INSTALLATION LOCATION
To filter sediments from all house water, locate the Deluxe
Multi-Purpose Water Filter on the main water supply pipe
(See Figure 1). Please ask your Sears associate about
products that will remove taste and odor from your water
throughout your home. You can also filter water to one
faucet. For example, install the filter under the kitchen
sink to filter the cold drinking water (See Figure 2).
PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
When planning the installation, first read the "Water
Treatment Filter Cartridges" section on Page 10 to deter-
mine where to locate the water filter housing. Then, use
the drawings on Page 6as a guide. There are many vari-
ables to consider as you plan. Some of these are:
• The Deluxe Multi-Purpose Water Filter inlet and outlet
internal threads are 3/4" NPT
• Existing plumbing type (copper, threaded, etc.) and
nominal size (1/2", 3/4", etc.)
• Tools you have, and your plumbing skills
• Space available for installing the Deluxe Multi-Purpose
Water Filter
Make a simple sketch of your proposed installation, and a
list of plumbing materials you will need. Obtain every-
thing you need before starting the installation.
