To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and Use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Protect from freezing. Drain fi lter when temperatures drop below 40°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
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, 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 uncer-
tain 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.
• Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near system, cartridges, plastic fi ttings
or plastic plumbing.
• On plastic fi ttings, never use pipe sealant or pipe dope. Use PTFE thread tape only, pipe
dope properties may deteriorate plastic.
• Take care when using pliers or pipe wrenches to tighten plastic fi ttings, as damage may oc-
cur if over tightening occurs.
• 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 posi-
tion to mount the bracket.
• Mount system 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 leave valve-in-head models in "OFF" position for an extended period of time or use
as a substitute for main water line valve if line must be shut off for servicing.
• SHUT OFF FUEL OR ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY TO WATER HEATER after water is
shut off.
• The disposable fi lter cartridge MUST be replaced every 6 months, at the rated capacity or
sooner if a noticeable reduction in fl ow rate occurs.
• Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.
• Allow a minimum of 2" (5 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.
