Installation & Compatibility Notes
Before installation, shut-off pump power and relieve system pressure. Remove the existing valve, clean all connection surfaces, and align plumbing to the new valve ports. Properly attach unions or solvent-cement joints to 2″ plumbing. After assembly, restore circulation and verify each handle position functions as expected (e.g., correct flow direction, no leaks). For optimum results, install on level equipment pad and ensure access to handle and sight-glass.
Maintenance Tips
- Check the sight-glass during backwash cycles to confirm clarity and proper flow reversal.
- Inspect O-ring, cover clamp, and handle detents annually for wear or damage and replace if needed.
- Operate through each handle position periodically to prevent stiff movement or stuck position due to debris or chemical exposure.
- If the valve leaks in certain positions or cannot hold pressure, service or replace the internal components or entire assembly.
