GENERAL
PRECAUTIONS:
• Installation must be done
by a qualified plumber in
accordance with local codes.
Failure to do so can result
in damage not covered by
your SpringHouse warranty.
Installation by a licensed
plumber is recommended.
• SpringHouse can be installed
outdoors but must be
protected from freezing,
excessive heat and direct
sunlight. Failure to do so can
result in component failure,
water leakage, and/or
property damage and will
void the warranty.
• Install on cold water
lines only.
• Install after the
pressure regulator.
• Install after any pressure
tanks or other water treatment
equipment such as softeners.
• Flow must be in the direction
indicated on the canister tops.
• When installing unit, be sure
to position it for easy access
to the filter canisters for
maintenance purposes.
• Unit must be located
within 6 feet of a
110v - 120v gfci outlet.
• Inlet and outlet plumbing
1 inch.
• Maximum supply pressure
250 psi.
• Operating temperature range
of 35-100 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Rated service flow of up to
8 g.p.m. The use of reducers
and/or excessive fittings can
result in a decreased flow
rate and is not recommended.
Household water pressures
of less than 40 psi will result
in a noticeable reduction in
flow rate.
