STEP 4: (Continued)
4.2) Do not braze/solder copper fittings within 18" of Home Guard
pump body.
4.3) When assembling threaded fittings into the Home Guard
use PTFE (Teflon
) sealing tape. Take special care to keep any debris (including pieces of tape) from entering
®
the inlet fitting that might get caught in the operating valve.
4.4) The Home Guard
®
with ¾" PEX, CPVC, or copper pipe. The fitting must be installed on the ¾" NPT thread of the pump inlet fitting.
Caution must be used when installing the fitting to not over tighten the inlet fitting and crack the body.
Using a backup wrench, hold the inlet fitting while tightening the Push-to-Connect fitting. If the Push-to-
Connect fitting is not used, the same precaution must be used when installing any other fitting to the inlet fitting.
4.5) Purge the water line prior to connecting to the Home Guard
and clog the operating valve.
4.6) If using the Push-to-Connect fitting, cut the tube so that the ends are square. Ensure that there are no burrs or
damage to the cut end. Once the tubing end is cut square and clean, scribe a depth mark on the outside of the
tubing 1" from the end. Insert the tube through the release collar to rest against the grab ring. Push the tube
firmly with a slight twisting action until it reaches the tube stop. The depth mark should be up to the end of the
release collar. The tube liner is not necessary with CPVC or Copper tubing, and may be removed based on
preference or local codes. The tube liner can be easily removed by pulling it out with a needle nosed pliers.
4.7) Once the pump has been installed and the municipal water source connected, open the municipal water source
valve and the supply line valve. Inspect the valve body and all connections looking for leaks. Close the
municipal water valve and fix any leaks before operating the pump.
STEP 5: Testing of Pump Operation
5.1) Unplug the primary pump so that it does not start.
5.2) Fill the sump with water until the Home Guard
to shut off properly.
5.3) Verify that the pump starts and stops at the desired ON/OFF points.
5.4) Verify that there are no leaks in the discharge line.
5.5) If adjustment is necessary, raise or lower the stops according to STEP 2.
5.6) If the pump is not operating properly after following the above steps, refer to the Troubleshooting guide.
5.7) When finished testing, plug primary pump back into AC receptacle.
5.8) Adjust alarm reed switch (optional) to desired level, if necessary. Refer to FM2571 for Alarm System Instructions.
Be sure to install 9V battery in Alarm Panel.

WATER PRESSURE:

20 PSI minimum with valve open.
80 PSI maximum with valve open.
100 PSI maximum with valve closed.
EFFICIENCY:
The pumping capacity increases with household water pressure and flow.
At an eight-foot static head and a supply pressure of 20 PSI at water supply inlet with water flowing, it takes one (1)
gallon of supply water to remove one gallon from the sump. As the supply pressure increases with the static head
constant, less supply water is required.
