1. Select easily accessible area under the sink to mount the filter system.
2. Note: Mount system to a solid cabinet wall or wall. If this is not an option, use toggle bolts or hollow-wall anchor
bolts (not included) to secure the system to the surface.
3. Note: Allow a minimum clearance of 4-6” below the filter cartridges to allow ample space for cartridge changes.
The filter system must be mounted in a vertical position.
4. After removing the cap from the manifold, use the back panel as your mounting template marking the holes for
the mounting screws on the wall surface.
5. Drill two pilot holes for the mounting screws using a 1/8” drill bit. Insert mounting screws into the wall with a
Phillips screwdriver leaving approximately 3/8” of each mounting screw exposed.
6. Position the system head on the eyes of the bracket and replace the system head cap.
STEP 4
Install Plastic Tubing for Water Supply Line from Kitchen Faucet Adaptor to System Head Inlet
1. Determine the length of tubing necessary to connect the system head inlet to the kitchen faucet adaptor making
sure to allow enough tubing to prevent kinking in the line.
2. Cut the tubing squarely on both ends. Use a tubing cutter to ensure a square cut.
3. Without bending or crimping the tubing, wet one end of the tubing with water and push it into the kitchen faucet
adaptor approximately 5/8” until it stops.
4. Wet the other end of the tubing with water and push it into the system head inlet on the left side of the manifold
approximately 5/8” until it stops.
5. Note: The tubing does not have to be disconnected for cartridge replacement or routine maintenance, however,
it may be easily disconnected if desired. To disconnect, turn off the water supply to the filter system and press
the grey collar around the fitting while pulling the tubing out with the other hand.
STEP 5
Install Plastic Tubing for Water Supply Line from System Head Outlet to Faucet
1. Determine the length of tubing necessary to connect the system head outlet to the threaded faucet stem mak-
ing sure to allow enough tubing to prevent kinking in the line.
2. Cut the tubing squarely on both ends. Use a tubing cutter to ensure a square cut.
3. Without bending or crimping the tubing, wet one end of the tubing with water and push it into the system head
outlet until it stops.
4. Gently slide the compression nut down (thread side up) over the tubing. Making sure the ferrule is in the proper
position with the larger opening on the bottom (going into the nut), install ferrule over the tubing. Place the
plastic insert into the end of the tubing.
5. Firmly push the tubing into the end of the threaded faucet stem hand-tightening the plastic compression nut
onto the threads. Tighten approximately ½ turn with an adjustable wrench.
