INSTALLATION STEPS (cont.)

THREADED PIPE AND FITTINGS, FIG. 3

MATERIALS AND TOOLS NEEDED: For threaded

pipe installation you will need pipe wrenches, Teflon

tape or pipe joint compound, a union fitting and pipe

nipples. You may also need a pipe threading tool.

Connect the filter housing as typically shown in FIG.

3, page 5. Observe the following:

■ Use Teflon tape or pipe joint compound on all ex

ternal threads.

■

Do not turn pipe or fittings too tightly into the filter

head or you may break it.

■

It is important to have some movement in the sink

cold water pipe. This will allow you to tighten the

union fitting, without damaging the filter head, if

pipe lengths are not exact.

■

Before turning on the water supply remove the

sump from the filter head and install the filter car

tridge {see below).
