Flushing the Carbon in the Carbon Tank: Use provided parts V3007, D2466, D2464, A-679. Once the media tank is installed on the main water pipe, you must Flush Out the Carbon media for 10-15 minutes or until the water runs clear. To flush the media turn the Bypass Valve to Normal Operation Mode. (See figure. 3). Once the bypass valve is open, find the outside garden hose faucets that are located nearest the Green Carbon Tank and open the faucets all the way to flush the system.
Carbon Tank Installation 1. The bypass valve comes complete with O-rings, split rings and black quick connector nuts. Install the bypass valve by pressing the valve onto the head of the tank and hand tighten both black quick connect nuts. 2. When running the piping for the Green Carbon Water Conditioner, connect the incoming water supply to the DOWN-FLOW INLET (Input) side. Connect the water supply line going into the house to the UP-FLOW INLET (Output) side. (See Figure.
Bypass Valve Operation Mode Normal Operation Mode: Water flows through the Bypass Valve and into the Green Carbon Conditioner supplying treated water into the house. (See Figure 5) OUT GOING WATER TO HOUSE INCOMING WATER SUPPLY INPUT UPFLOW INLET INLET DOWNFLOW OUTPUT Figure. 5 Bypass Operation Mode: Water flows through the Bypass Valve without entering the Green Carbon Conditioner and the water entering the house is untreated.
Carbon Conditioner Overview 1. During the carbon flush, the pressure can start to drop off. If this happen, turn off the water and let the tank sit about 30 minutes to allow the carbon to settle down off of the basket inside the tank. Pressure drop can occur as there is air trapped in the carbon bed that needs to be released from the tank. If the pressure continues to drop after 30 minutes, let the system stand for 72 hours. After 72 hours, slowly turn the water supply back on and continue the carbon wash.
