20
NOTES:
 Always use ozone resistant plumbing such as Schedule 40 or 80 PVC pipe and
fittings, PVC Braided Hose and fittings, or PEX hose with Kynar fittings
between the ozone system discharge and the activated carbon filter.
 Copper brass or other oxidizable plumbing parts components should only be
used after an activated carbon filter.
 Always check plumbing connections to ensure there is nothing loose to cause
a leak
 Always ensure that the Gas-off is installed properly and securely.
 Always install an activated carbon filter downstream from the ozone system.
 In some cases two post filters are required
 Some Systems DO NOT have a water column and instead use a backflow
preventer “check valve” in line.

In addition to the system supplied by Aclarus, the following materials are, or may be,
required for installation:
 Pressure regulator (if required)
 Teflon tape
 Associated pipe, fittings, primer and glue for connecting of system to existing
plumbing
 Installation tools such as pipe cutter, channel locks, etc
NOTE:
 Use only ozone compatible plumbing components from the discharge of the
Aclarus Ozone Water System to the Activated Carbon filter.
 Schedule 40 or 80 PVC (pipe or braided hose) and/or PEX with ozone
compatible fittings such as poly inserts.
