convenient hook up to the tubing attached faucet.
NOTE: 1/4” union adapter along with segment of 36” long
tubing can be used to extend tubing attached faucet.
3. Using Filter Head Assembly as a guide, fasten Filter Head
Assembly to wall with 2 Phillips mounting screws supplied.
Mark hole locations so that there is 1 1/2” between the
screws (see Figure 2), from center of each screw. When
installed, fi lter bottom should be at least 2 1/2” from sink
cabinet fl oor to facilitate fi lter change. Install screws, but
only halfway, so you can easily slip the bracket to wall

•
The drinking water system faucet should be located on a fl at surface, conveniently located near the sink, so that it
empties into the sink. Most sinks have pre-drilled holes designated for sprayers, soap dispensers, and other ac-
cessories. If your sink does not have an extra hole,
we highly recommend professional installation.
•
Porcelain, enamel, and ceramic sinks require special procedures for drilling holes.
Professional installation is
highly recommended. (See page 6)
IMPORTANT NOTES
To reduce the risk of eye injury while drilling countertop for faucet installations:
•
Safety glasses
MUST
be worn during the sink hole drilling operations.
