Winterization
Do not let the laminar freeze. This will void the warranty.
Take the following steps to winterize the Laminar:
1. Remove the Laminar by unscrewing the two deck housing lid retaining screws.
2. Remove the deck housing lid and Laminar unit and place on the deck. Disconnect the supply union.
3. Remove both union nuts from the Laminar brackets and take off the union plugs (don't lose the
O-rings).
4. Spread the brackets carefully and separate the Laminar unit from the brackets.
5. Drain the Laminar by rotating the entire unit until most of the water runs out.
6. Drain the filter and blow out the supply line.
7. Use the union nut and plug to cap off the supply line from the filter (Figure 6).
8. Coil the deck housing supply hose and push it to the bottom of the housing.
9. Turn the Laminar unit so the orifice faces down toward the bottom of the deck housing (be
careful not to damage the light enhancer needle). Orienting the unit face down assures that
water in the LED light engine does not freeze.
10. Replace the deck housing lid.
11. Wait for Spring.
Spare O-rings
We included two spare O-rings with the MagicStream Laminar. They are intended as replacements for
the water supply union O-ring when it is damaged or lost.
Cap off the supply line
from the filter.
