Instructions
- Unscrew the drain plug from the bottom portion of your well pump head
- Screw the grey check valve into the drain plug hole (Note: Before installing check valve, ensure that the threads of the plug are the same size as the check valve)
- Add some plumbers tape to the check valve thread to ensure a proper seal
- Attach the free end of the 6-inch of clear vinyl tubing to the barbed end of the threaded nylon fitting on the side of the tank and attach the free end of the 6-foot of tubing to the barbed end of the check valve
- Fill the tank half full of water (Note: It is preferable to use municipal or soft water when available)
- Turn on the sprinkler pump, watch the clear vinyl tubing and the clear housing of the in-line filter (Note: Water should appear in about 30 seconds to a minute as a thin continuous stream from the metering jet that is attached to the in-line filter)
- If it does, great, your system is ready to run, If it does not, the foot valve in the tank is likely not operating correctly (shut off the pump)
- Shake the foot valve vigorously, whacking it against the side of the tank (Note: This will purge trapped air from the foot valve and free up the float ball that is enclosed in the foot valve housing)
- Add chemical according to dosage recommendations in the owners manual and fill the tank up to the 30 gallon mark (Note: Make sure that you have your well water tested to ensure you have the correct Rid O-Rust Formula for your type of water)
- When the tank is filled up add 2 cups of household bleach to prevent algae growth in the tank
