TOOLS AND MATERIALS REQUIRED
• Safety glasses
• Adjustable wrench
• Tube cutter or utility knife
• Hand or electric drill (cordless recommended)
• File
• 1/4" drill bit
If sink does not have hole for separate faucet:
• Center punch
• 3/4" drill bit or hole saw
• 3/32" drill bit
System must be protected against freezing, which
can cause cracking of the filter and water leakage.
NOTE:
• For cold water use only.
• Make certain that installation complies with all state and
local laws and regulations.
• The system must be maintained according to
manufacturer’s recommendations, including
replacement of filter cartridges. The contaminants or
other substances removed or reduced by the selected
cartridge are not necessarily in your water. Ask your
local water municipality for a copy of their water
analysis, or have your water tested by a reputable water
testing lab.
• After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a
vacation) it is recommended that the system be flushed
thoroughly. Let water run for 5–6 minutes before using.
• The filter cartridges used with this system have a
limited service life. Changes in taste, odor, and/or flow
of the water being filtered indicate the cartridge should
be replaced.

INSTALLATION
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
NOTE:
• For standard under-sink installation on 1/2" 14 NPS
threads or 3/8" x 3/8" compression
• Please read all instructions and precautions before
installing and using your Filtration System
• Numbered diagrams correspond with numbered steps
1. Installing the Water Supply Adapter
The supply adapter fits 1/2"-14 NPS supply threads or
3/8" x 3/8" compression. If local codes permit, it may be used
to connect the system to the cold water supply line. If local
codes do not permit the use of the supply adapter, alternate
connectors can be obtained from your local supplier.
A. Turn off cold water supply line. If cold water line does not
have a shut-off valve under the sink, you should install one.
B. Turn on the cold water faucet and allow all water to drain
from line.
C. Disconnect riser cold water supply valve.
D. Ensure the sealing gasket is fully seated into the feed
adapter valve female thread.
E. Install feed adapter valve onto supply valve. Hand tighten
only.
F. Connect the riser to the feed adapter valve.
NOTE: See Figures 1G-1H for configuring the feed adapter to
3/8" x 3/8" compression connections.
2. Selecting the Faucet Location
NOTE: The drinking water faucet should be positioned with
function, convenience, and appearance in mind. An
adequate flat area is required to allow faucet base to
rest securely. The faucet fits through a 3/4" hole. Most
sinks have pre-drilled 1-3⁄8" or 1-1⁄2" diameter holes
that may be used for faucet installation. If these predrilled holes cannot be used or are in an inconvenient
location, it will be necessary to drill a 3/4" hole in the
sink to accommodate the faucet.
This procedure may generate dust which can cause
severe irritation if inhaled or come in contact with
the eyes. The use of safety glasses and respirator
for this procedure is recommended.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-
PORCELAIN SINK. If you have an all-porcelain sink,
mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer hole or drill
through countertop next to sink.
When drilling through a countertop, make sure the
area below the drilled area is free of wiring and
piping. Make certain you have ample room to make
the proper connections to the bottom of the faucet.
Do not drill through a countertop that is more than
1" thick.
Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble,
granite or similar countertop. Consult a plumber
or the countertop manufacturer for advice or
assistance.
A. Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal
shavings, parts, or tools from falling down the drain.
B. Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to prevent
scratches if drill bit slips.
C. Mark hole with center punch. Use a 1/4" drill bit to drill
pilot hole.
D. Use a 3/4" drill bit and drill a hole completely through sink.
E. Smooth rough edges with a file.

3. Mounting the Faucet
A. Apply 3-5 wraps of plumber tape to faucet stem.
B. Assemble faucet as shown in Figure 3.
C. Screw quick connector onto threaded end of faucet stem.
D. Place a mark 5/8" from one end of the blue tubing. Wet the
end of the 3/8" tube and push into bottom of connector. The
5/8" mark should be flush with the collar of the connector.
NOTE: To remove the tube, push on the fittings' collar and pull
the tube out.
E. Holding the faucet, feed the tubing through the hole in the
sink. Position the faucet handle at a desired location.
F. Center the faucet and slip slotted disc between the bottom
of the counter or sink and lock washer. Tighten the stem
nut with a wrench until it is tight.
G. Firmly insert spout into faucet base.
4. Mounting the System
A. Select a location under the sink, or other suitable area
where the system will be installed.
NOTE: The system carton can be used to determine the
operational footprint required for installation of the
system and replacement cartridges. (Figure 4a)
B. Mount the system vertically. Ensure mounting is level.
Place a pencil mark in the upper slots of the bracket
mounting holes. (Figure 4b). Alternate mounting option: If
mounting the system near the floor, place the pencil marks
above each of the mounting holes on the bracket to ensure
enough space resides below the cartridge and the floor for
cartridge replacement (Figure 4c). Use the 3/32" drill bit to
create pilot holes for mounting.
The system should be mounted to a firm, solid
surface that is able to support the weight of the
system.
