To reduce pressure losses, 2" (minimum) piping is
recommended for plumbing the system.
For best efficiency use the fewest possible number of
fittings. This will prevent a restriction in the water flow.
Make all plumbing connections in accordance with
local plumbing and building codes. Filter connections
are provided with an o-ring seal. To avoid damage to
the o-rings, use only a silicone base lubricant on the
o-rings. Do not use pipe joint compound, glue or
solvent on inlet/outlet coupling nuts.
Keep piping tight and free of leaks. Pump suction
line leaks may cause air to be entrapped in filter
tank or loss of prime at the pump. Pump discharge line
leaks may show up as dampness or jets of water.
Support the inlet/outlet pipes independently to
prevent any undue strains on the filter MPV.
Connect the pipes using the unions supplied with
the MPV. Do not use teflon tape or pipe dope on any
unions. Assemble the unions dry and hand tighten.
Be sure that all provisions for waste water disposal
meet local, state or national codes. One hundred
gallons or more of pool water will be discharged during
filter backwashing. Do not discharge water where it
will cause flooding or damage.
