Installation Notes
Shut off the pump and relieve system pressure before disassembly. Remove the existing hose and adapters between pump and filter. Inspect hose ends and fittings for wear or abrasion. Install the new VLX4006A kit hose with the included adapters, ensuring proper slip-fit or clamp-type connection as required. Re-pressurize the system and check for leaks at the new hose joints and connections.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the pump-to-filter hose annually or when servicing the filter tank. Look for bulges, soft spots, flattened sections or chemical discoloration. Replace promptly if you observe damage to maintain proper flow and avoid pump strain or hose rupture.
