E.) Installing the SPA-1R
First - Mount the Flow Cell Tee
Read All Instructions First
1.) Turn off the pump and close all valves. Disconnect all sources of power going
to the timer or pump.
2.) Locate a space for the electrode flow
cell tee (the 2" slip/slip/threaded tee).
The tee should be installed after the
pump and either before or after the
filter. After the filter is preferred, but it will work fine if installed before the
filter.
NEVER INSTALL THE TEE NEXT TO THE SPA'S HEATER
.
3.) Using a hacksaw or backsaw, cut a 3" gap in the section of pipe if 2" pipe
exists, or cut out a 4" gap if a 1 ⁄ " pipe exists.
4.) Sand the burrs off the pipe. Dry the pipe and clean the ends with PVC
primer/cleaner.
5.) If 1 ⁄ " pipe exists, cement the 2" to 1 ⁄ " reducer bushings into the tee (included with the
SPA-1R).
6.) The tee should be mounted on the return line after the pump and
mounted
slightly downward so that no air-pocket can form in the electrode
chamber (below a horizontal position). THIS IS EXTREMELY
IMPORTANT.
If there is not enough “give” to allow insertion of the tee,
install unions. Generously wrap teflon tape around the threaded part of the
electrode assembly several times
before installing to prevent leaks.
7.) Screw the electrode into the downward facing tee. Tighten only by hand, do not
use any tools to perform this step.
MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH ELECTRODE WIRE COMING FROM THE CONTROL BOX LOCATION
TO REACH THE ELECTRODES WHEN INSTALLED ON THE RETURN LINE.
