possible allowing convenient space under the sink for assembly. The spout of
the faucet should be able to reach the sink. A 2” flat area is required to mount

quick connect push fittings for:
a. The line piercing valve and the filter head inlet (1.2). Cut plastic tubing to fit from
the needle valve to inlet on the filter housing. Add additional 1-1/2” to tubing
length as tubing will travel about 3/4” into each fitting to seat properly.
The filter head outlet and the faucet. Add additional 1-1/2” inches to tubing into
inlet quick connect push in fitting on filter housing.
b.
The filter head outlet (1.2) and the faucet. Add additional 1-1/2” to tubing
