Safety Guides

q

Read all steps and guides carefully before installing and using your undersink drinking water filter

system. Follow all steps exactly to correctly install. Reading this manual will also help you to get all the

benefits from the undersink drinking water filter system.

q

Do not use for the treatment of water that is visually contaminated (cloudy) or has an obvious con-

tamination source, such as contamination by raw sewage.

q

All plumbing should be done in accordance with local codes and requirements. In Massachusetts,

plumbing code 248 CMR 3.00 and 10.00 shall be adhered to. Consult with your licensed plumber.

q

The undersink drinking water filter system works on water pressures of 40 psi (minimum) to 100 psi

(maximum). If your house water pressure is over the maximum, install a pressure reducing valve in the

water supply pipe to the filter system.

q

Do not install the undersink drinking water filter system outside, or in extreme hot or cold tempera-

tures. Temperature of the water supply to the undersink drinking water filter system must be between

40°F and 100°F. Do not install on hot water.

The EPS 1000 is a water purification treatment system.  This system uses a dual filter configuration to

remove undesirable elements in your water.  These elements may include chlorine taste and odor, par-

ticulates, lead, virus, bacteria, cysts, and many organic compounds.  At the same time, the system

allows the minerals found in water to remain, for great tasting water.
The EPS 1000 utilizes patented FACT

®

media technology to ensure a safe water supply for the user.

Replace all filters every 6 months or 350 gallons.  The FACT

®

media technology is designed to stop

flowing when its capability to protect the user has been exhausted.  This one-of-a-kind failsafe technolo-

gy ensures that the user will not be exposed to contaminated water.

NOTE:

A performance data sheet is included listing what the system will reduce from the water supply.

See the performance data sheet for individual contaminants and microbial reduction perform-

ance.

The drinking water system fits under the kitchen or bathroom sink.  However, you can install it where it is

most convenient.  You need a COLD water supply pipe within a few feet (6 feet of tubing is included).

You can purchase longer lengths of tubing if needed to reach more distant points.  Be sure tubing is

acceptable for use on potable water supplies.
