TYPICAL UNDER SINK LOCATION
The Two-Stage Drinking Water Filter housing is normally located under the kitchen and/or bathroom sink, to filter the cold drinking water. See Figure 2.
CHECK SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Check size and position of items for proper installation
into location chosen.
TOOLS NEEDED
Review the tools needed list. See Figure 1. Gather needed tools before proceeding with the installation. Read
and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
IMPORTANT: A 1-1/4” dia. hole is needed to mount the
filtered water faucet. To avoid damaging the sink, consult a qualified plumber or installer for drilling procedures in porcelain or stainless steel.
Figure 1
NOTE: Allow a minimum space of 1-1/2” under the
system for removing the sumps (to change cartridges).
NOTE: To change the filter cartridge,
turn off the water and release pressure
by opening the faucet. A nearby shutoff
is convenient. Most sinks already have
shutoff valves on the supply pipes.
