Jacuzzi JMC16 Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento página 13

Screw the supplied half barrel unions and tails onto the inlet and outlet before gluing the
UPVC piping onto the media filter.
!
CAUTION
Use only recommended glue for connection pipe and fittings
Cut and fit the pipe and fittings onto the JMC16 and the pump. Refer to Pump Installation
Manual for correct pump plumbing procedures.
It is best practice to fit all the cut pipe and fittings onto the filtration system before gluing;
this will ensure that the system has been aligned correctly.
Glue the pipe and fittings onto the pump, filter and pool return lines and allow the glue to
set for 24 hours before commissioning the system.
Plumbing Connection
1. Ensure that a foot valve / non return valve is installed if the pump is installed 20" above
the water level.
2. If the filter is installed below the water level or connected to mains water, isolation
valves should be installed at the inlet and outlet of the filter. This will prevent water flow
during any routine maintenance.
3. Minimize the length of pipe and the number of fittings to minimize restrictions to water flow.
4. Connect the pipe extending from the pump outlet to the inlet of the JMC16.
5. Connect from the pipe extending from the outlet of the JMC16 to the next component in line
with the filtration system.
6. Glue all plumbing to barrel union fittings in accordance with glue (solvent) manufactures
specifications and allow 24 hours to set. Ensure glue (solvent) is not excessively applied to
fittings as this could run onto "o"-rings and create sealing problems.
Note: Jacuzzi recommends that a shut off valve be installed after the JMC16 on the pool
return line to assist with flushing out the collected debris. Please refer to "Insufficient
Water Pressure".
7. Connect to Waste Line. Glue the plumbing from the Sediment Purge Valve to a waste
line, drain or suitable drainage area.
8. Turn on pool pump. Be sure to check that there are no leaks from the connectors. If
required, tighten by hand.
