NOTICE

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

D

Read and follow

stallation and use 

MUST 

comply with all state and local plumbing codes.

D

 

Do not

 install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (827 kPa). If your water pressure 

exceeds 80 psi, you 

must

 install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing 

professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure. 

K

 

Do not

 install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer 

conditions exist you 

must

 install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing 

professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.

K

 

Do not 

install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water 

temperature of this fi lter system is 100º F (38º C).
