C. WATER FILTER ON
HOUSE MAIN
WATER PIPE, TO FILTER ALL HOUSEHOLD
WATER
USING
THREADED
PIPE & FITTINGS
(See Figure 5 on Page 6)
MATERIALS AND TOOLS NEEDED:
For threaded
pipe installation,
you will need a pipe
threading
tool, pipe wrenches,
pipe joint compound,
union
fittings
and pipe nipples.
Connect
the filter housing as
typically
shown in Figure 5 on Page 6.
INSTALLATION
NOTES
•
Use pipe joint compound
on all external
threads.
•
Do not turn pipe or fittings
too tightly
into the filter
head or you may break it.
•
It is important
to have some linear
movement
in the
house main water
pipe.
This will allow
you to tighten
union fittings
without
damaging
the filter
head, if pipe
lengths are not exact.
NOTE: Read the "Grounding
Information"
on Page 7, and
comply
with the instructions
if required
to maintain
continuity.
D. WATER FILTER UNDERSINI(,
TO FILTER WATER TO ONE
FAUCET
(See Figure 6 on Page 6)
INSTALLATION
STEPS
1. Close the cold water
side shutoff
valve.
Usually, there
already
is a shutoff
under the sink.
If not, close the
main water
shutoff
valve near the water
meter or pres-
sure tank.
2. Cut and remove a section of the cold water
pipe.
3. If you are plumbing
with flexible
tubing,
hang or sup-
port the filter
housing in some manner.
If using rigid
pipe, be sure to allow
a minimum
of 2" clearance
under the filter for sump removal
when changing
the
filter cartridge.
4. Use the plumbing
procedures
on Page 7 if using com-
pression fittings.
Follow procedures
on Page 8 for
sweat copper
and threaded
pipe installation.
Be sure
water
flow is to the filter
IN side, and from the OUT
side to the faucet.
NOTE: A grounding
jumper
wire is not required.
5. Before turning
on the water
supply, remove the sump
from the filter
head and install the filter cartridge
(See
Page 11).
