System startup
1. With a towel or bucket underneath, slowly turn on the Cold Water
Valve, and feel the vibration and noise of the water flow. If your
water pressure is high, DO NOT turn the Inlet Water Valve all the
way up, but sparingly to a level position.
2. If it leaks, check if the tubing is fully inserted into the quick-fitting
and that the cartridges are properly in position.
3. Turn on the Drinking Faucet. Water should start flowing. Let it run
for 5-15 minutes or until all of the carbon particles are flushed out
and the water turns clear. The water filter is now ready for use.
Write down the current date on the cartridge for future reference.
The cartridge set has a capacity of 1,100 gallons or a life span of
about 6-9 months depending on water quality and usage.
Usage Recommendations
• This device will work best at a pressure range of 15-60 psi. It’s
normal for the device to vibrate and make a
light noise when producing water.
• If the device won’t be used for an extended
period, shut off the power supply and close
the three-way valve. Allow the water to run
for 3-5 minutes before using again.
• A pretreatment device may be installed in
front of the main device if the incoming
water doesn't meet municipal standards
(i.e., high quantities of mud and sand,
residual chlorine, etc.)
• An additional device to increase or lower
pressure may need to be installed if the
water pressure is higher or lower than the
recommended level. Note: When the
environment temperature is low, the flow rate will naturally drop.
• If the device appears to be faulty, cut off the
water supply immediately and call iSpring at
678-261-7611.
