water TOTAL HARDNESS test is 17.5 grains (300 PPM) or below continue with installation. If the TOTAL
HARDNESS tests results are higher than 17.5 grains (300 PPM), call your dealer or technical support

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions and labels for filter system
before beginning. Position the filter 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.
MOUNTING
Measure back plate(Fig.1, Item 1) of filter system
and mark hole mounting locations on wall.
Ensure marks are level, and then drill holes for
anchors (if needed). Anchors must be properly
matched, to allow for wet weight of filter system
and water lines. Secure water filter system to
wall at all four mounting locations.
