Installation Steps

1. Spider Valve

assembly must be

installed at the high point of the system

such that the effluent will gravity drain

from the valve to the disposal trenches.

Consult site plan and Figure 1.

2. At least 3' of distal pressure should be

maintained on the manifold to ensure

proper effluent splitting.
