PROTECT THE CENTRAL
WATER
FILTRATION
SYSTEM FROM
FREEZING
If the Central
Water
Whole
Home Filtration
System is
installed
where it could freeze
(summer cabin,
lake
home, etc.), you must drain all water
from it to stop
possible
freeze damage.
If the system freezes, cracks
may develop
in plastic
parts, which
will leak causing
damage.
To drain the unit:
1. Close the shut-off
valve on the house main water
pipe, near the water
meter or pressure tank.
2. Open
a faucet
in the filtered
water
pipes to vent
pressure in the unit.
3. Move the stem in the single bypass valve to bypass.
Close the inlet and outlet valve in a 3 valve bypass
system, and open the bypass valve.
If you want
water
in the house pipes again,
reopen the shut-off
valve on the main water
pipe.
4. Unplug the transformer
at the wall outlet.
Take off
the drain hose if it will interfere
with moving the
Central Water
Whole
Home Filtration
System into
position
over the drain.
5. Remove the large holding
clips at the Central
Water
Whole
Home Filtration
System inlet and outlet
(See
Figure 8 on Page 8).
Separate
the unit from the
plastic
installation
adaptors,
or from the bypass
valve.
6. Lay a piece of 2 inch thick board
near the floor
drain (See Figure 21).
7. Move the Central
Water
Whole
Home Filtration
System close to the drain.
Slowly and gently,
tip it
over until the rim rests on the wood
block with the
inlet and outlet over the drain (See Figure 21). Do
not allow
the unit's weight
to rest on the inlet and
outlet
fittings
or they may break.
8. Tip the bottom
of the Central
Water
Whole
Home
Filtration
System up a few inches and rest it on
something
like a wood block that will allow
water to
drain.
Rest the bottom
on two stacked
wood
blocks.
Leave the unit laying
like this until you are ready to
use it. Plug the inlet and outlet with clean rags to
keep dirt, bugs, etc. out.
