WaterPur™ Water Treatment
System
To help you choose quality water treatment products, the
Water Quality Association developed its Gold Seal pro-
gram. WQA tests water treatment equipment and awards
the Gold Seal only to those systems that meet or exceed
industry standards for performance, capacity and integ-
rity in removing a variety of drinking water contaminants.
WQA Gold Seal testing and validation is available for
drinking water treatment units. It provides the following
assurances:
1. Performance Testing — measures contaminant
reduction capabilities over the life and capacity of
the unit.
2. Structural Integrity — measures durability under
pressurization beyond the usual demands of home
water systems, simulation 10 years of normal use.
3. Materials Safety — confirms a product does not add
anything harmful to the water being treated.
4. Literature Review — verifies clarity and accuracy of
product literature sales and advertising copy, instal-
lation and maintenance instructions, and product
labeling.
Gold Seal labeled products must meet the Water Quality
Association’s Code of Ethics standards. Only the Water
Quality Association can award the Gold Seal, and only
products meeting comprehensive industry standards can
earn it.

The WaterPur™ system filters all water going into your
RV, not just drinking water, thereby protecting your com-
plete plumbing system from contaminants, providing fil-
tered cold and hot water, and providing filtered water to
your bathroom. It also:
•
Removes over 99% of chlorine (taste and odor)
•
Removes over 99% of turbidity
•
Removes over 99% of Giardia and Cryptosporidium
•
Does not channel, fluidize, or bypass like a granu-
lar activated carbon filter
•
Does not permit the passage of cultivated bacteria
like a granular activated carbon filter
•
Does not contain silver nitrate or any other pesti-
cide or harmful chemical
•
Is constructed from all NSF listed materials
•
Is rated for 10,000 gallons or one year
•
Has a flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute
The WaterPur™ cartridge is made of activated carbon
particles fused into a uniform block, providing micron fil-
tration. Service life is greatly extended by a 15 micron
polypropylene prefiltration medium and a layer of
5 micron polypropylene melt blown intermediate filtration
medium.
The replaceable cartridge, which is the heart of The
WaterPur™ system, has been tested to meet the mate-
rial requirements of NSG Standards 42, 53 and 58. It has
been tested to meet the performance requirements of
NSF Standard 42 for Class 1 Chlorine reduction and
Standard 53 for Class 1 Turbidity and Cyst reduction.
Sanitize prior to using your RV’s fresh water system with
The WaterPur™ filter installed; the entire system should
be sanitized and rinsed. When sanitizing, make sure The
WaterPur™ filter cartridge is not in the filter housing.
•
Place one ounce of household bleach (such as Clo-
rox) in your RV’s fresh water tank for each ten gal-
lons of capacity. (If your tank holds 30 gallons, put
3 ounces of bleach in the tank.) Fill your RV’s fresh
water tank with potable water.
•
SLOWLY open the faucets in the RV and allow
water to flow until you smell chlorine at each faucet,
and then close the faucet. DO NOT PERMIT THE
CHLORINATED WATER TO SPLASH ONTO
CLOTHES, WALLS, COUNTERS OR FLOORS.
Allow the system to sit overnight.
•
Drain the fresh water tank and fill with potable water.
Run the faucets until the chlorine smell is gone.
Repeat as necessary.
•
Shut off the fresh water pump or disconnect from
your city water supply. Open the kitchen faucets to
remove pressure. Place a shallow pan beneath The
WaterPur™ housing by turning counter-clockwise,
being careful not to spill the water in the housing.
Empty the water from the housing.
•
Unwrap the WaterPur™ cartridge and place it in the
housing (either side up). Make certain that the ‘O’
Ring is properly seated, and reattach the housing to
the filter cap by turning clockwise. Tighten the hous-
ing firmly by hand. DO NOT over-tighten.
•
Close the kitchen faucets and either turn on your
fresh water pump or your city water supply. Check
for leaks at the filter housing. Tighten if necessary.
Open the kitchen faucet and allow water to flow for
ten minutes. Your WaterPur™ system is now ready
to deliver fresh-tasting, filtered water to all of the
faucets in your RV.
To winterize your RV’s water system, remove The Water-
Pur™ cartridge from the housing and follow manufactur-
er’s directions for de-winterizing, then replace The
WaterPur™ cartridge. The cartridge should be replaced
every 12 months or 10,000 gallons, whichever comes
first.
An easy way to remember to do this is to replace the
cartridge when you de-winterize in the spring. Replace
The WaterPur™ cartridge only with a genuine Water-
Pur™ cartridge available from your Forest River Inc.
dealer.
