Congratulations on your purchase of a Barnes PGPT
Grinder Pump. With proper care and by following
a few simple guidelines your grinder pump will
give you many years of dependable service.
Use and Care
The Barnes PGPT Grinder Pump station is
designed to handle routine, domestic sewage.
Solid waste materials should be thrown in the
trash. While your station is capable of accepting
and pumping a wide range of materials,
regulatory agencies advise that the following
items should not be introduced into any sewer
either directly or through a kitchen waste
disposal:
• Glass
• Metal
• Diapers
• Socks, rags,cloth, or sanitary wipes
• Plastic objects (e.g., toys, utensils, etc.)
• Sanitary napkins or tampons
In addition you must NEVER introduce into any
sewer:
• Explosives
• Flammable Material
• Lubricating Oil and/or Grease
• Strong Chemicals
• Gasoline
General Information
Your home wastewater disposal service is
part of a low pressure sewer system. The key
element in this system is the grinder pump
station. The basin collects all wastewater from
the house. The solids in the sewage are then
ground to a small size suitable for pumping in
the slurry.
The grinder pump generates suffi cient
pressure to pump this slurry from your home
to the wastewater plant.
Power Failure
Your grinder pump cannot dispose of
wastewater or provide an alarm signal without
electrical power. If electrical power service is
interrupted, keep water usage to a minimum.
Warranty
Your grinder pump is furnished with a warranty
against defects in material or workmanship.
A properly completed Start-Up/Warranty
Registration form must be on fi le at the Barnes
factory in order to activate your warranty.
In addition your pump must be installed in
accordance with the installation instructions.
If you have a claim under the provisions of the
warranty, contact your local Barnes Distributor.
When contacting your representative for service,
please include your station serial number,
pump model number, and pump serial number.
