Installation

Puretec Customer Service

Thank you for purchasing Puretec Z1 Tripla water filter system. Your system is a proven performer manufactured from only quality materials and components and will give years of ‘spring fresh’ water free of impurities if maintained properly.

The Puretec Z1 system cartridges need replacing regularly to maintain optimum performance. This is a simple procedure when following instructions. For cartridge replacements contact your nearest Puretec stockist.

The system is designed for metropolitan supply water but can be used in other situations. For other types of water supply please contact your local Puretec stockist or call our Puretec Customer Service Helpline prior to installing the tap.

Customer Service Helpline 1300 140 140 (Australia) 0800 130 140 (New Zealand).

Caution: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. This product must be installed in accordance with local plumbing regulations by a licensed plumber.

Operation

The Puretec Z1 Tripla system is designed to run economically for many years, dependent on the initial installation and periodical maintenance.

Flush systems for 10 minutes after any period of non-use more than 2 days. For a period of non-use of 2 weeks or more, it may be necessary to replace cartridge.

Chrome Plated Surface - should only be cleaned with liquid detergent or soap and water.

Under no circumstance should any abrasive or acid base cleaning agents be used.

Cartridge Replacement

To maintain the high quality of the purified water the cartridges need changing every 6 months (dependent on water quality and usage).

When replacing cartridge, ensure you reset the LED reminder light by removing/replacing the battery from the rubber seat. Please refer to page 8 for a detailed diagram.

Order Z1-R for a replacement cartridge to suit your Z1 Tripla system.

Installation Guide

Servicing

Periodically clean the aerator for any lodged sediment that may restrict flow. A Puretec water filter is highly recommended on all incoming lines for product longevity.

Should it be necessary to have your mixer serviced while under warranty, please carry out the following procedure:

1.Firstly call the plumber, preferably the one that has installed it, (most problems are caused by the supply lines not being cleaned out properly, prior to connecting the mixers).

2.Make sure that the plumber has installed your mixer according to the Instruction Guide.

3.If the plumber is satisfied that he cannot rectify the problem then contact your plumbing supply store or your local Puretec stockist.

Important: We do not recommend the dismantling of any internal part of the mixer as this will breach your warranty.

Technical Information

Puretec mixers can be used in conjunction with:

•Pressure storage hot water system

•Any mains water pressure not exceeding 500 kPa

•Maximum hot water temperature of 60°C

•Instantaneous hot water system

•Any filtered water supply

Recommended Working Pressures

•Minimum working pressure 50 kPa (7.5 psi)

•Maximum working pressure 500 kPa (72.5 psi)

It should be noted that water mains pressure builds up during off peak periods, mainly at night, sometimes doubling or trebling normal daytime pressures.

Note: Not suitable for unequal pressure. On high pressure areas where the pressure exceeds the recommended working pressure as indicated above pressure limiting valves must be installed or warranty is voided.
