Plumbing - onsen 3.0 Guide D'utilisation

PLUMBING

The inlet and outlet hose must be a minimum ½" (13mm) I.D. flexible
hose to both ports. Using a hose with a smaller diameter can cause high
backpressure, cycling, low flow and noise.
Installation of a strainer is required to prevent debris from entering
the pump. Pump failure due to foreign debris is not covered by the
warranty.
Mount the pump within 5 feet of the tank (or any other water source) for
best performance and pump life. The greater the distance between the
pump and the water source, the greater the strain on the pump.
Plumb the system using high pressure, braided, flexible hose to mini-
mize vibration and noise. The pump's ports and strainer should not
be connected to plastic or rigid pipes. The pump's normal oscillation
motion will transmit through rigid plumbing, causing noise and possibly
loosening or cracking components.
To prevent rapid cycling (pulsating flow) caused by excessive back pres-
sure, check for the following restrictive elements within your plumbing
system:
Water filters / purifiers NOT on separate feed lines
Flow restrictors in faucets and showerheads
I.D. hoses and pipes smaller than ½" (13mm) throughout the plumbing
system
