Congratulations on the purchase of your ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection system! This system uses the most advanced UV technology on the market and is designed to provide you with years of trouble free operation with minimal maintenance required to protect your drinking water from microbiological contaminants. To ensure ongoing disinfection of your water, UV lamps need to be replaced annually with VIQUA factory-supplied replacements.

Safety Information WA R N I N G • During extended periods of no water flow, the water in your chamber can become very hot (Approx. 60 °C) and potentially lead to scalding. It is recommended to run your water until this hot water has been purged from your chamber. Do not allow water to contact your skin during this time. To eliminate this condition, a temperature management valve can be installed at the outlet of your UV system.

Installation Section 3 Installation 3.1 Installing UV System CAUTION Electronic controller must be connected to a Ground Fault Protected Circuit (GFCI) receptacle. Ensure green ground wire ring terminal is securely fastened to ground stud on UV chamber. Prerequisites: • Determine appropriate indoor location of the controller and chamber, refer to Section 2.1. • Make sure that the controller is installed higher than the chamber and away from all water sources.
Installation 9 • Connect the green ground wire and red strain relief wire to the chamber using the grounding screw. 10 11 • Align connection pins with the lamp connector by rotating the ring clamp. • Push the lamp connector down onto the lamp pins and the ring clamp pins until an audible click is heard. • Connect power. • Open all faucets and turn on water supply. Inspect for any leaks. Note: Outlet must be protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).

Note: DO NOT use Hydrogen Peroxide. 10 9 1 15 45 2 30 • Open all faucets and turn on the cold water supply followed by hot water (if available) until you smell the bleach.
Maintenance 4.1 Replacing UV Lamp NOTICE Do not use water during replacement of UV lamp. Lamp replacement is a quick and simple procedure requiring no special tools. The UV lamp must be replaced after 9000 hours of continuous operation (approximately one year) in order to ensure adequate disinfection. Procedure: 1 4 3 2 1 1 2 2 10 mins 0 15 45 30 • Close all faucets and water supply. • Press the pressure button to release the pressure from the cartridges.
Maintenance 4.2 Cleaning and Replacing Quartz Sleeve Note: Minerals in the water slowly form a coating on the quartz sleeve. This coating must be removed because it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the water, thereby reducing disinfection performance. If the sleeve can not be cleaned, it must be replaced. Prerequisites: • Shut off water supply and drain all lines. • Depressurize the unit. Place a small pail under the unit to catch any spills. • Remove the UV lamp. Refer to Section 4.1.
Maintenance 4.3 Replacing Cartridges CAUTION The sump housings will be heavy. It is recommended to change the filter cartridges regularly, approximately 3-4 times per year depending on water quality and usage. A gradual drop in water pressure after the filtration device is an indication that the pre-filter cartridges are nearing the end of their useful life. Procedure: 4 3 2 1 10 mins 0 15 45 30 • Disconnect main power source and allow the unit to cool for 10 minutes.
