SAFETY GUIDES / SPECIFICATIONS
• Read all steps and guides carefully before instal-
ling and using your undersink drinking water filter
system. Follow all steps exactly to correctly install.
Reading this manual will also help you to get all the
benefits from the undersink drinking water filter
system.
• Use the filter on a potable, safe-to- drink home
COLD water supply only. The filter cartridge will
not purify water, or make it safe to drink. DO NOT
use on HOT water (100°F, max.). Do not use with
water that is microbiologically unsafe or of un-
known quality without adequate disinfection be-
fore or after the system. This system is certified for
cyst reduction and may be used on disinfected wa-
ters that may contain filterable cysts.
• Check with your local public works department
for plumbing and sanitation codes. You must fol-

low their guides as you install the system. Follow
your local codes if they differ with guides in this
manual. In Massachusetts, plumbing codes of
Massachusetts shall be adhered to. Consult with
your licensed plumber.
• The undersink drinking water filter system
works on water pressures of 30 psi (minimum) to 100
psi (maximum). If your house water pressure is over
the maximum, install a pressure reducing valve in
the water supply pipe to the filter system.
• Read the other limits (pH, hardness, etc.) in the
specifications and be sure your water supply con-
forms.
• Protect the undersink drinking water filter sys-
tem and piping from freezing. Water freezing in the
housing will break it.
