Planning the Installation
INSTALLATION LOCATION
To filter all household water, install the UltraEase™
Pivotal Whole Home Water Filtration System on the
household’s main incoming water pipe. For a home
with municipal water supply, install the filter between
the home’s incoming water supply and the water sof-
tener, if a water softener is being used (See Figure
3A). If the home has well water, reverse the order of
the filter and the water softener (See Figure 3B).
