To ensure maximum system performance, all replacement components should be purchased directly from an authorized dealer or directly from
Greenway Home Products. The use of components purchased from other sources will void the warranty, and will potentially cause the system to
function in a lesser capacity than intended.
The UV lamp and quartz tube should be serviced annually to ensure proper performance. Clean quartz sleeve regularly for optimum performance.
Filter cartridges should be replaced every six months, or when the pressure drop through the cartridges inhibit water flow in the home to the
point where pressure losses are being experienced.
The life of the UV lamp, quartz tube and filter cartridges are estimates only, and will vary dependant upon the influent water quality.
Replacement/service schedules referenced above should be a maximum, and more frequent service/cartridge replacement may be required
dependant upon your local water quality.
The VPS1140 is intended for the supplemental bactericidal treatment of disinfected public drinking water or other drinking water which has
been tested and deemed acceptable for human consumption by the provincial/state or local health agency having jurisdiction. The VPS1140 is
designed to reduce normally occurring non-pathogenic nuisance microorganisms.
If you will be using an untreated surface water or groundwater source (rather than a municipal supply source) that has been deemed
acceptable for human consumption by the provincial/state or local health agency having jurisdiction, additional pre-treatment of the water prior
to the VPS1140 may be required.
The filtration provided with the VPS1140 is 5 µm nominal, and is not suitable for the reduction of protozoan cysts.

2.1 Water Quality Parameters

Water quality will adversely affect the performance of your vitapur ® VPS1140, particularly when untreated surface water or groundwater
is being used as the source of supply, if the Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL's) for the following six critical water quality characteristics are
being exceeded:
Iron Total iron count must be less than 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
Turbidity Count must be less than 1 NTU
Tannins Count must be less than 0.1 ppm (0.1mg/L)
Manganese Count must be less than 0.05 ppm (0.05mg/L)
Hardness Count must be less than 120 ppm (7 grains per gallon)
%UVT Must be greater than 75%
(transmittance)
If you are using untreated surface water or untreated groundwater as your source of supply, the suitability of the water supply for potable
applications must be confirmed by provincial / state and/or local health agency having jurisdiction.
If the test results indicate that: (1) any of the above contaminant levels are being exceeded, or (2) any prevailing drinking water health standards
are not being met, additional pretreatment facilities must be installed that will eliminate all contaminants, which pose health risks.

3. Installation Instructions

3.1 Accessibility, Orientation & Fittings
Always mount the VPS1140 in a location that provides ample space for accessing the ultraviolet lamps. Service may require removing the UV
lamp and quartz tube. A minimum of 18", (45 cm) of clear space should be provided on either the left or right side of the unit based on the
direction of installation of the UV lamp. As the VPS1140 generates heat during use, please ensure that no combustible items come into contact
with, or are in proximity to the system.
It is recommended that you maintain at least 6" (15 cm) of clear wall space on all sides of the VPS1140 for cooling purposes. This will prolong
the operating life of the system.
cautIon: Whenever soldering is required on any VPS1140 system component, always detach that component from the system first.

3.2 Optional Bypass Line and Drain Valve Installation

warnInG: To prevent contamination of water in the plumbing, which may pose a health hazard, do not use bypass line and valve if your source
of supply is untreated surface water or groundwater.
If your source of supply is treated municipal water, use of the bypass line and valve will permit uninterrupted treated water service in the event
of system malfunction.
Always test the bypass valve following each use of the bypass line, prior to re-starting the VPS1140 to confirm that the valve has been fully
closed and that only water from the outlet port will thereafter be going downstream.
The installation of a drain valve, while not required for system operation, is recommended for all installations of the VPS1140. The installation of
a drain valve will allow the service technician to drain the system of water prior to conducting any service on the unit.
A bypass system for the VPS1140 can be installed as outlined below:

please note that the vpS1140 is not equipped with a
bypass valve system when purchased. the addition of a
bypass valve system is at the discretion of the user. all
plumbing components must be purchased separately.
