shut off water.

4. Attach water source to the Inlet.
NOTE:
1” threaded male adapter to existing inlet size and type is required

NOTE:
Existing outlet pipe size smaller or greater than 1” will require a bushing.

outlet. The HC-DP-CRLD filters are identical.
NOTE:
You also need to remove the ‘THIS END UP’ sticker on the Pre-
Filter and be sure ‘this’ end is placed upright.

This step is important to ensure proper housing seal. Make certain
the O-ring is seated level in the groove.

9. Close open faucet. You may now turn your water on. Go slowly and check for leaks.
NOTE:
A carbon cartridge may
contain carbon fines (very fine black powder). After installation, run water for 5 minutes before using the water.
The water is safe to drink.

Reapply silicon to the O-ring if leak persists.

Instructions by re-taping the nipples.

If pressure loss is noticed, the HC-DP-PRE (Pre-Filter) may need to be replaced. The Pre-Filter may need to be
replaced more often than the HC-DP-CRLD filters.

Changes in the taste and/or odor of the water indicates it is time to change the HC-DP-CRLD filters.
