6.8.2 Flushing/bleeding via a flushing valve

BWT recommends that a flushing valve is fitted at the filter cartridge outlet. If a flushing valve
is installed in the filter system outlet, the filter can easily be bled and flushed via this flushing
valve. Observe the operating instructions for the flushing valve.

6.8.3 Flushing/bleeding via the water outlet hose

If flushing/bleeding is not possible using one of the methods mentioned above, the filter
system can also be bled via the water outlet hose.
Procedure:
1. Close the check valve.
2. Disconnect the water outlet hose from the appliance, e.g. coffee machine.
3. Attach the end of the hose to the 10 litre container below.
4. Open the check valve.
5. Flush/bleed the filter system until bubble-free and clear filtered water emerges
(for flushing water volume, see the recommendations in Section 6.8).
6. Close the check valve.
7. Refit the water outlet hose onto the appliance.
8. Open the check valve.
9. Check the filter system and all connections for leaks.
