n) Install the Geoflow WASTEFLOW dripline from the supply line trench to the painted line, approximately 6"to 10"deep as specified. Upon reaching the painted line, pull the plow out of the ground and cut the dripline 1'above the ground. Tape the end of the dripline toprevent debris from entering. Continue this process until the required footage of pipe is installed. Geoflow dripline must be spaced according to specification (2 ft. is standard). Depth of burial of dripline must be consistent throughout the field.Take care not to get dirt into the lines. o) Install the supply header with tees lined up at each Geoflow line. Hook up the Geoflow lines to the supply header. Do not glue WASTEFLOW dripline. Installing Lockslip fittings a) Hold the fitting in one hand and position the tubing with the other hand. b) Move the sleeve back,and push the tubing onto the exposed stem as far as possible. c) Push the sleeve out over the tubing and thread the sleeve onto tubing, as though tightening a nut to a bolt. Hand tighten. Do not use tools. P) Install the Vortex filter and filter flush valve, or install the pre-assembled Headworks between the field and the pump tank on the supply line. *Insulate the box in freezing conditions. q) If using a pressure regulator, install it downstream of the filter or Headworks,just ahead of the dispersal field, on the supply line.Although the pressure regulator can be buried directly into the soil, it is preferable to install it inside a small valve box for easy access. *Insulate the box in freezing conditions. r) Install the floats in the dosing tank and wire up to the timer control. The timer control should be set to pump no more than the design flow, do not set to match the treatment capacity. s) Install the pump, Fill the dosing tank with fresh water and turn on the pump. Check for flow out the ends of all of the Geoflow lines. Let the pump run for about five minutes to flush out any dirt. Shut off the pump and tape the ends of the lines. t) Dig the return header ditch along the line painted on the ground and back to the pre-treatment tank. Start the return header at the farthest end from the dosing tank. The return line must have slope back to the treatment tank or septic tank. u) Install the return header and connect all of the Geoflow lines. Care must be taken not to kink the dripline. v) Install air vacuum breakers at the highest points in the dispersal field. Use pipe dope or Teflon tape and hand tighten. w) Install a ball or solenoid field flush valve on the return line to the pretreatment or pump tank unless a pre-assembled Wasteflow Headworks is being used. If a Headworks was installed on the supply line, connect the return line back through the Headworks box. Open the field flush valve and turn on the pump to flush lines then close the valve and check the field and all piping and connections for leaks.Turn off the system x) Turn on the pump and check the pressure at the air vacuum breaker(s). It should be between 15 to 45 PSI. Check the pressure in the WASTEFLOW Headworks if used. It should be five psi or higher. If using a manual valve for field flushing, crack it open until at least one PSI is lost or design pressure is reached and leave in that position. y) Check the filter for construction debris and clean. Z) Provide owner with final as-built diagrams, flow measurements and pressure readings at startup. January 2004 17
