around the water filter. Do not install or store this filter system where it will be exposed to freezing temperatures. Do not tamper with controls. Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the system unless specifically instructed to in this manual and you have the understanding, tools, and skills necessary to carry out the procedure.
  • Page 5: Operating Conditions

    OPERATING CONDITIONS The following chart provides guidance on the conditions required for successful operation of your TITAN-Ox™ system. Dissolved iron and manganese have a significant negative impact on the life of the Titanium dioxide treatment media used in the TITAN-Ox™ system. Pre-treatment to remove iron is strongly recommended where iron levels exceed 0.3 ppm (mg/l), and/or if manganese levels exceed 0.05 ppm (mg/l), and may be desirable to extend media life even where the iron and manganese in your raw water do not exceed these levels.
  • Page 6 ** The system cannot be subjected to freezing conditions or severe damage to the system and your property could occur. *** pH correction is strongly recommended where pH levels are less than 6.5 to prevent damage to your control valve and plumbing system, and to prevent leaching of metals from copper and brass plumbing components and solder in your home.
  • Page 7: Installation

    INSTALLATION WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE STARTING THE ACTUAL INSTALLATION. WHILE WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT A LICENSED PLUMBER PERFORM ALL INSTALLATION WORK, A MECHANICALLY-INCLINED HOMEOWNER WITH SUITABLE PLUMBING KNOWLEDGE CAN INSTALL THIS SYSTEM. IN ALL CASES, IT IS CRITICAL THAT THE INSTALLATION BE DONE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL APPLICABLE PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL CODES.
  • Page 8: Step 2 - Selecting An Installation Location

    Step 2. – Selecting an Installation Location While exterior installation in warm climate areas is possible, we strongly recommend interior installation only. The system cannot be allowed to freeze or severe system damage could occur. The system should not be exposed to rain and it should not be installed in direct sunlight, as long-term exposure to UV light could damage components of the system.
  • Page 9: Step 3 - Prepare Treatment Tank

    NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THE DRAIN LINE DIRECTLY INTO A DRAIN PIPE. ALLOW AN AIR GAP BETWEEN THE DRAIN TUBING AND WASTE LINE TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF BACK-SIPHONING. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND USE OF A CHECK VALVE AS IT MAY BECOME CLOGGED WITH CONTAMINANTS EJECTED FROM THE SYSTEM DURING BACKWASH.
  • Page 10 flush or protruding above the top of the tank, the distributor tube is not nested correctly in the recess at the bottom of the tank. Add enough water to the tank to cover the lower distributor with a minimum of 6 inches of water.
  • Page 11 the tank to about 1/2 to 3/4 full. This is normal. The media tank should never be filled to the top of the tank as the remaining space, known as the “freeboard,” is necessary for the media to have room to expand during the backwash cycle. Once you have finished adding the media to the tank, remove the tape from the distributor tube.
  • Page 12: Step 4 - Turn Off The Water & Electric Water Heaters

    Do NOT use pipe cement (“pipe dope”) or Teflon® tape on the threads. Step 4. – Turn off the Water & Electric Water Heaters FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS, PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE HEATING ELEMENTS IN YOUR WATER HEATER. If you have a conventional electric water heater or an on-demand (tankless) electric water heater, we highly recommend that you turn off the power to the heater while installing any water treatment equipment.

You will need to purchase the appropriate NPT threaded fittings to connect the connector yokes to the material and size of your main inlet and outlet water lines.
  • Page 15: Step 6 - Drain Line Installation

    Step 6. – Drain Line Installation NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THE DRAIN LINE DIRECTLY INTO A DRAIN. ALLOW AN AIR-GAP OF A MINIMUM OF 1 INCH (CHECK LOCAL CODES) BETWEEN THE DRAIN LINE AND WASTE LINE TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF BACK-SIPHONING. ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL CODES.

If you are using flexible tubing, be sure that there are no “kinks” or “crimps” in the tubing after installation that may cause a flow restriction.
  • Page 17 Plug the control valve into a standard, grounded 120 volt (60 Hz) electrical outlet. Be certain that the outlet is uninterrupted and not controlled by a switch. An extension cord may be used to reach a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure that the extension cord is UL/CSA certified and of an appropriate wire gauge for the application.
