SAFETY GUIDES
=
Before beginning installation, read the manual and obtain tools
and materials needed.
=
The installation must conform to local plumbing and electrical codes.
=
Use only lead-free solder and flux for all sweat solder connections.
=
Handle the Central Water Filtration System with care. Do not
turn upside down, drop, or set on sharp protrusions.
=
Do not locate the Central Water Filtration System:
-
where freezing temperatures may occur.
-
in direct sunlight.
-
where it may be exposed to wet weather.
=
Do not attempt to treat water over 49°C.
=
This system works on 24 volt, 50/60 Hz electrical power only. Be
sure to use the transformer and plug it into a nominal 230V, 50
Hz household outlet that is in a dry location only, grounded and
properly protected by an over current device such as a circuit
breaker or fuse.
=
This system is not intended to be used for treating water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the system.
European Directive 2002/96/EC requires all electrical and
electronic equipment to be disposed of according to

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
=
Installation should only be performed by a trained professional.

=
A 230V, 50 Hz, grounded, continuously “live” electrical outlet is
needed, in a dry location within 2 meters of the EcoWater
Systems Central Water Filtration System.
=
After completing installation of the system, perform a pressure
test to detect any leaks.
=
After completing installation, perform the start up procedure
before using any water.
