Installation Instructions
- Select a location for the inline filter that allows for adequate access for easier future filter replacements.
- Turn off the water supply to the tubing where the inline filter will be installed.
- Remove the existing filter or cut the cold water tubing where the filter will be installed.
- Note: Cut tubing square and cleanly. An uneven or rough cut may damage the internal o-ring and cause leaks.
- Remove the blue clips on both ends of the inline filter.
- Confirm that the water flow matches the flow direction arrow on the cartridge.
- Insert the water supply end of the tubing into the quick connect fitting on the end of the filter.
- Once the tubing has bottomed in the fitting and cannot be pushed in any further, gently pull back to ensure the tubing is secure.
- Slowly turn on the water supply and flush the filter with water into a bucket. Run the water for 5 minutes.
- Reinstall the blue clips in the groove on the quick connect fittings on each end of the filter cartridge.
- Connect the other appliance end of the tubing to the outlet of the filter. Secure the filter to the back of the appliance or wall using adhesive tape.
- Turn on the water and check for leaks. Continue to check for leaks for several days.
- Replace your filter cartridge once the media has been exhausted. Exhausted media will have changed in color from green to purple.
