ULTRA 2 UNDER SINK FILTER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This unit is not intended for use where water is microbiologically unsafe or with
water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the unit.
Step 1 - Choose a Location
Position the filter housing bracket on wall
of cabinet nearest cold water line
beneath sink. Leave at least 3” clearance
between the bottom of the filter housing
and the floor. Mark bracket slots on the
wall.
Step 2 - Install Filter Cartridges
For sanitization procedures, refer to
Instructions #1. Install the Carbon filter in
the (1) sump and 0.5 Micron Carbon
Briquette cartridge in the (2) sump.
Step 3 - Install Screws - Package A
Drill a 1/8” hole on each mark, then insert
the screws. Leave each screw
approximately 1/4” out from the wall for
mounting the head assembly later in the
installation.
Step 4 - Installing the Ultra 2 Faucet
The faucet may be installed into the hole
normally used for the sink sprayer. If you
have a sink sprayer installed and plan to
use it or do not have a hole, you will
have to drill a hole for the faucet. The
faucet will fit through a 7/16” hole or
larger.
For drilling through a metal sink, first
make a small indentation with a punch
where you want to install the faucet.
(Caution - Wear Eye Protection When
Drilling)
For drilling through porcelain, place a
piece of masking tape over the location,
then score with a punch before drilling.
Step 5 - Insert the Faucet - Package B
Remove the hardware from the faucet
stem for later use. Slide the large chrome
plated washer onto the stem, then the
large plastic washer. Place the faucet
stem through the hole on the sink.
Step 6 - Secure the Faucet
Slide the small rubber washer, then the
large metal washer and lock nut onto the
faucet stem. Tighten the lock nut to
secure the faucet in place.
