First Water Flex-Chlorinator Operation Manual Download

Page: 6 / 12

Chemical Preparation

The Flex-Chlorinator is designed to inject a chlorine dilution into your

water supply to provide a residual amount of chlorine in your water.

Because First Water Systems can not guarantee the quality of water going

through the Flex-Chlorinator, the following guidelines are for the total

chlorine demand of your water, not the final desired residual chlorine.

1. Open the case and remove the Chlorine Dilution Containers.

2. Follow the chart below to achieve the proper dilution of household

bleach. CAUTION: never use bleach with fragrance, perfume, detergent

or any other additives.

3. Position the Flex-Chlorinator in line with your water treatment sys-

tem after all pumps, filters and heaters; before your distribution/storage

point.

4. Place the Chemical Pump Suction Tube into the Chlorine Dilution Con-

tainer.

5. Make appropriate connections as shown on the next page.
