NOTE: DO NOT solder connections while attached to the system as this could damage the
O-ring seals.
4. Mount the BWT ICE controller horizontally to the wall, near the chamber. Ideally place the
controller above the chamber and away from any water connection point, to prevent any water
from potentially leaking onto the controller by means of a leak at a connection point or a "swea-
ting" system. Make sure you allow for a "drip-loop" as shown on the lamp, sensor, and power cord,
again, to prevent any water from potentially entering the controller.
5. Install the UV lamp.
6. When all plumbing connections are complete, slowly turn on the water supply and check for
leaks. The most likely cause of leaks is from the O-ring seal. In case of a leak, shut water off, drain
cell, remove the retaining nut, wipe the O-ring and threads. Clean and re-install.
7. Once it is determined that there are no leaks, plug the system into the ground fault interrupter
and check controller to ensure the system is operating properly. The controller should illuminate
without any alarms.
NOTE: DO NOT look directly at the glowing UV lamp.
8. Allow the water to run for a few minutes to clear any air or dust that may be in the chamber.
NOTE:
When there is no flow, the water in the cell will become warm, as the UV lamp is
always on. To remedy this, run a cold water tap anywhere in the house for a minute to flush
out the warm water.
DISINFECTION PROCEDURE
UV disinfection is a physical disinfection process and does not add any potentially harmful chemicals
to the water. As UV does not provide a disinfection residual, it is imperative that the entire distribution
system located after the UV be chemically disinfected to ensure that the plumbing system is free
from any bacteriological contaminants. The disinfection process must be performed immediately af-
ter the UV unit is installed and repeated thereafter whenever the UV is shut down for service, without
power, or inoperative for any reason. The procedure for sanitizing the plumbing system is readily
accomplished as follows:
Ensure the controller is
plugged in for entire disin-
fection process.
Drip loop
- Shut off the water supply.
- Close each faucet.
