PREPARATIONS
MEDIA INSTALLATION (WHEN NECESSARY)
When
larger units cannot be loaded due to weight restrictions, media will be shipped pre-measured in separate containers. Follow the steps below
for proper media loading.
NOTE
If severe loss in water pressure is observed when the condition-
er unit is initially placed in service, the conditioner tank may
have been laid on its side during transit. If this occurs, back-
wash the conditioner to ‘reclassify’ the media.

tank.Grease the bottom oring of the adaptor
with silicone grease provided

funnel. Slowly add the gravel
Depending on the type of system,
add the resin, or media next.

that no resin or gravel falls down into the distribution. The
riser (distributor) remains inside the tank seated in the
depression at the bottom. Plug tube with a tape. Remove
after media is loaded. Ensure the bottom of the riser tube
remains seated in the depression at the bottom of the tank.
Fill tank one-quarter full with water to protect the
distribution tube during gravel installation.
