NOTE: The Water Guardian Drinking Water Appliance is easy to install on most standard faucets.

And, it includes a feature that makes it easy to switch from filtered to unfiltered water.

Step 4 Remove the aerator or screen from the end of your faucet. The water at your sink should

be turned off.

Step 5 Attach the Diverter Valve directly to the faucet spout. If the threads of the Diverter Valve

don't match the threads of your faucet, use one of the adapters provided with your unit.

a. Faucets with Outside Threads: For most faucets with outside threads, the diverter

valve can be attached directly to the faucet. However, if the Diverter Valve is smaller

than your faucet, attach the adapter with inside threads directly to your faucet and then

attach the Diverter Valve to the adapter.

b. Faucets with Inside Threads: If your faucet has threads on the inside, attach one of the two adapters with out-

side threads (choose the appropriate size for your faucet) directly to your faucet and then attach the Diverter

Valve to the adapter.

c. Faucets with No Threads: If your faucet has no threads, you will need to contact your independent dealer.
d. Faucets with Odd Sized Threads: If your faucet does not fit any of the adapters provided with your unit, please

contact your independent dealer.

e. Faucets requiring more clearance for the connection, such as sprayer hose faucets, would use a long adapter

(MC257). See Step 5.e. on next page for installation instructions.

NOTE: The Water Guardian comes with a diverter valve and hose that connects the
drinking water system to your faucet.

Step 3 To connect the hose to the housing base, insert the tubing on the end of the

hose into the inlet and outlet ports.
a. Insert the larger hose into the bottom port (Inlet connector) by slowly

pushing the stem straight into the connector as far as it will go. Give a
second push to confirm that the stem is fully inserted.

b. Insert the smaller hose into the top port (Outlet connector) by slowly

pushing the stem straight into the connector as far as it will go. Give a
second push to confirm that the stem is fully inserted.
