INSTALLATION (continued)
Mounting the System
The UFL system comes with a Mounting Bracket to
mount the system securely. When mounting the system,
pay attention to the following guidelines:
• Note the location of the water supply, drain, and
an appropriate electrical outlet when choosing a
mounting location.
• Allow sufficient access for cartridge replacement.
The UFL-420 system should be mounted with 20
inches below the unit to allow proper access when
changing cartridges. The UFL-440 system should
be mounted with 40 inches below the unit.
• Mount the system near but NOT above an appropri-
ate electrical outlet.
• Do NOT mount the system above any electrical
equipment or items that may be damaged if they
get wet.
• Mount the system near a drain for flushing opera-
tions.
• Mount the system before all consumable water
filtration processes.
• Secure the Mounting Brackets into wall studs or
with the appropriate heavy duty mounting hardware.
The system is pre-assembled to Mounting Brackets.
The Mounting Brackets have mounting holes secure the
bottom of the system to the wall.

Inlet Water Plumbing
The Inlet water plumbing line should be 1” NPT or
larger. A shutoff valve (not supplied) should be installed
in the line leading to the system. The valve should be
mounted close to the system inlet and sized properly for
the inlet plumbing line.
An optional “T” or Cross Fitting with cap or plug can be
installed between the Inlet Valve and the System Inlet.
This fitting can be used for draining and sanitizing the
system and downstream plumbing.
The system should only be connected to the cold water
line.
Before connecting the fitting to the System Inlet, the
plumbing to the system must be flushed clear of all
debris. Hold a bucket at the inlet water line and slowly
open the Inlet Water Valve. Allow the pipe to flush until
all debris is removed.
