Iron Filter and Potassium Permanganate Feeder Installation Guide
Important: The iron filter is capable of treating a combination of undesirable constituents in the water (iron,
manganese, and/or hydrogen sulfide). However, the filter must be applied within the operating limits stated in
the Filter Specifications in this manual. Failure to comply with these specifications will degrade performance
and possibly cause the control valve to malfunction.
Note: The iron filter should be installed after the pressure tank or water meter and before the water heater or
any water softener appliance, unless otherwise recommended. See Figure 6. A minimum 3/4-inch pipe is
required for proper function of the filter. Examine the inlet piping to make sure the pipe is not plugged with lime
or iron. If the piping is plugged, it must be cleaned or replaced.
