WARNING: Using a qualified installer is recommended.

 

Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

 

Product failure due to improper installation is not covered under the warranty.

NOTE: Keep these instructions for future reference

PLAN FOR INSTALLATION

Prior to installation, we recommend you read the entire manual to familiarize yourself with the 
system, and help you determine the best location for installation. Please check and comply with 
all local plumbing codes.

PREPARE SITE FOR INSTALLATION

 

NOTE: If you have metal drain pipes, consult a plumber for installation of drain connection.

1.  Prior to installation, close the cold water shut-off valve.

2.  Temporarily place system manifold, remineralizer, and  

tank into the under sink cabinet or desired location  
to ensure adequate space and proper positioning. 

3.  3/8" white tubing will be used to connect manifold to tank, and from faucet stem to 

remineralizer. Measure out 3/8" white tubing from the top of the tank to the outlet side of the 
system manifold and mark 3/8" tubing. Then measure remaining length of 3/8" tubing from the 
remineralizer to the desired location of the faucet hole to ensure there will be enough 3/8" 
tubing available for both connections. Wait to cut tubing and follow instructions below.

4.  Remove system, remineralizer, and tank from under your sink to begin installation.
