Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes. Check
with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow their
guidelines as you install the water filtration system.

If the water tank has not been used for an extended period of time, or has developed
an unpleasant taste or odour, flush the water system. If the problem persists, replace
the water filter cartridge and refer to the flushing instructions detailed in section

to replace the disposable filter at recommended intervals may lead to reduced filter
performance and failure of the filter, causing property damage from water leakage or
flooding.

plumber or your water supplier for advice on suitable filtration requirements for the
water supplied to your home.
