4. After prolonged periods of non-use (such as a vacation), it is recommended that the system be
flushed thoroughly for at least 5-10 minutes before using the water.
5. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water treatment device are
not necessarily in your water.
6. If you suspect that your water pressure will at any time exceed the maximum rating of 90 PSI
(6.2 bar), a pressure regulator must be installed before the system. It is recommended that the
pressure regulator be set at 75 PSI (5.2 bar) or less.
Maintenance and Filter Replacement Information:
To maintain the optimal performance of your whole house water filter system, filters should
always be replaced in accordance with manufacturer specifications. Filters may need to be
replaced more frequently then specified, depending on the level of contaminants, particularly
sediments, in your water supply. If significant water pressure reduction is noticed, the filter may
have become clogged. We recommend that you keep a “Filter Replacement Log” attached to your
system where you can record the date of filter changes, and that you write a note on your
household calendar reminding you of filter replacement schedules.
Replacement Filters:
Hydronix SDC-45-2010 - replace every 6-12 months
Pentek EP-20BB – replace every 40,000 gallons (6-9 months)

Filter Cartridge Replacement Procedure:
1.
Turn off the water supply to the system using the shut-off valves you installed on the inlet
and outlet of the filter housing. Depress the red pressure release button on the top of the
filter housing cap to allow any pressure inside the housing to escape, thereby allowing the
blue filter sump to be removed easier.
2.
Unscrew the blue sump (bottom of the housing) from the cap using your spanner wrench
(included with original purchase of your system).
3.
Locate and remove the large O-ring. Try not to remove any of the lubricant. The housing
O-ring should be replaced at least once annually or at each filter change if any damage to
the O-ring is noted (kinked, cracked, stretched, etc.), or if any leakage between the black
housing cap and the blue housing sump is detected and does not seal after tightened with
the spanner wrench. Put the O-ring in a safe place where it will not get dirty or otherwise
contaminated.
Replacement O-Ring: Pentek Buna-N Big Blue O-Ring #151122
4.
Take out the old filter cartridge and discard it.
