Open the inlet valve and ll the system. Watch for leaks.
Open the outlet valve and a nearby cold water high demand
tap. Have the homeowner continue to run the cold water tap
for 30 minutes.
NOTE: If the winterization spring start up is combined with the
annual maintenance cleaning procedure, have the homeowner
continue to run a cold water tap for 60 minutes instead of 30
minutes. This is required to meet NSF drinking water standards
and to remove residual chlorine. The homeowner may notice a
chlorine taste/smell when a tap is rst opened for a day or two
following this procedure.
