Application Guidelines/Water Supply Parameters
Service Flow Water Pressure
Water Suppl_ Water Temperature
It is essential that the manufacturer's recommended installation, maintenance and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the product to perform as advertised.
See Installation Manual for Warranty information.
Operating Specifications
• Pressure requirement:/40-120 psi (2.8-8.2 bar), non-shock
• Temperature: 55-100°F (0.6-58°C)
• Ftow rate: 0.5 gpm (1.9 ipm)
General Installation/Operation/Maintenance Requirements
• Flushnew cartridge at full flow for 1-1/2gallons (aboutthree minutes)to purge
trapped air.
• Replacecartridge when flow becomes too slow.
• Protect from freezing by removing filter cartridge when temperatures are
expected to drop below 55°F (1°C). D o not install sgstems in areas where
ambient temperatures mag go above 100°F or below 40°K Do not install
on a hot water supplg.
Special Notices
• Installation instructions are included with the product when shipped.
• This drinking water sgstem must be maintained according to manufacturer's
instructions, including replacement of filter ca rtridges.
• Do not use with water that is microbiologicallg unsafe or of unknown quatitg
without adequate disinfection before or after the sgstem. Sgstems certified for
cgst reduction mag be used on disinfected water that mag contain filterable cgsts.
• The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced bg this water
treatment sgstem are not necessarilg in gour water.
• Check for compliance with the applicable state and local laws and regulations.
• Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratorg conditions,
actual performance mag varg. Sgstems must be installed and operated in
accordance with manufacturer's recommended procedures and guidelines.
• Installation and use HUST complg with all state and local plumbing codes. Do not
install if water pressu re exceeds 120 psi. If gour water pressure exceeds 80 psi
(552 kPa), gou should install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if gou are uncertain how to check gour water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions mag occur. If water ha mmer
conditions exist gou must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing
professional if gou are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Where a backflow prevention device is installed on o water system, a device for
controlling pressure due to thermal expansion must be installed.
