CONNECT A VALVE DRAIN HOSE
9° The valve drain fitting has standard garden
hose threads. Connect a 5/8" I.D. MINIMUM size
garden hose to it, Put the other end of the hose over
the floor drain (FIG. 10), or into a laundry tub, sump,
standpipe or other suitable drain. CHECK YOUR
LOCAL CODES.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Flexible drain hose is not allowed in all areas. SEE
NOTE ON PAGE 7.
• Leave an air gap of about 1-t/2" between the end of
the hose and the drain. This gap is needed so you
don't get a back-flow of sewer water into the filter. DO
NOT put the end of the hose down into the drain or
connect without an air gap.
• Place or support the hose so it does not kink or have
sharp bends. FASTEN THE END OF THE HOSE TO
A BRICK OR OTHER HEAVY OBJECT SO WATER
PRESSURE WILL NOT MAKE IT "WHIP."
Keep the hose lower than the drain fitting. (In some
homes, to get to a drain you must raise the hose and
run it over-head. If you need an over-head drain, do
not raise the hose more than 8' above the floor or the
filter will not work as it should.
