INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
AQUACO CUSTOMER SERVICE
Thank you for purchasing an AquaCo undersink water filter system. Your system is a proven performer manufactured from only
quality materials and components and will give years of ‘spring fresh’ water free of impurities if maintained properly.
Caution: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system.
The system is designed for metropolitan supply water but can be used in other situations. For other types of water supply please
contact your local AquaCo stockist or call our AquaCo Customer Service Helpline.
The AquaCo filter systems cartridges need replacing regularly to maintain optimum performance. This is a simple procedure
when following instructions. For cartridge replacements contact your nearest AquaCo stockist.
Customer Service Helpline 08 6156 0220 (Australia).
OPERATION
The AquaCo undersink systems are designed to run economically for many years, dependent on the initial installation and
periodical maintenance.
Flush systems for 10 minutes after any period of non-use more than 2 days. For a period of non-use of 2 weeks or more, it may
be necessary to replace cartridges.
This product must be installed in accordance with local plumbing regulations by a licensed plumber.
Intstallation Note: A water filter system/tap, like any product, has a limited life and may eventually fail. Also sometimes failure
happens early due to unforeseen circumstances. To avoid possible property damage, this product should be regularly examined
for leakage and/or deterioration and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to an appropriate drain or outfitted with a
leak detector, should be used in those applications where any leakage could cause property damage, and/or the water supply
should be turned off if no one is home/present.
INSTALLATION MUST BE COMPLETED BY A LICENCED PLUMBER. FAULTY OPERATION DUE TO UNQUALIFIED PERSONS WILL
RESULT IN VOIDED WARRANTY COVERAGE.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Select suitable location that is close to the point of filtered water delivery
(eg. sink). Remember to allow access room for changing filters and a
suitable place where water spillage will not cause damage. Location should not be in direct
sunlight.
2. Isolate water supply. Uninstall the connections on the cold water line and connect the
Smart Tee™(see Fig. 2). Reinstall the previous connection to the tee valve.
3. Connect the pressure limiting multivalve to the Smart Tee™with a length of white
tubing.
4. Choose the best position for the faucet, taking into consideration height of jugs etc. and
also the drainage of any spills. Then drill a 12.5mm hole and install the faucet as in step 5.
5. To install faucet, insert the faucet into the hole in sink or bench. The faucet may be installed on any flat surface over
50mm (2”) in diameter. (Remember: check the underside of the location for interference). Make a small indent using a
centre punch to mark the desired drilling location. Drill a pilot hole with a metal drill. Enlarge the hole using a 1⁄2”
metal drill bit.
Once the hole has been drilled install the faucet as per Figure 3. Be sure the faucet body, chrome plate, and the black
rubber washer are placed above the sink. Install the black locating washer, the lock washer and nut underneath, then
tighten firmly while aligning faucet in the desired direction.
6. Reset LED indicator by following instructions on page 7.
7. Install housing assembly by positioning it in the desired
location, marking the position of fixing holes and fixing with
mounting screws. Allow room for the connecting tubes and for
removing the filter sumps (50 mm).
8. Fit tubing into connectors (for quick-connect fittings see fig 8).
Allow slack in the tubing. Make sure flow is right according to
inlet outlet on housing assembly. For faucet connection see
figure 3.
9. Install cartridges as per cartridge installation/changeout.
10. Restore the water supply and check for leaks. The filters need
to be only hand tight. If they leak then undo housing and check
the O-ring is seated properly.
11. Run the system for at least 10 minutes (push the faucet lever
to the upright position) to remove carbon fines. Water may
appear milky, but this is normal and is only tiny air bubbles that will clear after a short period.

CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION/MAINTENANCE
To change the filter cartridges, adhere to the following procedure.
1. Close 1/2" Tee with 1/4" Push-In Tube Connector (Mains Connector or Shut Off Valve) to prevent water flow.
2. Relieve water pressure by operating faucet lever.
3. Unscrew filter housing sump using the spanner wrench and discard cartridges. When removing housings place a
container underneath to catch any spillage. (See Fig 5)
Figure 4
4. Cleanse the inside of the housing using warm water. Check O-ring and lubricate with food grade silicone lubricant or
similar. Replace O-ring if kinked or damaged (Part No: ORG-STD). (See Fig 6)
Figure 5
Figure 6
5. Install new cartridges and
replace housing screwing them
up HAND TIGHT ONLY.
Sediment filter is on the inlet
side and chemical on the outlet
side.
6. Reset LED indicator by
following instructions on page
7.
7. Restore water supply & check
for leaks, rectifying any before
leaving the unit. After installing
cartridges flush unit for 5 - 10
minutes.
