-
Choose an area located near the chemical supply tank,
chemical injection point and electrical supply. Install the pump where
it can be easily serviced.
-
Mount the pump to a secure surface or wall. Wall mount to a
solid surface only. Mounting to drywall with anchors is not recommended.
-
Do not mount the pump directly over your chemical
container. Chemical fumes may damage the unit. Mount the pump off to the
side or at a lower level than the chemical container opening.
-
Mounting the pump lower than the chemical container will
gravity feed the chemical into the pump. This "flooded suction"
installation can reduce the time required to prime the pump. Install a
shut-off valve, pinch clamp or other means to halt the gravity feed to
the pump during servicing.
-
Your solution tank should be sturdy. Keep the tank covered
to reduce fumes.
-
Be sure your installation does not constitute a cross
connection with the drinking water supply. Check your local plumbing
codes.
