UF-216 WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM

P/N 1010885 07/04

MAINTENANCE

The filtration system is designed to require very little 

maintenance.  To ensure that the water is of the highest 

quality, occasionally some service is required.

Manual Flushing

NOTE: Manual flushing only works when the unit is 

in Flush Interval mode (Fi).  

While the unit is in Flush Interval mode (decimal point 

flashing), hold the Start button down for 6-7 seconds 

until the LED displays 

FL

 (Figure 14).  

Continue holding the button down to keep the drain 

open.  The drain will remain open for as long as the 

Start button is pressed (

FL

 will flash on the LED dis-

play).  
Releasing the Start Button closes the drain and puts 

the unit back into start up mode.  After ten seconds, if 

the Start Button is not pressed the unit automatically 

returns to Flush Interval mode (

Fi

).

Checking the Timer Program

During normal operation, the system displays the time 

setting for the Flush Interval Mode (

Fi

) and the decimal 

will flash in one second intervals.  

NOTE: This is the time between flushing, not a time-

of-day setting.  

Over time, it is possible that the system flush will occurs 

at a time of high water use.  If this creates a problem, 

the timer can be reset by unplugging the power cord, 

waiting for 5 seconds, and plugging the power cord 

in again.  The timer then begins timing from the point 

power is restored to the system.  Follow the procedures 

within the Operation section of this manual to check 

and set the timer settings.

Changing the Cartridges

The UF-216 system uses two types of filtration: Carbon 

Block filtration and capillary membrane filtration.  While 

the filtration system is designed for long life, eventually 

the cartridges will need to be replaced.

CHANGING THE CARBON FILTER CARTRIDGE

To change the Carbon Filter Cartridge, follow the steps 

under 

Install and Flush the Carbon Filter Cartridge

 

in the Installation section of this manual.

CHANGING THE CAPILLARY MEMBRANE FILTER 

CARTRIDGE

   1.  Open the faucet or tap closest downstream to the 

filtration system and close the inlet water valve 

and allow the system to depressurize.

   2.  Place a bucket under the strainer at the inlet 

connection to the system.  Open the strainer by 

unscrewing the cap.  Water will flow out of the 

strainer as the system drains.

   3.  Press and hold the Start button to help drain the 

system.

   4.  Reattach the cap on the strainer when the water 

flow stops.  Unplug the power cord.

   5.  Using a strap wrench (up to 6” capacity), loosen 

the top and bottom end caps. 

DO NOT 

remove 

the top and bottom End Caps yet.

   6.  Disconnect the permeate port connection.

   7.  Using a screwdriver, remove the screws from the 

cartridge bracket and set the bracket and screws 

aside.

   8.  Unscrew the cartridge end caps from the car-

tridge, being careful to retain the O-rings from 

each cap.  Set the O-rings aside.

   9.  Install a new cartridge to the system using the 

cartridge bracket and screws saved from Step 8.

 10.  Connect the permeate port connection.

  11.  Inspect the O-rings to make sure they are clean 

and are not splitting or cut.  For all O-rings, make 

sure they are lubricated with an approved food 

grade lubricant acceptable for drinking water use.

 12.  Screw the cap onto the cartridge.  Tighten with 

strap wrench as necessary.

 13.  Follow the Flushing and Starting the System and 

Sanitizing the System and Lines procedures in the 

Installation section of this manual to complete the 

cartridge change.

SYSTEM SANITIZATION

Over time and use, the plumbing downstream from the 

system may require sanitization.  It is recommended 

that the system and downstream plumbing be sani-

tized at least once a year.  When necessary, follow the 

Sanitizing the System and Lines

 procedure in the 

Installation section of this manual.
