WINTERIZING DOSATRON INJECTORS

We typically associate cleaning with springtime, but when it comes to your Dosatron pumps, the experts recommend cleaning and performing maintenance when you are prepping your units for winter.

Read on for instructions on how to properly prepare you Dosatron unit(s) for the colder months.

Note to ALWAYS wear the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when servicing your Dosatron.

To decommission your Dosatron unit(s):

1. Start by turning off the water leading to the unit(s) and depressurizing the line by pressing the Air Bleed button at the top of the Dosatron(s). You can then disconnect the Dosatron(s) from the plumbing.

2. Loosen the injection stem nut and remove the injection stem assembly to drain any remaining water from the unit(s).

3. Remove the Upper Bell Housing and drain any water inside the body.

Take a look at this quick video for details on the steps mentioned above. Your Dosatron is now ready to be safely put away. Take advantage of this opportunity to do any cleaning, maintenance, and seal kit changes.

For cleaning:

Remove any buildup inside your Dosatron unit by submerging the unit and parts in a mixture of 1:1 water and vinegar for 24 hours. Rinse with clean plain water before placing the unit in storage.
