FILTER MODULE CLEANING
PROCEDURE
Risk of chemical burns. Do not attempt to
acid clean the filter or filter module. If the filter requires acid
cleaning, have a trained pool professional do the job.
Follow all steps in the "Disassembly" section of this manual.
The filter module should be removed and cleaned when
pressure rises more than 10 psi (69 kPa) above startup
pressure. See also "When to Clean the Filter," below.
When to Clean the Filter
The filter module should normally be cleaned when the pressure
gauge reading increases 10 PSI over the start-up pressure (record
the start-up pressure under "Owner's Information", Page 3).
In some pools, accessories such as fountains or pool cleaners may
be noticeably affected by the normal decrease in flow as the filter
becomes dirty. If so, clean the filter module more frequently (that is,
at a pressure increase of less than 10 PSI) in order to maintain the
required flow.
NOTICE: Do not expose the filter module to sunlight for
any extended period of time.
NOTICE: When sanitizing your pool using PHMB (poly-
hexamethylene biquanide based) cleaners, use only
PHMB cleaners to clean the filter module. When using
PHMB sanitizers, the filter module MUST be cleaned
more thoroughly and frequently than for a pool using
chlorine. Follow manufacturer's instructions carefully. Use
of any other type of cleansers with PHMB pool sanitizers
will void the filter's warranty.
NOTICE: Avoid washing filter debris into the outlet port.
Remove drain plug and flush foreign material from inside
of tank before removing filter module.
1. With a hose equipped with a soft flow nozzle, wash as
much dirt as possible off of the filter module while it is
still inside the tank. Allow tank to drain completely.
2. Make sure that the inside of the tank is clean. Lift out
the filter module and hose it down thoroughly. Spray
the entire filter module surface. Allow module to drain.
3. Inspect the filter module. If necessary, repeat the washing
operation. If the filter module is damaged, replace it.
NOTICE: If this cleaning method does not remove all
deposits, see "Special Cleaning Instructions" section in
this manual.
4. Follow all steps in the "Assembly" and "Initial Startup"
sections of this manual.

Special Cleaning Instructions:

Use this procedure to clean scale or oils which are not re-
moved by hosing down filter module. Be sure to dispose
of spent chemicals according to all applicable codes and
waste disposal ordinances. Use a soft stream nozzle to
minimize flying water and spray.
Risk of fire or explosion. Isolate filter from
system before chemical cleaning; rinse filter and filter
module completely before returning to service. If filter
cannot be isolated, remove media and clean at another
location. Follow chemical manufacturer's instructions for
use. Do not mix chemicals except as directed by manu-
facturer. Do not allow cleaning chemicals to mix with or
to come in contact with chlorine, bromines, other chemi-
cals, or chemical feed devices.
1. Sponge or spray the filter module according to chemi-
cal manufacturer's directions.
2. If soaking is required, remove the filter module from
the filter tank and submerge it in a separate tank.
Follow cleaner manufacturer's instructions carefully.
3. After completing chemical manufacturer's instructions,
drain and rinse the filter module completely. Dispose of
cleaners in accordance with local codes and disposal
ordinances.
4. Rinse the inside of the filter tank. Drain it completely.
5. Follow instructions in the "Assembly" and "Initial
Startup" sections of this manual.
