Tools & Equipment Required for Installation
Installation Procedure
Go to section 3.4 of the manual and refer to the notes prior to starting
the installation.
• To install the pitot tube that will make the inlet connection from the
pool to the feeder, choose a location on the main pool recirculation
piping on the discharge side of the pool pump but upstream of the
pool filter(s).
• To install the pitot tube that will make the chlorine injection con-
nection from the feeder to the pool piping, choose a location on
the main pool recirculation piping downstream of the pool filter(s),
and heater (if available), but before the acid or CO
2
injection point.
Make sure the pool pump is off and shut isolation valves from the pool
piping so that it is dry.
1. Drill a 1 ½” (38.1 mm) hole anywhere on the top half of the pipe.
Caution: Do not drill on the bottom half of the pipe. Excess debris
may enter your feeder.
2. Use a 1 ¼” pipe tap and channel locks to tap threads in the hole
3. Select part 73141 for 2 ½” pool piping or part 73142 for 3” pool
piping.
a. Apply plumbers tape to both exposed threads on the pitot
tube
4. Thread the pitot tube as far into the pool pipe as possible prefer-
ably, until it touches the inside of the pipe and cannot rotate any
further. Once the maximum depth has been reached, back out the
pitot tube until the notch aligns with:
a. Directly upstream of the pool pipe for the inlet connection to
the feeder
b. Directly downstream of the pool pipe for the chlorine injec-
tion connection from the feeder to the pool
