Installation Requirements

Decide where to install the Nature
• The vessel must be installed on a 43 cm (17")
length of pipe.
• The vessel must be installed on the existing pad or a
concrete slab to support the weight.
• The vessel must be installed as the last piece of
equipment in the circulation plumbing system just
before the pool with the Nature
the salt chlorinator side as the outlet. The inlet and
outlet are clearly marked on the vessel.
• The vessel must be installed downstream from the
heater or heater damage will occur.
• If the vessel is installed below the pool water
level, it must be installed with a check valve. The
check valve will isolate the vessel and prevent pool
draining during installation, cell change or cartridge
change.
• If plumbing size is greater than 5 cm (2") diameter
or if flow rates are greater than 455 lpm (120
gpm), the vessel must be installed in a bypass
configuration (see Section 3.5).
• If the vessel is used with water feature line system,
it must be installed in a split-return configuration or
vessel damage may occur (see Section 3.6).
• Never install the Nature
plumbing as pipe damage may occur. If brass or
bronze backwash valves, or other sensitive metallic
components are installed, consult your dealer for
recommendations on your particular system.

3.3 Anchoring the Vessel to the
Equipment Pad
In some areas building codes require that all appliances
be securely fastened to the equipment pad in order to
withstand high wind pressures created by hurricanes.
Please follow all local codes and standards.
NOTE Anchor screws and washers for securing the
vessel to the equipment pad are not included
with the vessel. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc.
("Zodiac") recommends that a 5.7 cm X 0.6 cm
(2¼" X ¼") long stainless steel concrete screw
and stainless steel flat washer are used to
mount each of the two (2) anchors in the base
to the equipment pad.
1. Manually snap on the two (2) clip-type anchor
brackets onto the side feet of the vessel as shown
in Figure 2. Make sure these anchor brackets are
attached firmly to the feet of the vessel.
2. Place the vessel on the pad and mark the location
of each hole of the anchor brackets on the concrete
pad.
3. Drill a 0.5 cm (5/32") hole in the concrete at
each of the two (2) hole locations of the anchor
brackets. The correct size concrete drill bit
should be obtained when the concrete screws are
purchased.
4. Install the screws and washers into each of the two
(2) holes to secure the vessel to the equipment pad.
Do not over-torque the screws.
