Mounting Bracket to
Cabinet Wall
The bracket can be used as a
template for marking the
location of the mounting
screws. When determining
the location of the bracket
make sure you leave 1-1⁄2"
to 2" of free area under the
sumps to allow for sump
removal and enough space on
either side to make the tubing
connections.
Tubing Connections–Compression Style
Run the length of the 3 ⁄ 8 " tubing, connected to the bottom of the faucet,
1
to the filter system outlet (illustration above). Allow enough slack in the
tubing so that the unit can be easily removed.
Measure and cut the end of the tubing square using a sharp cutter or knife.
2
Remove any burrs (illustration A).
Inspect the end of the tubing, about 1 inch, to be sure there are no
3
imperfections. It may be necessary to cut the tubing again.
Slide plastic nut over the 3 ⁄ 8 " tubing.
4
Then slide plastic insert into 3 ⁄ 8 " tubing.
5
Insert the plastic tubing all the way to the bottom of the elbow. Tubing
6
must be fully inserted to avoid leaks.
Slide nut up to the elbow and thread on by hand until tight.
7
Repeat the procedure to connect the tubing between the filter system inlet
8
and the water supply/saddle valve (illustration in the Installation Overview
section).
IMPORTANT: Be sure to check for leaks at all connections. Tighten as
9
needed.
IMPORTANT: 24 hours after installation, check for any slow leaks that may
10
occur. Tighten connections as needed.
IMPORTANT: If unit is not going to be put into use immediately, turn off the
11
water supply valve.
NOTE: Avoid installing the unit where the tubing is pulled at a sharp angle.
This type of installation may cause the fittings to leak. If using tubing other
than what is supplied, be sure it is high quality, exact size and roundness,
and has a smooth surface.
