Installation Guide
Additional installation accessories such as hoses, hoses clamps are available from your pool dealer.
K. Filter-Pump assembly (Figure1)
1. Assemble the filter system at the location where the pump will be installed.
The filter pump consists of the following parts:
a. 90° connector
b. Transparent cover
c. Clamping ring
d. Filter tank
e. 1¼”-1½” return to pool hose fitting
f. Tank and pump base plate
g. Filter pump
h. 1¼” diameter connection hose
2. Assembly of filter system (Figures 2, 3, 4 & 5) Also, review the parts breakdown and diagram
a. Open the clamping ring and remove the transparent cover from the filter tank.
b. Fill the filter tank with the cotton tails which are included with the order, approx. 0.8 lbs.
c. Now place the large tank O-Ring onto the underside of the transparent cover.
d. Lay the transparent cover onto the upper neck of the filter tank. It is very important to ensure that all surfaces
have been cleaned once again and are free from any dirt or debris before you do this.
e. The transparent cover is connected to the filter tank using the clamping ring. The clamping ring is screwed
together with the clamping ring screw and clamping ring screw nut.
f. Fit the 90° connector on the upper side of the transparent cover.
g. Connect the 90° connector to the filter pump by using the connection hose provided. Fasten all connections
with hose clamps and ensure that the pump connecting pieces are sealed using “Teflon” tape, (available at any
plumbing or hardware store).
3. Pump hose connections (Figure 5)
A. Return line – This is the hose connection between the filter tank and the pool’s return water fittings. The
filtered water is fed back into the pool at this point.
B. Skimmers or intake fittings – This is the hose connection between the pool skimmer or intake fittings and the
filter pump. Water to be filtered is drawn from the pool and into the pump at this point.
L. Filter system start up Instructions
1. Once the filter system has been properly assembled, the cotton tails placed in the tank and the hoses connected
as described above, you may begin with filtration.
2. Do not plug the system in until advised to do so.
3. Before operating the filter system, it is important to ensure that the filter system is positioned outside the pool
and is lower than the pool’s water level. The hose connections must also be correctly connected and fastened.
4. If you haven’t already done so, fill your pool with water. Ensure that the water level is at least 1’’- 2’’ above the
top of the intake hose (Skimmer) and return fittings in the pool all.
5. Now vent the filter system. If applicable, open the air vent plug on the upper side of the transparent filter cover
until the water flows out.
6. If your pool is so equiped, release the shut off valve at the intake port (Skimmer) in the pool. If you plugged the
intake port (Skimmer), remove the plug to allow the water flow into the inkate hose.
