CAUTION
IMPORTANT NOTES
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
•
Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and Use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Protect from freezing. Drain filter when temperatures drop below 40°F (4.4°C).
• Do not install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110° F (43.3° C).
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this sys-
tem is 100°F (37.8°C).
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds psi
(552 kPa), you
must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are
uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you
must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how
to check for this condition.
• Where a backflow prevention device is installed on a water system, a device for controlling pres-
sure due to thermal expansion must be installed.
• Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near system, cartridges, plastic fittings or
plastic plumbing.
• On plastic fittings, never use pipe sealant or pipe dope. Use PTFE thread tape only, pipe dope
properties may deteriorate plastic.
• Take care when using pliers or pipe wrenches to tighten plastic fittings, as damage may occur if
over tightening occurs.
• Do not install in direct sunlight or outdoors.
• Do not install near water pipes which will be in path of a drilling tool when selecting the position to
mount the bracket.
• Mount system in such a position as to prevent it from being struck by other items used in the area
of installation.
• Ensure that the location and fasteners will support the weight of the system when installed and
full of water.
• Ensure all tubing and fittings are secure and free of leaks.
• The disposable filter cartridge MUST be replaced every six months, at the rated capacity or
sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
• Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.
• Allow a minimum of 7 1/2” (19.5 cm) clear space under filter to facilitate cartridge change.
• Install with the inlet and outlet ports as labeled. Make sure not to reverse connections.
• Do not crimp copper tubing.
