pipe and hand tighten. (fig. A)
3. Insert Gaskets into both ends of Hose. (fig. B)

(Note: If your Hose has a
hex-fitting on one end, it is recommended that
the end with the hex-fitting be threaded onto
the Filter Base.)

7. Prior to using for the first time, direct
Shower Wand into the drain and turn water
“ON”. Allow System to flush for at least
5 minutes or until water runs clear.

This will remove any fine, black carbon
particles left over from the manufacturing
process, expel trapped air and condition
the Cartridge for normal use. (This water
may be used to water plants.)
Congratulations! Your new WaterChef ®
Shower Filtration System is ready!

NOTE
For most installations plumber’s tape is NOT necessary.
However, if you experience leaking between your existing
shower pipe and the Housing Collar, simply apply two to three
wraps of provided plumber’s tape to shower pipe threads in
a clockwise direction and then reattach Filter Housing.
