3 BEST WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR HEATER
1
Under no circumstances does
the EWS Heater Guard change
or alter the proper application
and/or routine maintenance
required or recommended by the
manufacturer of any product.
‡The filter gauge is based
on a pressure differential. It
can only be observed while
water is flowing through the
Heater Guard and will only
move when filter cartridge has
been prematurely clogged or
restricted. The gauge is only a
precaution to prevent problems.
