Sand Filter SFSM | Installation & Operation Manual
®
• The larger tank drain is a universal union
fitting. Sand removal is easiest without further
restriction at this fitting. However, if a short
piece of piping is desired to direct the sand
being flushed away from the filter base, a
universal tailpiece and union nut can be used.
See Figure 11.

expected life or is exposed to extreme
conditions, the product user should contact
