Step 2 – Calibration

The system is now flushed, so now you need to calibrate the valves.

1. Adjust all valves throughout the system. Start at the pump and work towards the end of the system. At each point, adjust the valves to match the pressure indicated on the design.

 

 

2. Close the laterals or, if using a flushing manifold, close the valves of the flushing manifold.
