Installation
Step 1: Shut Off Water Supply
- Turn off the water supply to the sink to avoid any leaks or spills.
Step 2: Install Diverter Valve
- Locate the cold-water supply line under the sink.
- Disconnect the line from the sink faucet using an adjustable wrench.
- Wrap the diverter valve's threads with Teflon tape to ensure a proper seal.
- Install the diverter valve onto the cold-water supply, tightening it securely by hand first, and then slightly more with the wrench.
- Reattach the sink's faucet supply line to the top of the diverter valve.
Step 3: Connect 1/4" Tubing to the Diverter Valve
- Cut a length of 1/4" tubing with tube cutters or scissors.
- Insert one end of the tubing into the outlet on the diverter valve. Push it firmly until it is secure.
Step 4: Install the Pressure Limiting Valve (PLV)
- Attach the pressure limiting valve to the tubing coming from the diverter valve. The PLV prevents excess pressure from damaging the filter.
- Make sure the PLV is installed in the correct direction (check the arrow on the valve for water flow direction).
Step 5: Connect Tubing to Filter Housing
- Insert the tubing from the PLV into the inlet port of the filter housing. Push it firmly to ensure a tight fit.
Step 6: Attach Outlet Tubing to Filter
- Cut another piece of 1/4" tubing.
- Insert one end into the outlet port of the filter housing.
- Run this tubing to the location where your faucet will be installed.
Step 7: Install the Faucet on the Benchtop
- Mark the location where you want the faucet on the benchtop.
- Drill a hole (if necessary) using a drill bit suitable for the size of the faucet.
- Insert the faucet into the hole, securing it with the provided nut and washer from underneath the benchtop.
- Attach the outlet tubing from the filter to the faucet's inlet.
Step 8: Turn On Water and Check for Leaks
- Slowly turn the water supply back on.
- Check all connections for leaks, including the diverter valve, tubing, and filter
housing.
Step 9: Flush the System
- Allow the water to run through the filter for a few minutes to flush out any air or loose particles before use.
