RECOMMENDATIONS
1.
Hire a plumber if you do not feel com-
fortable modifying the plumbing and
installing the faucet.
2.
You will need to know what type and
size of tubing or piping is between the
cold water supply line and the kitchen
faucet. Take a digital picture of your
cold water supply plumbing to use
as a guide in the hardware store to
purchase the appropriate parts for
installation.
3.
Install a tee in your cold water supply and a separate shut-off valve to the
tee before connection of the Auxiliary Faucet (Fig.1B). This will allow rinsing
and cleaning of the Water Purifi er during Cartridge changes.
a. All fi ttings and valves must be approved for use in drinking water ap-
plications.
b. You must purchase plastic ferrules when connecting plastic tubes to
metal compression fi ttings (which come with metal ferrules for connec-
tion to metal pipe).
Residents of Massachusetts, please adhere to the State of Massachusetts
Plumbing Codes. Use a licensed plumber for installation.
