Countertop models sit on the counter next to the sink and are connected with a hose and diverter valve to your existing
faucet.
1. The water at your sink should be turned off.
2. remove the aerator or screen from the end of your faucet.
3. 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 outside 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 measure the inside neck diameter of the
faucet and provide this information to your Multipure Distributor or Multipure’s Customer service Department.They
will provide you with a special expandable adapter to fit your faucet in exchange for the adapters shipped with the
unit.
d. Faucets with Odd sized Threads: If your faucet does not fit any of the adapters provided with your unit, send your
threaded aerator or screen to your Multipure Distributor so that he can supply you with the correct adapter to meet
your needs. we recommend that you first call the Multipure Customer service Department at 800-622-9206, ext.175.
e. Faucets requiring more clearance for the connection, such as sprayer hose faucets, would use a long adapter
(*MC257). see installation instructions below.
