Mounting
1.
Measure backplate of filter system and mark hole
locations on wall
(See Item
).
a.
Insure marks are level, then drill holes for
anchors (if needed). Anchors must be properly
matched, to allow for wet weight of filter system.
b.
Secure SMF water filter system to wall.
Water Connections
2.
Use appropriate 1/2” fittings and tubing to allow
for a flow rate of 5 to 10 Gallons Per Minute (GPM)
(See Item
). Do not overtighten fittings into
plastic parts! Warranty will be voided if parts are
cracked and/or broken due to misuse and/or
overtightening!
Use only Selecto approved, SMF
Modular fittings!
b.
Connect water filter inlet to cold water
supply. Use approved flexible beverage tubing where
possible with correct sized tube clamps. If hard
plumbing is necessary then use only lead free solder
and protect filter housing from excessive heat. Do
not solder within 12” of plastic parts!
3.
From outlet of water filter use no less than 1/2” ID
tubing to all specified equipment. It is only permissi-
ble to decrease line size when multiple lines are
being used
(See Item
).
* Teeing the tubing should be done appropri-
ately, for example 1/2” x 1/2” x 1/2”. This is only to
be done at equipment location if line is to be used for
other equipment.
