Proper Installation
Please read all instructions, specifications, and precautions before installing and using your water filter system.
Precautions:
For cold water use only.
After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation), it is recommended that the system be flushed thoroughly. Let water run
for 10 minutes before using.
The filter cartridges
used with this Filter System have a limited service life. Changes in taste, odor, and/or flow of the water being filtered
indicate that the cartridge should be replaced.
Before You Begin
Check under the sink to locate a solid wall surface to mount the Filter System.
NOTE: The Filter System must be mounted in a vertical position.
Determine if the Filter System will be used to filter water through the existing kitchen faucet (page 3) or through auxiliary
faucet (page 6) for filtered water.
Locate the cold water pipe under your sink and observe if it is a fl
exible hose or a rigid pipe (ex: plastic, metal, copper). Rigid pipes
may require cutting in order to make adequate space to install the fittings. Also determine if you have all appropriate fasteners and
adaptors to fit your plumbing.
Consult
your local plumbing codes and install accordingly.
This filter must be protected
from freezing, which can
cause cracking of the filter
and water leakage.
NOTICE
Because of the product’s limited service life and to prevent costly repairs or possible water damage, we strongly
recommend that the housing be replaced every five years. If the head of the filter has been in use for longer than
this period, it should be replaced immediately. Date the top of any new head to indicate the next recommended
replacement date.
NOTICE
KITCHEN FAUCET
This filter system provides stated contaminant reduction and capacity claims when used with an auxiliary faucet.
