INSTALLATION

This feeder is designed for hard plumbing installation using 1

PVC pipe and includes standard threaded inlet and outlet

fittings. It operates by pressure differential which circulates through the feeder. The inlet line, (control valve side of feeder) connects to the plumbing between the pump and filter. The outlet side of the feeder connects to pool return line after the

and/or heater, pool cleaner, diverter valves or any other

filter piece of equipment (if installed). A corrosion resistant check valves such as Rainbow's between the feeder inlet and outlet and the equipment to help prevent equipment damage.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Exercise extreme caution when operating or servicing feeder. NEVER OPEN FEEDER WHEN PUMP IS RUNNING. DO NOT INHALE FUMES, especially in hot weather which can create more gases. Wear manufacturer's instructions for handling the chemical. Before start up of feeder your pool should be properly conditioned and the chlorine residual should be 1.0 to

4.0 ppm). Consult your local dealer for water conditioning information in your area. Because the sanitizer demand in your pool is dependent on many factors (sunlight, high temperatures, bather load, etc.) your valve setting may have to be changed from time to time to adjust to these conditions. When possible, increase the feed rate a day or two in advance. The recommended start up setting is sanitizer residual. It is recommended that the sanitizer residual be checked daily for the first NOTE: Higher numbers dispense more chemical. Small gradual changes are imperative for control.
