CARE AND CLEANING
Leaks at fittings are rare and can usually be corrected by tightening the fitting or wrapping
the treads with Teflon tape. If the unit leaks at the bottom where the tower screws to the
base, be sure the O-ring in the tower is in place and screw the pieces together firmly.
At annual cartridge change, lubricate the O-ring lightly. Silicone grease is the preferred
lubricant, but petroleum jelly will work.
1. The filter housing can be washed with dishwashing soap followed by a thorough rinse.
2. Sometimes the diverter valves may become clogged with minerals from the water
and begin to stick. Remove the diverter valve from the faucet about once a month
and drop one or two drops of vegetable oil into the small hole where water enters
the valve. Rinse thoroughly.
3. If significant mineral build up occurs within diverter, remove diverter from faucet
and soak in white vinegar for 10 minutes to remove build up. Rinse thoroughly
and re-attach diverter to faucet.
