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.

Filter Location
WARNING
To Reduce the Risk of Fire, install pool equipment in an
area where leaves or other debris will not collect on or
around the equipment. Keep surrounding area clear of
all debris such as paper, leaves, pine-needles and other
combustible materials.
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 300
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. 1.

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.
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.
7. 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.

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. Remove
the filter tank from the carton.
3. A visual inspection of all parts should be made
now. See parts list in Section 9.
4. Install the pressure gauge and adapter assembly to
the threaded hole marked "Pressure Gauge" at the
top of the filter. See Fig. 2.
5. Install the air release valve into the threaded
opening marked "Air Release" at the top of the
filter. See Fig. 2.
NOTE: Teflon tape is included in the accessory bag.
