IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Shut off main water supply. Relieve pressure from water lines.
2. Remove housing from filter head and set aside.
3. Wrap PTFE tape around the 1” male compression adaptors (to the right, see
Figure 1) and install into filter head. Do not use pipe solvent (dope) as
some types may cause damage to plastic fittings. Do not overtighten as it
may cause damage to filter head. Damage to unit may result in property
damage due to water leakage.
4. Calculate proper spacing of components. Measure distance and mark pipe accordingly.
5. Cut pipe to length with pipe cutter.

CAUTION
WARNING
To reduce the risk associated with hazardous
voltage:
• If the home electrical system requires use of
the cold water system as an electrical safety
ground, a jumper
must be used to ensure a
sufficient ground connection across the filter
installation piping — refer installation to quali-
fied personnel. (see Figure 2)
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, remove filter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop below 40°F (4.4°C).
• SHUT OFF FUEL OR ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY TO WATER HEATER after water is shut off.
