To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage or fl ooding:
• Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Change the disposable fi lter cartridge at the recommended interval; the disposable pre-fi lter cartridge and post-fi lter cartridge MUST be
replaced every 24 months or sooner.
• Change the disposable membrane fi lter cartridge at the recommended interval; the disposable RO membrane cartridge MUST be replaced
every 24 months or sooner.
• Failure to replace the disposable fi lter and membrane cartridges at recommended intervals may lead to reduced fi lter performance and failure
of the fi lters, causing property damage from water leakage or fl ooding.
• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Protect from freezing, remove fi lter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop below 33° F (4.4° C).
• DO NOT install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110° F (43.3° C).
• DO NOT install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this fi lter system is 100°F (37.8°C).
• DO NOT install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi (552 kPa), you must install a pressure
limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• DO NOT install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester.
Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Where a backfl ow prevention device is installed on a water system, a device for controlling pressure due to thermal expansion MUST be
installed. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to select/install/maintain a thermal expansion device.
• Where a booster pump is installed on a water system, you MUST maintain and inspect the attached pressure switch regularly in accordance
with the booster pump manufacturer's instructions. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to maintain your booster pump
system.
• Where a booster pump is installed on a water system, you MUST install an appropriate pressure relief valve. Pressure relief valve must be
maintained and inspected every 6 months. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how select/install/maintain a pressure relief
valve.
• Where a booster pump is installed on a water system, you MUST install an appropriate pressure regulating valve and regulate water pressure
to <80psi. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how select/install/maintain a pressure regulating valve.
• DO NOT install in direct sunlight or outdoors.
• DO NOT install near water pipes which will be in path of a drilling tool when selecting the position to mount the bracket.
• Mount fi lter in such a position as to prevent it from being struck by other items used in the area of installation.
• Ensure that the location and fasteners will support the weight of the system when installed and full of water.
• Ensure all tubing and fi ttings are secure and free of leaks.
• DO NOT install unit if collet is missing. Contact 1-866-990-9785 if collets are missing from any fi ttings.
• Use compatible fl exible tubing with 'push in connections' (such as PEX tubing, PE tubing, PP tubing).
• DO NOT install with rigid piping (such as copper, aluminum, stainless steel, chrome plated, or anodized tubing).
• All hydro-pneumatic pressurized tanks MUST have an appropriate pressure relief valve installed. Pressure relief valve must be maintained
and inspected every 6 months. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to select/install/maintain a pressure relief valve.
• Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.
• Allow a minimum of 3" (6.72 cm) clear space under fi lter to facilitate cartridge change.
• Install with the inlet and outlet ports as labeled. Make sure not to reverse connections.
• Some local codes may require the use of a licensed plumber or certifi ed installer when disrupting a potable water line.
