Use and Care Manual

Instructions below are for a whole house

(point of entry) filtration set-up:

Shut off water to house or residence.

Relieve water pressure by opening a faucet. Prepare for any leakage from installation

(tap) point.

Install filtration system at tap point. (Typically between water main and water heater)

(a) Mount bracket to wall using appropriate hardware (make sure screws are

secured to material capable of supporting the weight of the system)

(b) Install an optional emergency shut off/filter change valve onto ‘feed’ side.

This is available at hardware stores or from your dealer.

first).

(d) Connect other side of filtration system to product side of tap point. This is the

side that feeds the house with purified water.

Turn water on slowly until water comes out of the filter and check for leaks (remember

to shut off water before attempting to repair leaks).

Filters may need to be flushed for approximately five (5) gallons of water before use in

order to remove any loose carbon dust. Also, water heater will need to be drained and

re-filled before hot water will be noticeably improved.

Carbon filter has approximate life of 25,000 gallons at 7 GPM (gallons per minute) or 420

GPH (gallons per hour) (50,000 gallon filter life with upgraded KDF/85 carbon filter).

The sediment pre-filter should be cleaned regularly and changed annually. The inlet

pressure gauge measures house pressure while the outlet gauge measures filter system’s

pressure. If the outlet gauge reading climbs to 30% above the inlet gauge reading, this

indicates the filters are starting to get clogged and need to be changed. Replacements are

available from your dealer.
