P.T.F.E TAPE 3m x 1.5 ABS PIPE
Prior to installing the filter and pump, please study the plumbing layout plan as shown above. Included in the pool kit is
small amount of plumbing fittings and pipework to enable you to site the filtration unit 2.5 metres away from the pool.
However, plumbing configurations may vary in accordance with site conditions, ancillary equipment etc. therefore, extra
plumbing may be purchased from your dealer.
If you intend to bury the pipework beneath ground level as per the diagram, please ensure that P/P Socket Unions are
used to enable you to drain the pipe(s) for the Winter season.
All threaded fittings must have P.T.F.E (supplied) applied to them. Apply a minimum of 20 wraps of P.T.F.E onto a threaded
fitting in a clockwise direction. As an extra precaution. it is a good idea to apply a thin film of Silicone
Sealant prior to screwing the fitting into a threaded socket.
Make sure that all pipework enters all the fittings correctly i.e. at least 3/4” of pipe should enter
fitting.
All pipe work supplied is manufactured in ABS or PVC. DO NOT be tempted to use
alternative pipe i.e Wastepipe, OSMA etc it is not suitable for pool filtration. Source extra
pipework if required from your dealer.
Cut all pipework with a Hacksaw. Clean and de-bur edges with sand paper prior to applying
glue. Use ABS/PVC glue only and liberally to both fittings. Leave 24 hrs to fully cure.
Do not glue fittings unless you are entirely sure that all pipework is in the correct position. Once glue
has been applied, you will not be able to remove or adjust any fittings!
Any water or air leaks that appear when filtration has started will require glued or threaded fittings to be re-made.

TIP!
Dry fit all fittings
together prior to gluing
fittings. Once glue has been
applied it will be impossible
to remove any fittings!
Ideally allow 24 hrs for
glue to fully cure.
