6. ATTACH THE TAP WATER INLET HOSE TO THE DIVERTER –
a. Insert the long length of white hose into the free end of the pre-filter
(see photo).
b. Remove the small compression nut on the back side of the diverter
opposite of the diverter lever.
c. Slide this nut over the end of the white hose with the threads positioned so
you can screw it back onto the diverter.
d. Push the white hose firmly onto the nipple, and then screw the compression
nut back onto the nipple. Make sure the nut is screwed firmly in place, but
do not over tighten. If you are having trouble getting hose on to the nipple,
try soaking it in hot water for a minute.
7. ATTACH THE GRAY ACIDIC OUTLET HOSE .
The ACIDIC OUTLET port is on the lower right corner of the back of the ionizer,
and is labeled with a red sticker. First slide, one of the small squeeze
clamps over the end of the hose.
To make it easier to attach, soak the hose in a cup of warm water for 20-30
seconds. Firmly push the hose all the way onto the gray outlet port.
Squeeze the clamp and slide it over the port.
Ensure the opposite end runs down into the sink. Cut the hose to a convenient length.
8. CONNECT THE POWER CORD to an appropriate GFI outlet.
9. INSTALL FLEXIBLE STAINLESS STEEL SPOUT –
Screw this into the port on the top of the ionizer.
Do not over tighten.
Installation Method 2.
At the sink under direct main pressure (more difficult)
1. SPLIT YOUR COLD WATER SUPPLY LINE –
This can be accomplished in a variety of ways depending on how your plumbing is configured.
Most commonly, you would install a "T" junction in the cold water line.
"T" junctions are available at any good hardware store and are inexpensive.
Take the white hose when you purchase the "T" to ensure the proper size fitting.
2. ATTACH THE TAP WATER INLET HOSE TO THE "T" JUNCTION –
You will need a hole through which you can route the white hose from the "T" to your ionizer.
Most newer sinks have cutouts that will work for this.
Pull the hose up to the counter.

3. CUT A FOUR INCH LENGTH OF WHITE HOSE
Using a very sharp utility knife, cleanly cut a four inch length
of the white hose. The cleaner you make your cut,
the less likely you will experience a leak.
You will use this piece in the next step.
4. ATTACH THE IN-LINE PRE-FILTER
There is a small black arrow on the pre-filter indicating
water flow direction.
The arrow on the pre-filter will POINT AT YOU IONIZER
indicating water flowing toward the ionizer. Insert the four inch
length you cut into the end of the pre-filter making by pushing
firmly ensuring the arrow is pointing at the end of the four inch hose.
The four inch length will be between your ionizer and the pre-filter.
5. ATTACH THE FOUR INCH WHITE HOSE TO YOUR IONIZER
Attach free end of the four inch length of the hose into the gray port
on the bottom of the ionizer by pushing it firmly into the grey tap water inlet port.
(To remove it, press on the end of the fitting and pull it out at the same time).
6. POSITION YOUR IONIZER
This can be beside the sink, to the rear of the sink.
Make sure it is on a hard and level surface.
7. ATTACH THE GRAY ACIDIC OUTLET HOSE
The ACIDIC OUTLET port is on the lower right corner of the back of the ionizer, and is labeled with a red sticker.
First slide, one of the small squeeze clamps over the end of the hose.
To make it easier to attach, soak the hose in a cup of warm water for 20-30 seconds.
Firmly push the hose all the way onto the gray outlet port. Squeeze the clamp and slide it over the port.
Ensure the opposite end runs down into the sink.
Cut the hose to a convenient length.
8. CONNECT THE POWER CORD to an appropriate GFI outlet.
9. INSTALL FLEXIBLE STAINLESS STEEL SPOUT
Screw this into the port on the top of the ionizer. Do not over tighten.

Undersink Installation

(most difficult)
Undersink installations can only be accomplished with an Undersink Conversion kit.
Your ionizer will require a very specialized faucet and a variety of other parts.
The conversion kit comes complete with everything needed to complete this type of installation.
It is recommended that a plumber perform this type of installation.
Please contact your dealer.
