Thank you for your purchase of a state of the art Watts Premier Water Treatment system.

This lter pure system is equipped with a unique swivel valve in head push button assembly. This
allows for a simple and sanitary push button lter change that does not require you to turn off the
water source to the ltration system.

This two stage system is equipped with a sediment prelter and a high quality carbon block lter.
The sediment lter reduces the sand, silt, sediment and rust particles that may be in your water.
The high end carbon block lter reduces the chlorine tastes and odors that may be in your water,

providing you crisp clean great tasting water at your tap.

Watts Premier also has a series of replacement lters that t into this unique swivel head system.

These include:

Granular Activated Carbon lter for chlorine, taste and odor reduction with higher ow.

·

Ultra Filtration Membrane for greater particle reduction including cysts like Cryptosporidium,

·

Toxoplasma, Giardia and Entamoeba.

Lead and VOC lter block for the reduction of lead and harmful chemicals. It is estimated that

·

VOC’s are present in one-fth of the nation’s water supplies. These water contaminants can

enter ground water from a variety of sources including localized use of herbicides and pesticides,

gasoline or oil spills, leaking underground fuel tanks, septic system cleaners, and chemicals used

in the dry-cleaning industry.

System Maintenance

Just because you can not taste it, does not mean that it is not there. Many contaminants in the

drinking water are undetectable to the taste. Additionally, over time if you do not replace the
lter elements, other bad tastes and odors will be apparent in your drinking water. This is why
it is important to change your lters at the recommended intervals as indicated in this system

manual.

When replacing any of the lter elements, pay special attention to any cleaning instructions. Should

you have any further questions please refer to our web site at www.wattspremier.com or call our

customer service department at 1-800-752-5582.

With proper installation and maintenance, this system will provide you with high quality water
