Section 3. Installation Instructions
WARNING
Use equipment only in a pool or spa installation. Do not
connect system to an unregulated city water system or
other external source of pressurized water producing
pressures greater than 35 psi.
3.1
Filter Location
1. Select a well-drained area, one that does not flood
when it rains. Damp, non-ventilated areas should
be avoided.
2. The filter should be installed on a firm, solid, and
level surface or platform to avoid risk of settlement.
Do not use sand to level the filter as the sand will
wash away; filter systems can weight up to 800
pounds. Check local building codes for additional
requirements. (Ex. Equipment pads in Florida must
concrete and equipment must be secured to the
pad.)
3. Install electrical controls at least five (5) feet from
the filter. This will allow enough room to stand away
from the filter during start-up.
4. Allow sufficient clearance around the filter to permit
a visual inspection of the clamp ring. See Fig. 2.
5. Allow sufficient space above the filter to remove
the filter lid and filter element for cleaning and
servicing.
6. Position the filter to safely direct water drainage.
Align the air release valve to safely direct purged
air or water.
WARNING
Water discharged from an improperly positioned filter or
valve can create an electrical hazard which can cause
death, serious injury or property damage.

CAUTION
Maintain your pressure gauge in good working order. The
pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how the filter
is operating.
7. If the filter needs to be located above the water
level of the pool, it can be raised 2.5 ft. without
affecting the pump efficiency. A check valve is
recommended on the suction line to the pump.
8. If the filter is to be installed below the water level
of the pool, isolation valves should be installed on
both the suction and return lines to prevent back
flow of pool water during any routine servicing that
may be required.
3.2
Anchor Bracket Installation
In some areas, for example Florida, building codes
require that all appliances be securely fastened to
the equipment pad in order to withstand high wind
pressures created by hurricanes. Zodiac Pool Systems
LLC provides an anchor bracket kit for this purpose.
Please see the Parts List in Section 9 of this manual
for the correct part number. Follow the Anchor Bracket
Installation Kit Instructions to attach the brackets to
the filter.
NOTE: Anchor screws and washers for securing the anchor
bracket to the equipment pad are not included with the
filter or the anchor bracket kit. Zodiac recommends
that a ¼" x 2¼" long stainless steel Tapcon
screw and stainless steel flat washer are used to
mount each anchor bracket to the equipment pad. The
Tapcon concrete screw meets Florida building code
requirements.
After placing the filter on the equipment pad, as
outlined in Section 3.1, drill a 5/32" hole in the
concrete at each of the four (4) brackets on the filter.
(The correct size concrete drill bit should be obtained
when the concrete screws are purchased.)
Install the Tapcon screws and washers through each
of the four (4) anchor brackets to secure the filter to
the equipment pad. See Figure 3. Do not over-torque
the screws.
3.3
Filter Preparation
1. Check carton for damage due to rough handling
in shipment. If carton or any filter components are
damaged, notify carrier immediately.
2. Carefully remove the accessory package.
3. A visual inspection of all parts should be made
now. See parts list in Section 9.
4. With the carton in an upright position, remove the
filter tank from the carton.
