Cover Removal and Mounting the System

When making a plumbing connection to 

the system, use a back-up wrench on the 

supporting plumbing. Always use a quality, 

approved pipe sealant or thread seal 

tape on pipe threads. Do NOT allow pipe 

sealant inside pipes.
Do NOT over tighten the connections. 

Use plastic fittings when connecting to the 

plastic connections of the system. 
If soldered plumbing is used, do NOT 

apply heat to, or near, the filtration system. 

Use union (O-ring seal) connections for 

ease of installation and future servicing.
