Filter Change - Watts Premier CT-1 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Step C: Now that you have connected your CT-1 to the faucet you need to purge the air from
the system. Turn on the cold water. Pull out the diverter control button and water will run
through the CT-1. (See figure C). Note: You may hear some noise as air is being purged
from the CT-1 and the first few glasses of water through the unit may be dark color due
to carbon fines. Run water through your unit until it is clear of carbon fines.
Your CT-1 is now ready to provide you with fresh, clean drinking water.
Watts Premier recommends changing the filter
element at least every 6 months or 1350 gallons
(5100 liters).
Use Watts Premier's replacement cartridges
only. Other filters may look the same, but only filters
by Watts are manfactured to fit your CT-1 filter
unit in order to ensure proper reduction of water
contaminants.
Note: There will be water in the CT-1 Filter
Housing. To prevent spillage, turn the CT-1 upside
down before removing Filter Housing from the
base. See figure D.
Step 1: Remove CT-1 filter housing from base by
unscrewing it in a counterclockwise direction as
shown in figure D.
Step 2: Slide out used Carbon Block and filter
cartridge gaskets and discard. NOTE: Do not
discard the CT-1 filter housing O-Ring.
Step 3: Clean inside the of the CT-1 filter housing with warm
soapy water. Rinse the CT-1 Housing with warm clean water
to remove soap.
Step 4: Lubricate filter housing O-Ring with a water-soluble
lubricant (i.e. K-Y Jelly ® or Silicone lubricant) NOTE: Do
not use Petroleum based lubricant (i.e. Vaseline ®).
Step 5: Seat O-Ring into filter housing grove.
Step 6: Slide new filter cartridge into filter housing and screw CT-Filter housing onto base.
