Carbon Soak Instructions
IMPORTANT!
The carbon media inside the filter system MUST soak in water
for a MINIMUM of 2 days before installation.
To do so set the tank on a level surface in an area where it
can get wet around the tank.
Locate the bypass valve with the red arrows and the 1” PVC
elbows. Install bypass valve to head of tank hand tight. Be
sure the bypass valve is in the “on” position.
Now install PVC elbow to inlet side.
Locate the hose bib assembly and connect it to the Inlet
side. Connect a water hose to the opposite end of the hose
bib assembly.
Turn the water on slowly to about halfway on and wait until
the water comes out of the outlet side. Disconnect the hose
and put the bypass valve in bypass mode, then set tank
aside in a safe place for 2 days.

bypass into the service mode.!
2. Locate the hose bib assembly and connect it to the Inlet side. Connect
a water hose to the opposite end of the hose bib assembly.!
3. Turn the water on slowly and only halfway on and allow the water to run
for 15-20 minutes.!
4. Turn water off and disconnect the water hose.

Pre-Filter Setup/Install
This is the point where you will need to shut the main water supply off and
adapt your plumbing in and through the system. We recommend you
plumb a shut off valve before the pre-filter housing. Locate the area where
the system is going to be installed. Locate aluminum pre-filter mounting bracket
with hex bolts and washers. Mount the pre-filter bracket to the wall (hex bolts
into wall with washers). Note that the bracket should be screwed into the
studs in the wall as the weight of the pre-filter once soaked in water will
add weight. (approximately 24 pounds) Now connect the pre-filter housing
head to the mounting bracket with the hex bolts provided. Plumb the water from
the main water supply into the Inlet side of the pre-filter head. Install lubed o-ring
in groove on top of the blue pre-filter housing. Locate pre-filter and install it onto
small pipe stand inside the housing. Screw the housing to the head as tight as
you can without the pre-filter housing wrench. Now take the wrench and tighten
down hand tight

Complete Install
Once the plumbing is complete its time to start the system up. Double
check all connections. The valve nuts should only be hand tight.
Slowly turn the main water supply back on. Check for leaks. If there are
no leaks slowly turn the bypass valves to the on position. Go to a faucet
inside and slowly turn the cold water on about halfway and let it run for
about 5 minutes. Turn off the faucet and you have now completed the
install.
Now you can enjoy your new Whole House Water Filtration System &
