WARNING

• 

Do not mount your water purification system above an electrical outlet. 

Leakage may cause the outlet to short circuit and could possibly result 

in bodily injury.

• 

This system is meant for use with potable water sources. Do not use 

with water that is microbiologically unsafe.

CAUTION

• 

Install  in  compliance  with  state  and  local  electrical  and  plumbing 

codes.

• 

Do not install where system will be exposed to direct sunlight.

• 

Protect  against  freezing  temperatures  and  temperatures  over  113 

°F/45 °C which may damage components.

• 

When using in conjunction with an open reservoir, user should install 

bulkhead fitting and tube to drain at highest point of reservoir to avoid
