right hole of Wall Mounting Bracket.
6 Attach the appropriate ttings (not included) securely into the ports on each side
of the Housing Heads.
7 Securely connect the water supply line inlet & outlet to the ttings in the Housing
Head. Make sure water supply inlet pipe is attached to the inlet port.
8 Using the wrench that came with your system, on both the softener and the lter
in turn, rotate the blue collar clockwise (to the left) to loosen the housing from the
head of the system and then disconnect the housing body from the head.
CAUTION: The housing will be heavy.
9 Remove the cartridge and the lter from their shrink wrap and foam packaging,
and then return the cartridge and the lter into their respective housings. Make
sure the holes on side of softener cartridge are located at the top . Check that
the O-rings are properly seated inside the Housing Body (see Figure #5). Match
the housing body to the head, t the blue collar to the head, attach the Collar

water supply. After a few minutes the sound of water owing through the

These screws must be
securely attached to studs.

WARNING: The inlet and outlet ports are tapered (NPT) and require thread seal
tape or sealant compound to prevent leakage. Be very careful, as over-tightening
the threading can split or break the port. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
11 Although the carbon lter has been pre-rinsed and cleaned prior to shipping,
you still may want to ush the system after the system has nished its initial
waiting period. The lter should be ushed through the cold water line. Open the
nearest cold water faucet; do not use a hot water faucet to ush out your carbon
lter. The cloudy appearance is small air bubbles and sometimes you may see a
slight blackish coloring - this is the normal cleaning of the small carbon particulates
from the lter.
Run the water slowly for a few minutes or until it runs clear. It is not unusual for
the water to appear cloudy with tiny air bubbles following installation. These
bubbles are normal and should clear up in a day or two.
12 If you have not taken the opportunity, spend a few minutes and register your
product to insure that you receive all of the latest product information and support.

We recommend that every time the lter is replaced or if the carbon lter
system is idle for a prolonged period of time (two weeks) that the home’s
plumbing and pipes are ushed thoroughly.
