GENERAL INFORMATION

• Clean a new pool as well as possible before filling pool and operating filter.

Excess dirt and large particles of foreign matter in the system can cause seri-

ous damage to the filter and pump.

• With a modular media filter system in place and operating correctly, clean

water is returned to the pool faster than pool water is being contaminated. A

typical pool installation will require approximately one week to obtain and

maintain the sparkle that your filter is capable of giving you.

• Maximum pressure is 50 PSI (345 kPa). DO NOT connect the filter to a city

water system.

Hazardous pressure. Open air release valve to vent all air

from system before operating system. NEVER operate filter with air

trapped inside.

• The Sta-Rite modular media filter system is designed to filter water for swim-

ming pools and spas. On a new installation, we recommend:

1. Disassemble the filter after the initial cleanup.

Hazardous pressure. To prevent severe injury or major prop-

erty damage, exactly follow "Filter Disassembly/Assembly Procedure" on

Pages 8 and 9.

2. Remove and hose down the filter module to remove contaminants.

• Maintain pool water pH between 7.2 and 7.6.

• Make sure that internal air bleed tube and filter are clean and installed prop-

erly at top of module before operating filter.

• Make sure that Posi-Lok™ Ring is securely locked in place before operating

filter.

• Maintain pressure gauge in good working order. Replace a damaged gauge

immediately.

• Cleaning interval is based on pressure rise, not on length of time filter is op-

erated. Different water conditions will have different normal cleaning inter-

vals.

• Check local codes for restrictions on waste water disposal requirements.

NOTICE: Some pool disinfectants may clog filter module. To maximize

module life and filter cycle time, closely follow disinfectant manufacturer’s

instructions when cleaning pool or filter. Failure to follow these instructions

may affect warranty coverage of the module.

Pressure Gauge Reading at Startup ___________________________________

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”, below, right).

In some pools, accessories such as foun-

tains or pool cleaners may be noticeably

affected by the normal decrease in flow as

the filter becomes dirty. If so, clean the fil-

ter more frequently (that is, at a pressure

increase of less than 10 PSI) in order to

maintain the required flow.

WARNING

Risk of falls and injury.

Filter surface is

slippery.

Do not allow children to

stand or play on filter.
