Installation and Operation Guide
USING THE EVERPURE® JT CARTRIDGE FOR SANITIZING
1. Grasp the tip of the outlet tower (center, top of the cartridge and pull out gently (Figure 1).
The entire central plug with the long tube attached will come out, leaving a hole as big as
your thumb.
2. Add about a teaspoon of laundry bleach (5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution) to the empty
flushing cartridge through the hole in the top.
3. Lubricate O-ring with a high quality silicone lubricant. Replace the central plug assembly
and insert the flushing cartridge into the installed head.
4. After inserting the flushing cartridge in the head and opening the shut-off valve before the
system, slowly open the product water line and run water to drain until the smell of chlorine
is strong. Then immediately shut off the water and wait a period of at least half an hour.
5. The user should be instructed not to use the processed water for at least half an hour to
allow adequate disinfection time. The water should be allowed to run for about 5 minutes to
purge the installation of chlorine and the cartridge of air.
6. Remove the flushing cartridge and insert a new Everpure cartridge(s).
SCALEKLEEN INSTRUCTIONS FOR ICE MACHINES
1. Turn off the ice machine, and drain the sump.

Figure 1
2. Mix one 7-ounce packet of ScaleKleen in one quart of hot water and pour the solution into
the ice machine sump.
3. Allow the sump to fill so that the pump is not starved of water.
NOTE: Do not turn on, the “REFRIGERATE” cycle. ScaleKleen works most effectively when
mixed with hot water. The colder the water; the longer it takes to dissolve the scale.
4. Turn the switch to the “PUMP” mode and allow water to recirculate with ScaleKleen for 20
minutes.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 if scale deposits are still visible.
6. Drain and rinse the sump thoroughly with clean water to remove any remaining traces of
ScaleKleen.
7. Check the pH of the water in the sump. If it is within one pH unit of the influent tap water;
then the ScaleKleen has been sufficiently rinsed out. (NOTE: an inexpensive pH test kit is
available from your Everpure dealer).
8. Turn the ice machine on to the “ICE” mode and place it back in service.
SCALEKLEEN INSTRUCTIONS FOR VENDING MACHINES
1. Pour one-half to one 2.2 lb. packet of ScaleKleen into the JT Cartridge. Remove the existing
4H filter cartridge and insert the JT Cartridge in the filter head. Vend several cups of water
to draw the ScaleKleen into the hot water in the tank. Wait 30 to 40 minutes then rinse the
tank thoroughly with cold water.
2. After all de-scaling has been completed, remove the JT Cartridge, rinse it thoroughly with
cold water and install a new Everpure 4H filter cartridge.
Batch Treatment
1. Heat water to almost boiling.
2. Slowly pour ScaleKleen into treatment tank. Stir to dissolve. Use one 2.2 lb. packet for
every five gallons of water.
3. Wait 30 to 40 minutes. Check to see that all the scale is gone. Rinse the tank thoroughly
with cold water.

SCALEKLEEN INSTRUCTIONS FOR STEAMERS WITH EXISTING
EVERPURE FILTER
1. Remove and discard the existing Everpure filter cartridge from the
steamer.
2. For a small steamer (less than 10KW or 100,000 BTU’s), use
two 2.2 lb. (two kilogram) packages of ScaleKleen. For a large
steamer (greater than 10KW or 100,000 BTU’s), use four 2.2 lb.
(four kilogram) packages of ScaleKleen. For regularly scheduled
maintenance, reduce these quantities in half.
3. Remove the top plug assembly from the Everpure JT Cartridge.
NOTE: The JT Cartridge is designed to hold a maximum of one 2.2
lb. (one kilogram) package of ScaleKleen.
4. Cut one corner of the ScaleKleen package, and pour the contents
directly into the JT Cartridge. Once the ScaleKleen is in the
cartridge, carefully reinsert the top plug assembly.
NOTE: Ensure that the plug assembly is seated to the lugged outer
cap. If not, placement of the JT Cartridge into the head will be
hindered.
As an alternative, you can dissolve one 2.2 lb. (one kilogram) package
of ScaleKleen in warm water. Carefully pour the solution into the JT
Cartridge. Repeat this step until all of the solution has been used.
5. Insert the filled JT Cartridge into the head assembly, and turn the
shut-off valve to the fully opened position.
6. Flush the cartridge for a minimum of 1 gallon (a flow rate of 0.5
GPM would require 2 minutes) to transfer the ScaleKleen into the
boiler tank to be de-scaled.
7. Turn the steamer on. Once the steamer reaches operating
temperature, allow 30 minutes for the ScaleKleen to remove the
scale, then turn the steamer off.
8. Blowdown (flush) the boiler until the pH of the effluent is within one
pH unit of the incoming (influent) water.
9. Once the steamer has been flushed out, it can be placed back into
service.
10. After all de-scaling has been completed, remove the JT Cartridge
and install a new Everpure filter cartridge.
SCALEKLEEN INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRIP COFFEE MAKERS
1. Remove and discard the existing Everpure filter cartridge.
2. For coffee makers brewing one pot (1/2 gallon) per cycle, use
one 2.2 lb. (one kilogram) package of ScaleKleen. For regularly
scheduled maintenance, reduce these quantities in half.
3. Remove the top plug assembly from the Everpure JT Cartridge.
NOTE: The JT Cartridge is designed to hold a maximum of one 2.2
lb. (one kilogram) package of ScaleKleen.
4. Cut one corner of the ScaleKleen package, and pour the contents
directly into the JT Cartridge. Once the ScaleKleen is in the
cartridge, carefully reinsert the top plug assembly.
NOTE: Ensure that the plug assembly is seated to the lugged outer
cap. If not, placement of the JT Cartridge into the head will be
hindered.
As an alternative, you can dissolve one 2.2 lb. (one kilogram) package
of ScaleKleen in warm water. Carefully pour the solution into the JT
Cartridge. Repeat this step until all of the solution has been used.
5. Insert the filled JT Cartridge into the head assembly, and turn the
shut-off valve to the fully opened position.
6. Remove the filter basket and spray head, then dump the coffee
grounds from the machine. Place the spray head in the target
coffee pot.
7. Cycle the coffee maker once, vending one pot. Let it sit for 30
minutes. The spray head in the pot will also be cleaned.
8. After 30 minutes, cycle the coffee maker with 10 pots of fresh
water. This will flush the ScaleKleen from the boiler and water
lines. After the tenth pot, check the pH of the hot water. When
the pH of the hot water is within one pH unit of the incoming cold
water, the ScaleKleen is flushed out. Reassemble the spray head to
the coffee maker.
NOTE: If there is a hot water tap available, flush one pot through to
de-lime tap.
9. Once the coffee maker has been flushed out, it can be placed back
into service.
10. After all de-scaling has been completed, remove the JT Cartridge
and install a new Everpure filter cartridge.
CAUTION: In case of contact with eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly
with water. Avoid prolonged contact with stainless
steel surfaces. Contains salt which may cause surface
discoloration. Spots may be removed with a mild scouring
agent.
IF USING PH TEST KIT
1. Using one test strip, test and record the pH of the incoming water.
2. Using one test strip, test and record the pH of the product water
flowing from the de-scaled appliance.
3. When the pH of the outgoing product water is within one pH unit of
the incoming water, the ScaleKleen has been sufficiently flushed
out and the appliance can be placed back into service.
NOTE: Flushing the appliance with fresh water will raise the pH of
the product water.
