clip

Attach a length of 5/8" minimum inside diameter hose to the filter and run to the floor drain or other suitable drain

point. Other suitable drains include a laundry tub, sump, or a standpipe.

To attach drain hose at the filter (Figure 10), the drain fit- ting has both garden hose threads and a hose barb. Do the following, depending on the type of hose you use.

GARDEN HOSE: Remove the drain fitting from the valve. It is held in place by a plastic clip. Use a hacksaw to cut the hose barbs from the end of the fitting. Replace the fit- ting in the valve and attach the drain hose.

all the way onto the barbs. USE AND AUTOMOTIVE CLAMP OR A SPRING CLAMP TO HOLD IT IN PLACE.

IMPORTANT:

Flexible drain hose is not allowed in all areas. SEE NOTE ON PAGE 8.

Leave an air gap of about 1 -1/2" between the end ofthe hose and the drain. This gap is needed to prevent sewer back flow into the filter. DO NOT put the end of the hose into the drain or connect without an air gap.

Place or support the hose so it does not kink or have sharp bends. FASTEN THE END OF THE HOSE TO A BRICK OR OTHER HEAVY OBJECT SO WATER PRES- SURE WILL NOT MAKE IT "WHIP".

Keep the hose lower than the drain fitting. In some homes, to get to a drain you must raise the hose and run it over head. Ifyou need and over head drain, do not raise the hose more than 8'above the floor or the filter will not work as it should.
