Operations
Chemical Requirements
This cleaning unit, due to its chemical injection pump
design, can be used with a variety of water-diluted
chemical compounds (either acidic or alkaline),
depending on the job to be done. However, to obtain
optimum results with this unit, we recommend using the
PROCHEM line of chemicals. For information on using
the cleaning compounds, refer to the chemical manual.
Water Requirements
Hard water deposits will adversely affect the plumbing
and heat exchange systems on this unit. The map
below will give you an idea of where areas of high water
hardness may occur. However, any water supply
obtained from a well is almost always hard water and a
water softener will be needed to protect your equip-
ment.
NOTE: Equipment malfunction or component failure
caused by hard water scaling is NOT covered under
the warranty.
If you are operating this unit in an area where the unit
will be using water in which the harness exceeds 3-1/2
grains, we highly recommend a suitable water softener
be installed. If using a water softener, it must have a
five (5) GPM (or greater) flow capacity without any hose
constrictions.
Using a water softener will reduce maintenance and
decrease down time caused by hard water scaling. It
will also allow cleaning chemicals to be more effective
in lower concentrations
If you require a water softener, your dealer has a model
to meet your needs. Please contact your nearest
distributor for information, price, and availability.
