! CAUTION: Read and follow the information in this manual to minimize the risk of electric shock or personal injury. IMPORTANT! If you are unsure about installing of your water filter, contact the helpline or consult a professional plumber. IMPORTANT! This system must be installed in compliance with applicable state and local codes, law, and regulations.
Equipment Overview KDF MediaGuard Removes Chlorine and extends the life of the Activated Carbon. (HP03 only) Premium Granular Activated Carbon Removes taste, odors and THM’s.
Specifications Feedwater ! Do not use this system on water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. ! Minimum inlet pressure: 40 psig Maximum outlet pressure: 125 psig Power Voltage: 120VAC Frequency: 60Hz Power consumption: 7 Watts Maximum Installation Minimum ambient temperature: 34 degrees F Maximum ambient temperature: 122 degrees F Setup Unpacking and Inspection Check the system components for damage or missing parts.
Installation 1. Determine installation site and locate water main. 2. Turn off the water supply to pipes to be cut and drain the house water pipes. 3. Open both hot and cold faucets. 4. Move the filter assembly into installation position. • Be sure the installation surface is level and smooth. 5. Plumb IN and OUT connections to and from the filter. • Be sure the incoming hard water supply is directed to the INLET port of the valve.
Use Step 10 to install rigid drain pipe. 6. To adapt a rigid drain pipe to the HP03 or HP04 system, do not attach barbed hose fitting to valve. Instead, plumb rigid tubing directly to the 1/2" male NPT drain fitting. 7. Cut and glue drain pipe to a suitable drain making sure it is secure. 8. Place bypass valve in "bypass" position 1. Bypass Outlet 2. Service Outlet Inlet Inlet Figure 3 9. Fully open the house main water shutoff valve. 10.
15. Allow unit to run to drain for the duration of the cycle. 10 minutes. Figure 4 With the valve In Service, manually initiate a backwash as the final installation step. This backwash will: a) Complete the final flushing and filtering of the water system. b) Re-classify the media bed if the bed was disturbed during shipping. c) Rinse any remaining residue from lines.
Filter Operation Backwashing consists of three cycles: 1. Backwash Position Backwash is a rapid upward flow of water that loosens the media bed and flushes iron particles, dirt and sediments filtered in the bed out to the drain. 2. Fast Rinse Position Fast Rinse is a fast flow of water down through the media tank that follows a Backwash. This flushes all remaining organics from the tank and packs the carbon bed for efficiency. 3.
Troubleshooting 1. Filter Fails To Backwash. A. Electrical service to unit has been interrupted. B. Timer programming bad (improper programming). 2. System Delivers un-filtered Water. A. Assure permanent electrical service (check fuse, plug, pull chain or switch). B. Check programming and reset as needed. A. By-pass valve is open. A. Close by-pass valve. H. Improper programming. H. Reprogram the control to the proper regeneration type and frequency. L. Unit is plumbed backwards. L.
