Water filter installation and operational tips.

✔ Filter must be installed vertically

✔ Check inlet pressure is =< 80 psi (Higher pressure will push the scale media to the top and become lodged, restricting flow)

✔ Flush new cartridge for 10 minutes prior to use

✔ Installation of a sediment filter is recommended in front on the filter.

✔ 0.5-micron sediment filter for ice machines and espresso equipment. 1 –5-micron sediment filter (based on water quality) for other kitchen equipment

✔ Check the carbon efficiency, by using a Chlorine test strip to test the water.  If Chlorine is present, replace the filter.

✔ If  carbon test shows no traces of Chlorine and flow becomes too slow or restricted, try replacing sediment filter.

* Carbon should ALWAYS be changed annually even if no traces of Chlorine appear in testing to avoid cross contamination from bacteria growth.
