Hynds Lifestyle Irrigation Filter Cleaning


Hynds Lifestyle wastewater treatment systems are fitted with an IP rated control and alarm system that alerts the homeowner to any service requirements or potential problems.

As a blocked irrigation filter is usually the cause of an alarm activation, the first step if the alarm is activated is to clean the system's irrigation filter by simply following the steps below. If the alarm is still activated 30 minutes after the irrigation filter has been cleaned out, please call Hynds Environmental on 0800 425 433 to speak to a service technician.

To keep the irrigation filter performing efficiently, we recommend that the homeowner clean the filter every 6-8 weeks.
1.
Turn power off to tank at main board. This
should be identified by your electrician.

Loosen disc by unscrewing top off in an
anti-clockwise direction.
