FilterBalls are easy to install. In general, follow the steps recommended by the filter housing manufacturer. Always ensure twelve inches of FilterBalls above the laterals. You can mark this height on the standpipe with a marker to ensure proper fill. If the manufacturer recommends pea gravel to support the laterals, please follow that guidance.

Direction for start-up with Empty Tank and System Off:

  1. Remove filter sand if current vessel has sand in it.
  2. Clean the sand and debris that might be jammed in the lower manifold and laterals.
  3. Cover the standpipe with a plastic bag and add FilterBalls to the tank. Gently press the balls down to avoid water and dirt channeling around media.
  4. Set to Filter Mode and start filter system.
  5. Check pressure and record, backwash when pressure increases by 5-7 PSI.
