IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
1) Read all instructions carefully before installing the Clear2O®RV Canister
Filtration System and store instructions manual. Replacement filters can
be purchased on our Clear2O®website at www.clear2o.com.
2) The actual capacity of any filter may vary from the rated capacity. This
may be due to the volume of contaminants or sediments present in your
local water supply. For optimal performance, replace your filter when
flow rate diminishes or notice a taste or odor reoccurrence. If so, the
capacity has been reached, and recommended to replace filter(s).
3) Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or from unknown
source.
4) Filter is only to be used with cold potable water. Do not use with hot water,
filter may be damaged.
5) Do not allow for the water filter system to sit for extended periods without
being used (over 10 days). If system must be left unused for longer than
10 days, it is recommended to drain the water and remove the filter(s)
and let air dry completely. Upon your return, re-insert filter into the system
or replace with a new filter(s) and flush the system for 5 minutes.
6) Only use Clear2O®Replacement filters recommended for use with this
system. Use of other filters may void warranty.
7) Clear2O®is not liable for consequential or incidental damages due to
improper installation or use of other manufacturer filters.
8) Installation must comply with state and local laws. Refer to your local
agencies for details.
9) Unwrap and make sure any plastic/other shipping material is removed
before using.
10) Once installed, do not remove filter housing while water is flowing or under
pressure. Turn off water and depress pressure relief valve to allow pressure
to decrease completely prior to attempting to remove filter canister housing.
Failure to release pressure completely prior to opening may cause
damage to unit or yourself. Be safe and follow instructions.

Quick Easy Installation – CSC100S with Stand
1) The unit should arrive with internal fittings installed external fittings
should be installed as follows.
2) If the unit is to be used outdoors, install Outdoor water hose fittings
(included on CSC100S) on inlet and outlet side of filter system. To prevent
leaks, apply Teflon plumbers tape to threads and tighten using wrench.
Do not over tighten.
3) For inside installation, determine placement near existing RV plumbing.
Mount stand to wall by drilling pilot holes and inserting screws (not
included), and tighten. It is often recommended to attach canister lid to
stand before installingto wall. Tighten all screws firmly but, do not
over tighten.
4) For outdor use select a convenient flat surface location near your RV or
near the outdoor water spigot to be used. The Clear2O®RV Canister
Filtration System can be used at either location without interfering with
performance. NOTE: Recommend using a pressure regulator valve
(60 psi max) upstream of filter system to prevent any damage from water
pressure spikes.
5) Attach your drinking water approved hose to the water INLET PORT at
your RV, attach other end of hose to the garden hose fitting on the
OUTLET SIDE of the Filtration System. Attach additional drinking water
approved hose to the INLET SIDE of the Filtration System and other end
to the spigot to be used.
11) Check for leaks on an ongoing basis to insure unit is sealed and operating
correctly. Vibrations from driving or handling may cause housings or
fittings to become loosened. Check all regularly to insure no leaks are
occurring. If any leaks are found, immediately shut off water source and
resolve leak to avoid any damage from occurring.
12) IMPORTANT: To prevent pressure spikes, use a pressure regulator on
faucet inlet (prior to water flow to filter system) rated at below 60 psi.
This will help to prevent damage to filter system and RV hoses and
connections from water pressure spikes or pressure inconsistencies.

Quick Easy Installation – CSC100B with
Mounting Bracket
1) The unit should arrive with internal fittings installed external fittings should
be installed as follows.
2) If the unit is to be used indoors, install ½ in water hose fittings (included
on CSC100B) on inlet and outlet side of filter system. To prevent leaks,
apply Teflon plumbers tape to threads and tighten using wrench. Do not
over tighten.
3) Determine placement near existing RV plumbing. Location should insure
enough height to easily remove the canister without interference. Mount
bracket to wall by drilling pilot holes and inserting screws (not included),
and tighten. It is often recommended to attach canister lid to stand before
installing bracket to wall. Tighten all screws firmly but, do not over tighten.
4) Turn off all water to RV and drain to avoid any water in the lines.
5) After measuring to insure proper fit, carefully cut water lines and attach
proper water hose to inlet side of system. Use hose clamp and tighten.
Repeat for outlet side of system. Use hose clamp and tighten. Please
note water flow direction to insure water flows into inlet side and out of
outlet side. NOTE: Depending on location chosen, existing water lines
may need to be extended or rerouted for best installation. Additional
water line/clamps may be required (not included).
Continued Installation
6) If not already removed, using the canister removal wrench included, slide
wrench under INLET SIDE canister and align slots so that wrench engages
with canister. Turn wrench counter-clockwise to loosen canister.
When loose, remove wrench and continue to loosen by hand.
Remove Canister.

