Install this filter system on cold water lines only. Do not use on
water lines exceeding 100° F (38°C). Water pressure minimum is
25 psi (172 kPa) and the maximum is 125 psi (862 kPa).
•
Protect the unit from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures.
•
Do not use pipe dope or similar compounds. They can ruin plas-
tic pipe. Use teflon tape to seal pipe thread joints.
•
Keep the unit clean with soap and water. Do not use spray clean-
ers or insecticides near the unit.
•
Intended for indoor, non-commercial use only.
•
For extended periods of non-use turn the water off and remove
the filter cartridge. Place the cartridge in a plastic bag, seal, and
refrigerate.
•
Safety glasses must be worn during installation.
•
The tubing and hose dimensions are based on outside diameters
(OD). For water line sizes other than those listed, consult a
plumber or hardware store.
•
Before using the water, flush the new filter for 30 minutes.
•
Run drinking or cooking water for 10 seconds prior to collecting
the water for use.
•
Change the filter cartridge if changes in taste, color or flow of
water occur.
•
This filter is not a water purifier and is not intended for use with
contaminated water.
•
Comply with all state and local laws regarding the installation of
water treatment devices.
•
Use only Omnifilter replacement cartridges with this housing, or
the warranty is void.
When to change the filter cartridge
The cartridge should be changed as indicated in the “Performance
Data” section above or sooner if the water pressure at the faucet
begins to drop noticeably or if the cartridge fails to perform
satisfactorily.
Choose a Location; See Figure 1.
1. Position the filter housing bracket on the wall of the cabinet
nearest the cold water line beneath the sink. Leave a 3” mini-
mum clearance between the bottom of the filter housing and
the floor of the cabinet. Mark the bracket slots on the wall.
2. Drill a 1/8” hole at each of the two marks, and insert the mount-
ing screws. Leave each screw head 1/4” out from the wall.
Install the Omni faucet; See Figure 2.
3. A. For stainless steel sinks you can drill a 7/8” diameter hole in a
convenient location or use the existing sprayer hole. Mark the
hole location with a punch before drilling.
