  • Page 6: Filter Installation Instructions

    Filter Installation Instructions Maintenance The filter should be changed annually or sooner depending on the water usage or water conditions. This systems performance is dependent upon the incoming water quality. Life expectancy of the filter varies with the water supply but many users experience filter change intervals in excess of a year when coupled with proper pre-treatment.
  • Page 7: Installation

    Installation Install the Ultra Filter System in the desired location in the water treatment system. Typically this will be the first component in the line of treatment. The cap is marked "IN" and "OUT" on the top of the housing. Mount the housing to the bracket using the supplied screws, orienting the housing to match the applications desired flow direction.
  • Page 8 Install threaded nipples or other threaded fittings in the housing. Be sure to use Tef- lon tape on the fittings. Tighten them with channel locks. If flex pipes with rubber gas- kets are used, there is no need to Teflon tape the outer fittings. If a normal plumbing fitting is used, then be sure to Teflon tape the outer fitting.
  • Page 9 Shut off the water and release the water pressure at the lowest sink or spigot. Cut the pipe and connect it to the filter. Connect the inlet plumbing to the inlet on the filter housing. Tighten with channel locks. Connect the outlet plumbing to the outlet on the filter housing. Tighten with channel locks.
  • Page 10 Remove the sump from the filter housing and install the filter. A very small amount of silicone grease or water can be used to lubricate the O-rings on the filter. The filter housing cap has a coupling that will accept the o-ringed nipple on top of the filter. In- stall the filter so the nipple on the top is fully seated in the filter housing cap.
  • Page 11 Lubricate the O-ring on the filter housing sump and install it. Tighten the filter sump hand tight. That should be adequate. Do not use abrasive tools to tighten the hous- ing or damage may occur.
  • Page 12: Filter Startup Instructions

    Filter Startup Instructions 1. Open a faucet or spigot down stream of the filter. Slowly open the water shutoff valve and let the filter fill. Air will be pushed out of the filter through the open spigot or fau- cet downstream. Once there is no air coming out of the faucet or spigot, turn the wa- ter supply on fully and shut the faucet or spigot.
  • Page 13: Filter Cartridge Replacement Instructions

    Filter Cartridge Replacement Instructions Shut off the water supply Open the faucet or spigot closest to the filter housing and allow all the water to empty from the plumbing systems WARNING! If the pressure is not released, the filter sump will be very difficult to get loose.
  • Page 14 Lubricate the O-rings and install the new filter in the filter housing cap. Lubricate the O-Ring for the sump and the sump threads with food grade silicone grease.
  • Page 15 Install the filter sump in the filter cap by turning it counter-clockwise until it is hand tight. NOTE: The housing should spin tight fairly easily. If not, add more lubrication to the sump threads. This will aid with removing the sump when the filter needs to be replaced again.
