Important Information
Read these instructions carefully and determine the location of all system components before
beginning installation.
Check all applicable plumbing, building, and electrical codes for installation compliance.
Install the system on the main water supply.
Systems that contain electronic components cannot be installed outside in uncovered areas.
WARNING:
If this or any other system is installed in a metal (conductive) plumbing system, i.e. copper or
galvanized metal, the plastic components of the system will interrupt the continuity of the
plumbing system. As a result any errant electricity from improperly grounded appliances
downstream or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground
through contiguous metal plumbing. Some homes may have been built in accordance with
building codes, which actually encouraged the grounding of electrical appliances through the
plumbing system. Consequently, the installation of a bypass consisting of the same material
as the existing plumbing, or a grounded "jumper wire" bridging the equipment and re-
establishing the contiguous conductive nature of the plumbing system must be installed prior
to your systems use.
CAUTION:
When adding a filtration/softening system to homes/buildings supplied by well water, the system should be
installed following the pressure tank. DO NOT USE this system for pneumatic or hydro pneumatic
applications. If you are using a booster pump, then install this system following the booster
pump. If you have questions, please call customer service.

Testing Chlorine Levels in Water
1. Put the carbon tank in bypass.
2. Turn on the nearest cold water faucet to the system.
3. Listen and watch the pump to make sure it is pumping. The pump should pulse and not run
continuously. If the water is off, the pump will stop.
4. Let the water run for 10 minutes.
5. After 10 minutes, use the chlorine test strip at the running cold water faucet to check the chlorine
level.
6. The optimum chlorine level reading is 3ppm on the test strip.
a. If the level is lower than 3ppm chlorine, remove the black clip from the ratio adjustment
slide. Turn the ratio adjustment slide 2 full revolutions in the positive direction. Replace the
black clip.
b. If it is higher than 3ppm, remove the black clip from the ratio adjustment slide. Turn the
ratio adjustment slide 2 full revolutions in the negative direction. Replace the black clip.

CAUTION:
Avoid high flow rates such as bathtub, utility sinks, hose bibs, multi-headed showers, body sprayers, or
anything that is considered high flow for the first 72 hours to avoid flow restrictions caused by carbon
blockage of the top basket inside the carbon tank.
Carbon dust may be released into the water lines of the house/building during the first few days of water
use after carbon tank installation. The carbon dust is harmless, but may give the water a gray appearance
that should diminish within a week or 10 days depending on water use.

Care and Cleaning
Sediment Filter
It is recommended that the Sediment Filter be replaced every 6-9 months depending on the amount of
sediment present in the water supply. If the system has been working properly and the pressure is
slowing, it may be time to change the Sediment Filter. Check the Sediment Filter and replace if necessary.
Replacing the Sediment Filter
Pre-Filter Cover
Sediment Filter
O-Ring
Blue Pre-Filter Housing
Stand Pipe
1. Turn off the main water supply to the Pre-Filter System and bypass all tanks.
2. Run a faucet (cold water) inside the house to relieve the pressure.
3. Unscrew the Blue Pre-Filter Housing clockwise using the supplied Pre-Filter Wrench.
4. Remove the existing Sediment Filter and discard.
5. Remove the O-Ring and wipe the groove and O-Ring clean. Lubricate the O-Ring with a coating of
clean silicone grease. Replace O-Ring and press the O-Ring down into the groove with two fingers.
Note: This step is important to ensure the proper filter seal. Make sure the O-Ring is seated level
in the groove. If the O-Ring appears damaged, stretched, or crimped it should be replaced at this
time.
6. Place a new Sediment Filter onto the Stand Pipe in the Blue Pre-Filter Housing.
7. Screw the Blue Pre-Filter Housing onto the Pre-Filter Cover.
8. Turn on main water supply slowly to allow the Pre-Filter System to fill with water and put tanks
back in service, out of bypass.
9. Check for leaks.
Chemical Injector Pump:
1. Change every six months (Kit A - part number P-SDP-A) - 2 o-rings and dosage piston. One extra
Kit A is included with your original purchase.
2. Change every year (Kit C- part number P-SDP-C) - 2 o-rings, dosage piston, and shaft.
Note: Spare kits for replacement purposes can be obtained by calling your customer service
representative at Pelican Water.
Solution Tank Refill — Chlorine
1. Check the level of the Solution Tank once per month. Do not let the liquid in the tank fall below
¼ full.
2. Fill the tank with 9 cups of household bleach and 35 gallons of treated water (water that has gone
through your filtration system). Replace the cap.

Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
Water leaking at the top of the tank around the head.
You may need to turn the head to tighten it. The tank
head is pre-installed hand-tight, do not overtighten the
head (just turn it snug).
The tank leans to one side or is not level.
If the tank is not level, lift the tank straight up 6 inches
and tap it on the ground until the tank stands vertical.
The bottom of the tank is round and the boot allows the
tank to stand upright.

Water pressure is slowing.
It is recommended that the Sediment Filter be replaced
every 6-9 months depending on the amount of
sediment present in the water supply. If the system has
been working properly and the pressure is slowing, it
may be time to change the Sediment Filter. Check the
Sediment Filter and replace if necessary.
Iron appears in the water.
Adjust settings on Chemical Injector Pump by removing
black clip on the adjustment ratio slide and turning the
adjustment ratio slide 2 full revolutions in the positive
direction. See graphic on page 18 to locate adjustment
ratio slide. If problem persists, increase backwash
frequency by one day.
Water appears grey or cloudy.
Water may appear grey or cloudy for the first seven to
ten days after installation due to extra carbon dust.
Water pressure is slowing immediately after installation. High flow rates such as bathtubs, utility sinks, hose
bibs, multi-headed showers, body sprayers, or anything
that is considered high flow for the first 72 hours should
be avoided. If you suspect a carbon blockage of the top
basket due to a high-flow situation within the first 72
hours of installation, turn off any running water for at
least 10 minutes. This will clear the blockage and you
can resume using water at low or normal flow rates.
