Location of Filter Unit

DOLPHIN

The purpose of a point of entry unit is to filter all the 

incoming water into the home and therefore should be 

installed as close as possible to where the water enters 

the home.  On municipal water systems the filter should 

be located after the water meter and before the water 

heater. On well water systems the filter should be located 

after the pressure tank and before the water heater. 

                       

The filter is to be installed 

                  on the COLD water line only. 

Allow 15 feet minimum of piping length  between the 

filter and the water heater. If this is not possible, install 

a check valve in the water supply line between the filter 

and the hot water heater to prevent hot water from 

backing up into the filter.

To ensure the proper operation, a minimum of 

20 psi is necessary.  Maximum operating pressure is 120 

psi.  100

o

F is max temp for tank and valve.
