The Carver Crystal filter is a high quality product designed to bring water to your caravan in a convenient and efficient manner. The system includes a special two stage filter which removes unpleasant tastes, smells and colouring to give clear, fresh tasting water.

The first stage is a line filter paper to retain small solids. The second stage is a bed of silverised activated carbon, which removes chlorine, tastes and smells etc. by absorption and by mechanical filtration reduces algae and bacteria. Bacteria retained are then destroyed by the silver content. This action also prevents bacteriological growth in the filter.

The thames pump is detachable from the Crystal Filter for security and while touring. A waterway plug is available to blank off the inlet when the pump is not attached.

To connect the pump simply align the plug with the socket and push it onto position. This makes both the water and electric connections. Turn the security clip anti-clockwise to lock the connector plug into place. The pump system has been designed so that it cannot be fitted incorrectly.

The winterised Crystal Filter

If caravanning in the winter there is a possibility that the water in the outside container will freeze. It is therefore recommended that a winterised system is fitted. This is achieved by simply fitting a Carver compact to the inside of the Caravan in a suitable place such as the washroom or kitchen. The pump and the water container can then be used outside or inside as required. The waterway plug will be fitted to the housing not being used.

During the winter when the caravan or motor home is not in use, it is advisable to remove the filter to avoid any retained water within the filter freezing.

NOTE – All switches and wiring in the pump circuit must be rated at a minimum of 5 Amp.

Raise the lid, clean both the water socket and the plug of the pump assembly.

Plug the pump assembly into the socket. Turn the top security clip anti-clockwise and turn the bottom security clip clockwise to lock the plug into place.

Place the pump into the water container, ensuring that it is fully submerged before operating the system. A dust cover is available to stop contaminates falling into the water container. To remove the pump assembly from the Crystal filter, release the security clips and pull the hose adaptor by using the finger grips provided. DO NOT REMOVE BY PULLING THE HOSE OR ELECTRICAL CABLE.
