WaterBoss Filter Owner’s Manual 

6/13/2012 

Checklist Before Installation 

Refer to this checklist before installation. 

 

Water Quality

—If the water supply contains sand, sulfur, bacteria, iron bacteria, tannins, algae, oil, acid, or 

other unusual substances, consider pre-treating the water to remove these contaminants before the water 

supply enters the appliance, unless the appliance is represented as being capable of treating these 
contaminants in its specifications.  
The appropriate 

WaterBoss

®

 Water Filter can address these water shortcomings.  

 

Model 900IF (Iron Filter)

–Reduces iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, and iron bacteria. 

 

Model 900CF (Carbon Filter)

–Reduces chlorine taste and odor. 

 

Model 900NF (Acid Neutralizing filter)

–Adjusts low pH water to a non-corrosive state. 

WaterBoss

®

 Water Softener Model 700 or 900 is highly recommended when using a 

WaterBoss

®

 filter. 

 

Iron

—A common problem found in many water supplies is iron. It is important to know what type of and how 

much iron is in the water supply.  

Iron Type 

Description 

Ferrous Iron (sometimes 
called clear water or 
dissolved iron)

 

Only type of iron that can be treated with a water softener 

Ferric Iron 

Insoluble and the particles can eventually foul a resin bed. It should be filtered out before 
the water reaches the softener 

Organic Iron or Bacterial 
Iron 

Attached to other organic compounds in the water. Additional treatment is needed to 
remove this type of iron 

Colloidal Iron 

Not dissolved, yet stays in suspension. A softener cannot remove this type of iron 

 

 

Water Characteristics

—Model 900IF Iron Filter requires a pH of 7 or above to function properly. An iron test to 

determine iron levels is also necessary. The 900NF Acid Neutralizing Filter adjusts pH levels of 6.3 or above. 

 

Water Pressure

—Not less than 30 psi or greater than 120 psi (2.1–8.4 bar) constant for 

WaterBoss

®

 filters. If 

water pressure exceeds 70 psi (4.8 bar), a pressure regulator is recommended.  

 

Water Supply Flow Rate

—A minimum of 5 gallons per minute or equal to the backwash flow rate of the 

particular model is recommended. For the purposes of plumbing sizing, only the rated service flow rate and 

corresponding pressure loss may be used. Prolonged operation of a water filter at flow rates exceeding the 
tested service flow rate may compromise performance.  

 

Water Temperature

—Not less than 40° or greater than 120°F (4°–49°C). For 900IF Iron Filter, do not exceed 

80°F (27°C). 

 

Drain

—Drain the appliance to an appropriate drain, such as a floor drain or washer drain that will comply with 

all local and state plumbing codes. To prevent back-siphoning, provide an adequate air gap or a siphon break. 

See 

Installation Steps and Start-Up Procedures

.  

 

Electricity

—The transformer supplied is for a standard 120 volt, 60-cycle AC outlet for locations in North 

America or 220 volt, 50-cycle AC outlet for locations outside North America.
