Filter Cartridge Replacement - Pentair OMNIFILTER BF9C Instrucciones De Instalación

FILTER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT

A) Place a pan under the unit to catch any spilled water. Turn off water
supply to filter. Depress red pressure-relief button on top of filter. Use
housing wrench to unscrew bottom of housing. Turn slowly to the left
and support the housing and piping as you loosen the housing.
NOTE: If turning off water supply to the filter will also turn off water
supply to the rest of the home, be sure to fill a bucket of water first to
allow you to clean the housing after it has been removed.
B) Pour out the water from the housing and remove and discard the old
cartridge. Locate and remove large O-ring, wipe clean of lubricant
and set aside. Rinse out bottom of housing and fill about 1/3 full with
water. Add about 2 tablespoons of bleach and scrub cap and bottom
of housing with nonabrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly. Check
O-ring for damage. If cut, scratched, or stretched, replace it with a
new one. If the O-ring is in good condition, lubricate it with clean
silicone grease, insert it back into groove and smooth into place with
finger. Insert new cartridge over standpipe in bottom of housing.
C) Screw bottom of housing onto the cap and hand-tighten.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Turn on water supply slowly to allow filter
to fill with water. Depress red pressure-relief button to release trapped
air. Check for leaks before leaving installation.
NOTE: After installation, flush the cartridge for 10 minutes, wait one
hour, then flush again for 10 minutes before using the water.
NOTE: Use only genuine OMNIFILTER replacement cartridges for best
results. Failure to use OMNIFILTER replacement cartridges will void
your warranty.
