Installation Tips to Ensure Proper Performance
Before installing, read all directions carefully and contact your dealer for installation support.
WARNING
• Do not exceed maximum operating pressure of 50 psi.
• Do not install automatic or fast shut off valves downstream of feeder.
• Always install the FROG Leap Twin Infuzers AFTER the heater (if applicable) on the return line.
• Always install any additional sanitizing equipment AFTER and NEVER BEFORE the FROG Leap Twin Infuzers are installed on the return line.
1) If using a multi-speed pump, run pump for at least 6 hours per day at high speed (at least 40 gpm).
If the pump will run on low speed 24 hours per day or less than 6 hours per day on high speed, you must bleed the air while the pump is on by unscrewing both Infuzer back knobs until water appears from both Infuzers. Then screw the knob back in. Repeat this process each time the cap is removed for any reason.
A. With High Flow Rate (greater than 80 gpm)
FROG Leap Twin Infuzers
Install T-ttings exactly as shown.
B. With In-Floor Cleaner - TWO OPTIONS
OPTION 1- A Two-Line Installation
The best option is to have two lines. One line with pump, lter, heater and
FROG Leap Twin Infuzers and a second line with a separate pump for the in-oor cleaning system (lter optional).

2) Install system with 4-8 psi back pressure.
Lower back pressures could result in under chlorination. Change the eyeball ttings in the return jets to a smaller size to increase back pressure. Contact King Technology at 800-222-0169 for a specially designed Infuzer pressure gauge to determine back pressure at pool start-up.
3) Special installation Requirements:
IMPORTANT: Over chlorination or damage to the FROG
Leap Twin Infuzers or other equipment could result if special installations A, B or C are not used in these situations.
If water ow is higher than 80 gallons per minute (gpm), see diagram A.
If an in-oor cleaner is included with pool, see diagram B, with two options. Preferred installation is Option 1 with two separate lines.
If set-up is a pool and spa combination with common equipment, see diagram C.
