• Code Compliance: Adhere to all state and local codes regarding pool construction, installation, and
operation. Failure to comply may result in unsafe conditions.
• Chemical Hazard: Do not store chemicals near the pool. Chemical spills and fumes can weaken the
pool structure, leading to potential failures.
• Children’s Safety: Do not allow children to operate or use the sand filter. Position equipment to
prevent it from being used as access to the pool by young children.
• Entrapment Risk: Ensure all plugs used for pressure testing or winterization are removed from
suction outlets to prevent suction entrapment.
• Severe Injury or Death Risk: Improper installation or use of this sand filter can result in serious injury
or death. Installers, pool operators, and pool owners must read all instructions and safety warnings
before using this sand filter.
• Hazardous Pressure: Pool and spa circulation systems operate under high pressure. Failure to
follow safety instructions could cause the pump housing or filter to violently separate, leading to
severe injury, death, or property damage. Before servicing, ensure the system is off, and the
manual air relief valve is open.
• Separation Hazard: Improper assembly or maintenance can lead to violent separation of
components, causing severe injury or death. Always ensure all system components are correctly
assembled and secure.

STEP 1
BACKWASH (Initial Run)
Use this setting to clean the filter. When the filter pressure gauge rises 5-10 PSI (0.0.34-0.69 BAR, this
reading may vary depending on the pool's pump and general piping system) above the start-up clean
pressure.
• Turn off the pump and set the valve to the "BACKWASH" position.
• Start the pump and backwash until the water in the sight glass is clear. This usually takes about 2
minutes or less, depending on the amount of dirt accumulated, and then turn off the pump.
Proceed to “RINSE”.

RINSE (Initial Run)
This ensures that all the dirty water from backwashing is rinsed out of the filter and goes to waste,
preventing possible return to the pool.
• After backwashing, keep the pump off and set the valve to "RINSE" position and start the pump for
about 0.5 to 1 minute.
• During rinsing, discharge water through the drain pipe. After sufficient rinsing, stop the pump, set
the valve to “Filtration”, and start the pump for normal filtering.

FILTER (Regular Operation)
For normal filtering and regular vacuuming.
• Turn off the pump. Set the valve to the "FILTRATION" position for regular pool filtration. Then, start
the pump.
• Occasionally check the pressure gauge to ensure pressure remains within the normal range 5-10
PSI (0.0.34-0.69 BAR), this reading may vary depending on the pool's pump and general piping
system.

RECIRCULATE (Move The Water Around Without Filtering)
Only use the it for a short period of time when the filter is malfunctioning, there is a severe algal
bloom in the water, chemicals are being added to the pool, or after the filter has been backwashed.
• With the pump remaining off, set the valve to the "RECIRCULATE" position to circulate the pool
water without filtering it. Then start the pump.
• After sufficient circulation, turn off the pump.

It enables water to access the filter but avoids passing through the filter media, instead directing it

filter while vacuuming the pool. Then start the pump.

CLOSED (Shut Off The Flow To The Filter and Pool)
This function involves shutting the valve to prevent water from entering, offering utility in clearing
the lines during the pool's opening process and during winterization to expel air through the suction
lines, redirecting airflow into the pool.
• With the pump remaining off, set the valve to the "CLOSED" position to prevent water from
entering.
Avoid activating the pool pump when the 7-way valve is set to CLOSED, as this could result in
damaging the filter, the pump, or both.

OPERATION
DANGER
WINTER (For Winterizing) (Continued)
Before attempting any corrective actions, ensure that the pump is in the OFF position. To avoid any
potential electrical hazards, wait until the remaining power in the capacitor is fully discharged before
proceeding with any work on the pump.
• Storing Pump for Winterization
◦ Turn off the power for the pump.
◦ Drain Water.
▪ For Sand Filter
- Turn the valve to “BACKWASH” for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Set the valve to “WINTER” position.
▪ For Cotton Ball Filter
- Turn off the pool pump power.
- Locate and open the drain valve at the bottom of the filter tank.
- Allow the water to drain from the filter.
- Close the drain valve once draining is complete.
- Set the valve to “WINTER” position.
◦ Cover the motor to shield it from severe rain, snow, and ice.
◦ Avoid wrapping the motor in plastic, as it can lead to condensation and rust on the inside of the
motor.
