FILTER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

Filter life depends on local water conditions and the volume of water used. We recommend you change your filter as pre-

scribed by the filter documentation. However, it can be replaced earlier if there is a drop in water pressure.
You can use a variety of cartridges with the AP800 Series housings: AP810, AP811, AP814, AP810-2, AP811-2 and

AP814-2 for particulate and rust; AP817, AP817-2 for particulate, chlorine taste & odor.
NOTE: Before changing cartridge, turn off main water supply. Place a bucket under filter to catch the small amount of

water that will run out after housing removal.

Turn off the water supply and close shut-off valve after filter head.

2. Relieve pressure in filter housing by pushing red vent button.
3. Unscrew housing (to the left) using housing wrench supplied with the product and discard old cartridge. Wash

housing thoroughly with mild soap and water.

Lubricate o-ring with water.

5. Insert new cartridge and re-install housing. Be sure cartridge is correctly installed and o-ring is seated on the hous-

ing before tightening onto head.

Turn on the water supply and shut off valve.

Open main shut-off valve and check for leaks.

Vent air and check on leaks, tighten housing as needed with housing wrench supplied with the product. Open shut-

off valve after filter head.

Flush at least 10.5 gallons through system.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Water Leaks at Fittings:

Tighten slightly until leak stops.

If Leaks Persist:

Shut off water at the main water supply shut-off valve, remove threaded fittings, reapply PTFE tape in a clockwise direc-

tion (to the right) and screw back onto head assembly.

CAUTION

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:

• The disposable cartridge must be replaced every 6 months, at the rated capacity or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