6
7) NOTE: The canister has a thin O-Ring seal located at the top of the
canister housing that seals the canister housing to the canister top. This
must be in place within the associated groove to prevent leaks. TIP: it
is often helpful to apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to prevent
the seal from sticking or becoming dislodged during installation/removal.
It is recommended to replace seals annually or, as needed to prevent
leaks. Replacement O-Ring Seals can be purchased at www.clear20.com.
8) Remove wrapping and insert Filter (usually a PREFILTER or CARBON
Filter) into canister insuring that top and bottom filter gaskets remain
securely in place during installation. Guide Canister/Filter on to Canister
top and turn clockwise to tighten. It is recommended to hand tighten
securely. If leaks are noticed, further tighten until leaks stop. If leak
continues, remove and re-install insuring that filter, O-ring, and gaskets
remain in proper position. Canister should screw on easily, do not cross
thread. If difficult to turn, remove and re-install.
9) Check entire system to insure all connections are secure. You are now
ready to turn on water slowly to allow water to fill canisters, once water
pressure stabilizes, check for leaks. If pressure gauges do not register,
check for water flow issues between filtration system and spigot, kinks
in hose, etc.
10) If leaks are found, turn off water and make the necessary adjustments
to eliminate the leaks. If no leaks, open a faucet within the RV and let
water run for 5 minutes to clear any dust or debris from manufacturing
process. Once complete, turn off RV faucet.
11) Water can remain on at the spigot and is now available for use.
12) PRESSURE GAUGE is useful visual tool for determining flow rates in the
filter. Pressure Gauge will only register if system is fully connected on
inlet and outlet side and water is flowing and pressure can be measured.
As water pressure differs at different locations, it is best to compare the
initial pressures noted upon start up to current pressure reading to
determine if flow rate changes. An increase in pressure reading at either
gauge show sign the filter is approaching its useful life. Once pressure is
noted increases approximately 10-20% from initial reading, it is
recommended to change filter.

7
13) Filter life will vary depending on the quality & condition of the input water.
Once the filter reaches its capacity, it has done its job in protecting you
from contaminants and should be replaced. It is recommended to minimally
change filters every six months to insure best quality operation of unit.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not run hot water through the filter. Filter may become damaged.
• Always turn off water at spigot and depress Pressure Relief valves on
EACH canister to release pressure before attempting to remove canister
housing or hose fittings.
NOTE: It may take as much as a day for all trapped air to work out of a new
filter cartridge. If water appears cloudy, the problem is trapped air. It will
correct itself, and in the meantime, the water is safe to drink.
NOTE: Observe pressure gauge reading upon first installation and continue
to compare against initial reading over time. Once pressure readings begin
to drop, filters are nearing their life expectancy. As water pressure differs by
location, comparison to initial reading is the best way to determine flow rate
reductions over time. It is recommended to minimally change filters every six
months to insure best quality operation of unit.
Filter Replacement
1) Replacement Filters can be purchased at www.clear2o.com
2) IMPORTANT: Turn off water at spigot and depress Pressure Relief valve
to release pressure from canister prior to any attempt to remove housing.
3) Using the canister removal wrench included, slide wrench under canister
and align slots so that wrench engages with canister. Turn wrench
counter-clockwise to loosen canister. When loose, remove wrench and
continue to loosen by hand. Remove Canister.
4) NOTE: Each canister has a thin O-Ring seal located at the top of the
canister housing that seals the canister housing to the canister top. This
must be in place within the associated groove to prevent leaks. It is
recommended to replace seals annually or, as needed to prevent leaks.
Replacement Seals can be purchased at www.clear20.com. TIP: it is
often helpful to apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to O-Ring seal
to prevent from sticking or becoming dislodged during installation/
removal. Additionally, application to canister threads helps to make
canister easier to remove.

Care And Storage
Once system is operating correctly, leaks at fittings are rare and can usually
be corrected by tightening the fitting, insuring that gaskets are used within
hose ends, or wrapping the threads with teflon tape. If the unit leaks at the
Canister Housing, be sure the O-ring in the Canister Housing is in place and
tighten firmly. Lubricate the O-ring lightly. Silicone grease is the preferred
lubricant type, but petroleum jelly will also work.
1) TO CLEAN: The canister filter housing can be washed with dishwashing
soap and sponge followed by a thorough rinse.
2) The Filter Top, Gauges, and Stand can be rinsed to remove any dirt
or debris.
3) TO STORE: it is recommended to empty system of water if system is
not used for over ten day period.
5) Remove filter and check to see if filter gaskets are also removed.
6) Remove wrapping and insert replacement filter into canister insuring
that top and bottom gaskets remain securely in place during installation.
Guide Canister/Filter on to Canister top and turn clockwise to tighten.
It is recommended to hand tighten securely. If leaks are noticed, further
tighten until leaks stop.
7) Once tightened appropriately, water can be turned on. Immediately
check for leaks.
8) If leaks are found, turn off water and make the necessary adjustments to
eliminate the leaks.
9) If no leaks, open a faucet within the RV and let water run for 5 minutes
to clear any dust or debris from filter that remain from manufacturing
process.
NOTE: Observe pressure gauge reading upon first installation and continue
to compare against initial reading over time. Once pressure readings begin
to drop, filters are nearing their life expectancy. As water pressure differs by
location, comparison to initial reading is the best way to determine flow rate
reductions over time. It is recommended to minimally change filters every six
months to insure best quality operation of unit.

4) Turn off water at spigot and depress Pressure Relief valve on canister to
release pressure before attempting to remove.
5) Remove canister and remove filter. Gently shake out water and allow
filters to air dry. If filter has not reached its capacity, once dry, filter can
be re-installed for dry storage and future use.
6) Follow start up instructions when ready for re-use. It is recommended to
minimally change filters every six months to insure best quality operation
of unit.
7) FOR RESTART: After storage period, visually inspect filter system for
any signs of damage or leaks from travel or storage. Insure canisters
are tightened and unit is ready for operation. Turn on water and flush
filter system for 5 minutes prior to use.
