1. Attach
a plywood backing board to the concrete to hold all
the components required for the installation. Install
a GFCI outlet to the board to supply power for the UV
lamp system. |
2. Wrap
the inlet valve with teflon tape (inset), then thread
the solenoid valve onto the UV chamber. Don’t overtighten
any of the threaded connections— tightening with
your fingers is fine. |
3. Attach
the UV chamber bracket clamp to the backer board with
two screws. Slide the UV chamber into the bracket and
tighten the band clamp just enough to support the unit.

4. Make
the wiring connections inside the power transformer
box and attach it to the backer board with two screws.
Position the transformer so it won’t obstruct the
plumbing. |
5. Install
a junction box to house the systems wiring. Connect
the wiring harness for the solenoid valve first (inset)
then run the transformer, power and solenoid leads to
the junction box. |
6. Once
the wiring connections are complete, start planning
the plumbing. Attach the threaded connectors to the
UV chamber and take the necessary measurments for the
copper plumbing. |

7. Dry-fit
all of the copper piping before soldering the connections.
The inline valve shown above is necessary to isolate
the system if and when servicing is required. |
8. Complete
as much of the plumbing as possible before breaking
into the main waterline. Install a 5-micron filter upstream
from the UV filter to prevent debris from reaching the
unit. |
9. To complete
the installation, insert the UV lamp into the reaction
chamber and connect the lamp wiring harness. Flush the
whole system with chlorine bleach to disinfect the plumbing. |
