Installing the Aqua-Clear Fiberglass Sand Filter
Only a qualified service person should install the Aqua-Clear Fiberglass Sand Filter. This filter is
designed and intended for use to filter water.

Introduction

The following general information describes how to install the Aqua-Clear fiberglass sand filter. This filter operates
under pressure and if assembled improperly or operated with air in the water circulation system, the top closure
can separate and result in an accident causing property damage or serious bodily injury. A warning label has been
affixed to the top of the filter and should not be removed. Keep safety labels in good condition and replace if
missing or illegible.

How the Filter works

The Aqua-Clear fiberglass sand filter is designed to operate for years with a minimum of maintenance and when
installed, operated and maintained in accordance with these instructions, it will provide years of trouble free
operation.
Dirt is collected in the filter as the water is directed into the top bulkhead. Dirty water flows into the diffuser at the
top of the tank and is directed downward into the top surface of the filter sand bed. The dirt is collected in the
sand bed and the clean water flows through the laterals and lower piping at the bottom of the filter up into the
lower bulkhead. Clean water is returned through the piping system into the irrigation system.
