Preventative maintenance for the AM is
simple. Follow these steps to allow the unit
to operate efficiently.
1. Clean the condenser once a year using a
brush or vacuum.
2. Check and clean the inlet water valve
screen as needed to assure proper water
flow.
*Remember that the original fitting is a 3/4” BSP
and the use of a standard MPT fitting will
damage the threads. In May of 2003, this fitting
was changed to 3/8” male flare. After August
and September of 2003, this fitting was changed
to a 1/2" FPT.
3. Clean and sanitize the water distribution
system annually using the recommended
cleaner. (See the next page for detailed
information on cleaning the water
system)
4. Wipe down the exterior using a soft cloth
and neutral cleaner.
The AM series uses a magnetic pump. This
style of pump allows the water portion of the
pump to be completely sealed from the
motor. This eliminates the need for a
mechanical seal and eliminates the
possibility of water entering the pump
through the pump end.
If the pump does not pump and is being
energized then remove the four screws from
the front of the pump and check for any
debris that may be binding the impeller
