plumbing codes.

     Use only lead-free solder and flux for sweat-solder connec-

tions, as required by state, province and federal codes.

•   Handle all components of the system with care. Do not drop, 

drag or turn components upside down.

information on where to install the filter see the Installation 

Considerations section of this manual.

system. Always connect the system to the main water sup-

ply pipe before the water heater.

freezing in the system causes equipment damage.

     Do not install in direct sunlight. Ultraviolet rays from the sun 

may cause damage.

•  Minimum inlet water pressure is 30psi. Maximum inlet water 

pressure is 125psi. Use a pressure reducing valve if necessary.
