1. Installation Precautions
The select Water Doctors Treatment systems are carefully designed to reduce sediment, dirt, cysts, and improve
taste. These systems will also prevent scaling and corrosion in your equipment.
Follow these instructions and we are certain that you will be satisfied with the unit and benefit from its low-cost
operations.
What to know prior to Installation
Do not install where line pressure is outside of 40 – 125 psi, or where temperature is lower than 40
degrees or exceeds 100 degrees.
Installation must comply with any existing state or local plumbing codes.
The units must be protected against freezing. Failure to do so may result in cracking of the filter and
water leakage.
The system is designed for cold water line use only. Passing hot water through the system may
seriously damage filter housing.
Filter must be in contact with water at all times.
Recommended pH range is 6 to 8.5.
Recommended inlet pressure is 60 psi.
Tools needed: drill, screwdriver, & tube cutters.
Positioning of water filter
The water filter should be mounted upright on a horizontal surface without obstructions.
Locate a position that is close to the equipment it will be supplying water to, where it is out of the way of
possible damage from day-to-day operations, and where it is accessible for cartridge change out when
needed. There should be a 6” minimum bottom clearance.
Prior to turning water onto the machine, be sure to flush to filters in order to release carbon fines. If this is
not done, the unit WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.
