CLEANING THE NOZZLE AND VENTURI
A clean nozzle and venturi (FIG. 9) is a must for the
filter to work right. This small unit moves potassium
permanganate solution from the bottle, into the
mineral bed during solution draw (page 13). If the
nozzle and venturi becomes plugged with iron, sand,
silt, dirt, etc., it can not make the suction to move the
solution. Without this solution during regeneration,
the mineral bed will not be cleaned as it should.
Clean the nozzle and venturi each time you change
the bottle. If your water supply has high amounts of
iron, sand, silt, etc., you may have to clean the nozzle
and venturi more often.
To get to the nozzle and venturi, remove the filter top
cover. Be sure the filter is in service cycle (no water
pressure at nozzle and venturi), then turn off the cap
from the nozzle and venturi housing. DO NOT LOSE
THE LARGE O-RING SEAL. Lift out the screen
support and screen, then the nozzle and venturi.
Wash and rinse the parts in warm water until clean. If
needed, use a small brush to remove iron or dirt. Also
check and clean the gasket and flow plug ifdirty. • INSTALL WITH
