Before You Begin

CB Tech Drinking Water Systems (DWS) have been extensively tested and 
certified  by  NSF  International  to  provide  the  highest  level  of  assurance 
that the device will perform as claimed. Please read this manual before 
proceeding with the installation and use of your system. Installation, 
operation, and maintenance requirements are essential to the performance 
of your system – failure to follow any instructions or operating parameters 
contained herein may lead to product damage or product failure.

• 

Replacement filters can be purchased from the Dealer where the Water 
Guardian was originally purchased.

• 

Actual filter life depends on the amount of water used and the level of 
impurities in the water. See section 

Regarding Filter Capacity (Pg 8)

 for 

additional details.

• 

The Water Guardian is not intended for use with microbiologically 
unsafe  water  or  non-municipally-treated  water.  Systems  certified  for 
cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain 
filterable  cysts.  See  section 

Frequently Asked Questions (Pg 17)

 for 

additional details.

• 

Do not allow water to freeze in the system. If the system is exposed to 
freezing temperatures, drain water from the system and remove the 
filter. Allow the filter to thaw before replacing and reusing.

• 

Do not allow water to sit in the system for extended periods of time 
(e.g., 10 days or more) without use. See section 

Flushing / Disinfecting 

The System (Pg 10)

 for additional details.

• 

To  dispose  of  the  used  filter,  remove  it  from  the  housing  and  place 
in  normal  refuse.  Filters  disposed  in  a  normal  landfill  will  not  release 
any chemical contaminants and may continue to adsorb additional 
contaminants in the landfill.

• 

Check for compliance with any state or local laws and regulations 
before use.
