STEP 4-C: RAPID RINSE - THE FINAL BACKWASH CYCLE
ACTION:
Allow system to go into rapid rinse (it’s another backwash
cycle). This cycle will last for 9 minutes. Display (3 - - 9) will
count down until rapid rinse cycle is finished.
Note: It can take up to 20 seconds as valve moves into cycle.
OBSERVATION:
The purpose of the manual backwash is to flush the system similar to the procedure used by smaller point of use or
sink filtration units. Due to certain circumstances; ie: flow rates, PSI, weather conditions, handling, heavier media of
larger units, iron units, etc., the drain water may still not run clear
IF THE DRAIN WATER IS STILL NOT RUNNING CLEAR - REPEAT STEPS 4-A through C.

STEP 6: PIPES AND HEATER FLUSH AND PREPARATION
Go into the home or facility and run all faucets, hot and cold, and one tub on the hot side only. When that tub is
running cold, all the water now in the pipes and heaters are filtered. This totally prepares the home for usage
immediately. See additional information in this manual on older homes and pre-existing conditions.
