Flange Set-upFlange Set-up

Flange Set-up

Lay pump out with electrical box on top & flange fitting to rear. Open box with flange parts

and layout. For each side of the pump’s flange fittings, you will need: 2 nuts, 2 bolts, 1

flange plate, 1 gasket & 1-3/4 female ball valve housing (FBVH). Note that on one side of

the flange plate is an indentation for the FBVH to set into. Set into position and place

gasket over this assembly. Next, set gasket side of assembly against flange fitting on pump

and secure with nuts and bolts provided. Leave fairly loose until other parts are added.

Repeat to other side of pump. (Note: On the FBVH is a flat head screw adjustment that

closes off the water supply by adjusting the screw perpendicular which closes the ball valve

should pump replacement be necessary. This adjustment set in the horizontal position

would be full open.)

Attaching Zone Valve & 3/4 Male ElbowAttaching Zone Valve & 3/4 Male Elbow

Attaching Zone Valve & 3/4 Male Elbow

The zone valve has two male fittings attached. The straight piece is on the incoming side of

the valve and the elbow on the outgoing side. Place Teflon tape on the incoming thread and

screw on outgoing side of pump onto FBVH. (Left side as pictured or see arrow on bottom

of pump) Next, place Teflon tape onto the male fitting on the shorter side of elbow. Screw

this into place on the FBVH attached to the incoming side of pump. Both of the male fittings

should be pointing upward, then nuts & bolts of the flange assembly should be tightened in

place.

same colored wire together with gray wirenuts provided. Receiver should be mounted toward front of cabinet.

(Range of transmitter is about 70’). If transmitter will activate system from short distance, but not from further away,

receiver may need to be relocated for better reception. Strapping receiver to front of drain trap facing outward will

optimize reception.

Installing Batteries to the Transmitter

Open transmitter with a small flat head screwdriver by inserting screwdriver into slot to release catch. Load

battery with negative side of battery toward spring. Carefully replace cover. When button is depressed, red indica-

tor light should turn on. Numbered jumper pins are inside the transmitter and receiver. The signal frequency can be

changed by removing the same numbered pins from both the receiver and transmitter. This should only be neces-This should only be neces-

3. Remove the shut-off valves that supply hot and cold water to the sink from the 1/2” copper

pipe. For ease of installation, leave the compression ring and nut from the angle stop on the

hot and cold water supplies.

4. Remove the compression ring and nut from the enclosed compression ﬁtting on the PF-T’s,

To install the Demand Button, follow these steps:

A. Drill a 5/8" hole into the desired location.

B. Insert the 5 foot gray wire from the controller through the back side of the hole and

connect it to the push button switch. Then, firmly insert the push button back into the

hole. Additional push button switches can be spliced into the same wires. It is

important to use a button comparable in quality to the button provided.

Once installed, turn water supply on and plug in the system. (Pump will automatically turn

itself on when it is initially plugged in without pushing the demand button). The Metlund

System will continue to operate until the sensor signals that hot water has arrived, then it will

automatically shut off. To test the system again, wait until pipes cool down. You may then test

the system by pushing the demand button, or to pre-test your system after plugging the unit

into 110v outlet, place a hot rag over thermosensor located to the right of the ump housing.

The unit will shut off immediately. Remove rag from sensor and test remote switches.

To operate the Metlund System from another location in the home, place remote button in

desired location. Push remote button (red activation light will light up when pushed), wait a

few seconds for system to cycle. You may now turn on hot water. NOTE: The MetlundNOTE: The Metlund
