3. 20 PSI is required Maximum pressure is 90 PSI Get all of your plumbing parts together before beginning installation Installation typically takes 3 to 5 hours However after installation the Pyrolox Filter must be allowed to run through a complete backwash and rinse cycle After the system is installed and running your water may be discolored or full of sediment or rust particularly if this is older or corroded piping Typically this clears up over a day or two Best Practices for Piping amp Drain Installation See typical installation see Fig 2 page 4 The Pyrolox filter is installed after the pressure tank Make sure to follow to connect the in pipe to the Clack WS1 inlet and the outlet to the outlet see Fig 2 As you face the Clack WS1 control from the front the water enters on the right and exits on the left From the back see Fig 2 the water enters on the left The inlet and outlet are attached to the bypass valve which is marked with arrows as well Make sure there is a working gate or ball valve before the Clack WS1 Pyrolox filter and also one after as shown in the diagram Fig 2 The pressure gauges are optional and perhaps not necessary but a hose bib which is a faucet that you can attach a garden hose to is strongly recommended after the Pyrolox filter before the second ball valve This makes it easy to rinse your new Pyrolox filter on start up and gives you a place to test the water before it enters your household plumbi

Clack WS1 Pyrolox Installation amp Start Up Guide Thank you for purchasing a Clean Water System With proper installation and a little routine maintenance your system will be providing treated water for many years Your new system comes with a printed Clack Service manual which along with this start up guide will help guide you in the installation and start up of your new system The Clack service manual covers other types of systems as well such as water softeners and filters so there may be information in your Clack service manual that does not pertain to your system Please review this start up guide entirely before beginning to install your system and follow the steps outlined for best results PYROLOX MEDIA CONTAINS DUST USE PAPER MASK AND VENTILATE TO AVOID BREATHING DUST p 2806 C Soquel Ave Santa Cruz CA 95062 CLEAN WATER SYSTEMS For assistance call 1 831 462 8500 hed Email us office cleanwaterstore com More information online www cleanwaterstore com Pre Installation 1 Review your packing list and make sure you have received all the parts before beginning installation If you are going to be turning off the water to the house and you have an electric water heater shut off the power to the water heater before beginning installation in case water heater is accidentially drained Pick a suitable location for your filter system on a dry level spot where it won t be exposed to freezing temperatures A minimum of
