Installation & Compatibility Notes
Before installation, turn off the pump and relieve system pressure. Remove the existing head assembly from the filter tank, clean the mounting surfaces and drain port threads.

Reassemble the filter, restore circulation, and check for any leaks around the head, drain port or vent valve.
