CAUT ION

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.

• Before starting installation, shut off main water supply and drain pipes.

• Protect from freezing, remove fi lter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop below 40 °F (4.4 °C).

• Do not install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110 °F (43.3 °C).

• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this system is 100 °F (37.8 °C).

• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi (552 kPa), you must install a pressure

limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.

• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact

a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.

• Any non-metallic fi ttings used in the installations must be of adequate rating for the line pressure.

• Where a backfl ow prevention device is installed on a water system, a device for controlling pressure due to thermal expansion must be installed.

• Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near system, cartridges, plastic fi ttings or plastic plumbing.

• On plastic fi ttings, never use pipe sealant or pipe dope. Use PTFE thread tape only, pipe dope properties may deteriorate plastic.

• Take care when using pliers or pipe wrenches to tighten plastic fi ttings, as damage may occur if over tightening occurs.

• Do not install in direct sunlight or outdoors.

• Do not install near water pipes which will be in path of a drilling tool when selecting the position to mount the bracket.

• Mount system in such a position as to prevent it from being struck by other items used in the area of installation.

• Ensure that the location and fasteners will support the weight of the system when installed and full of water.

• Ensure all tubing and fi ttings are secure and free of leaks.

• Do not install unit if collet is missing. Contact your sales representative if collets are missing from any fi ttings.

• The disposable fi lter cartridge(s) MUST be replaced every 12 months, at the rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable drop in pressure occurs.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.

• Allow a minimum of 3" (7.6 cm) clear space under fi lter to facilitate cartridge change.

• Install with the inlet and outlet ports as labeled. Make sure not to reverse connections.

• Some local codes may require the use of a licensed plumber or certifi ed installer when disrupting a potable water line.
