8. Verify that all valves have been returned to the
proper position for normal operation.
9. Open the pressure release valve on the filter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
10. Turn on the power to the pump. Once all the
air has been evacuated from the filter, close the
pressure release valve.
5.2 winterizing the Pump
CAUTION
The pump
must
be protected when freezing
temperatures are expected. Allowing the pump
to freeze will cause severe damage and void the
warranty.
CAUTION
Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool,
spa, or hot tub systems!
Antifreeze is highly toxic
and may damage the circulation system. The only
exception to this is Propylene Glycol. For more
information, see your local pool/spa supply store or
contact a qualified swimming pool service company.
1. Drain
all
water from the pump, system equipment,
and piping.
2. Remove the two (2) drain plugs. Store the drain
plugs in a safe location and reinstall them when
the cold weather season is over.
Ensure drain plug
o-rings are not misplaced.
3. Keep the motor covered and dry. Do not cover
the pump with plastic, because this will create
condensation that will damage the pump.
NOTE
Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. recommends having
a qualified service technician or electrician
properly disconnect the electrical wiring at
the switch or junction box. Once the power is
removed, loosen the two (2) unions and store
the pump indoors. For safety, and to prevent
entry of contaminants, reinstall all conduit and
terminal box covers.
4. When the system is reopened for operation,
have a qualified technician or electrician make
sure all piping, valves, wiring and equipment
are in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Pay close attention to the filter
and electrical connections.
5. The pump must be primed prior to starting. Refer
to Section 4.1, Start-up.
