by pentair filter system. copper tubing may
appear to fit, but water leaks will develop over
time and use. if copper tubing is required,
you must use copper compression fittings

store.
Multiple appliance connections: you can also connect your
everpure filter to the refrigerator for ice and water, an instant
hot water dispenser or chiller, or a plumbed-in coffee brewer.
Simply install connection "tees" (available from any hardware/
plumbing supply) in the water line between the filter and the
faucet adapter, and run new tubing to each appliance. Multiple
connections will reduce water flow at each point of use.
notE:
• do not connect this system to a commercial ice maker.
these appliances require flow and volume beyond the
design limits of your under-sink filter system.
• if connecting to a home icemaker and there is no filter
faucet connection under the sink, a flush valve
is required.
• for cold water use only.
• Make certain that installation complies with all state
and local laws and regulations.
• Where local static water pressure is in excess of 80
psi (5.5 bar) the uniform plumbing code, international
plumbing code and the california pluming code require
that an approved type pressure regulator be installed
and the pressure reduced to 80 psi (5.5 bar) or less.
• during prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a
vacation), it is recommended that supply water to the
system be turned off. When restarting the system flush
thoroughly. let water run for 5-6 minutes before using.
• the filter cartridge used with this system has a limited
service life. changes in taste, odor, color, and/or flow of
the water being filtered indicate that the filter cartridge
should be replaced.
• do not install where system will be exposed to
direct sunlight.
• use only plumber tape without adhesive backing to
seal joints. do not use pipe compound ("pipe dope"),
sticks, or similar compounds with this unit. they contain
petroleum derivatives which will cause crazing and
cracking of plastic components.
For installations in Massachusetts, the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts Plumbing Code 248 CMr shall be adhered to.
Consult your licensed plumber for installation of the system.
