• A pressure regulator, such as a slow-flow regulator, must be installed in front of the unit's water inlet
if the water pressure (including any possible pressure spikes) could exceed the most common operating
water pressure range of 35-70 psi. Failure to comply will void the warranty. King Water
Filtration™ assumes no liability for damage caused by excessive water pressure.
• Check all the connections (i.e. water hose/tubing, connections/fittings) to ensure proper connection
and to avoid leaks.
• After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation), it is recommended that the system be
flushed thoroughly by running the water in your home from the bath tub for approximately 15 minutes.
• Check plumbing inlet and outlet to ensure the proper flow of water through the system.
• Do not use the systems on the cold water supply line with more than 70 psi.
• Do not use the system where water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of known quality.
• All water treatment installations must conform to local plumbing, electrical and sanitation codes.
• These codes are established for your protection. Check with your local public works department for
current plumbing codes.
• Installation errors can cause property damage. King Water Filtration® assumes no liability
whatsoever for systems improperly installed or those installed by someone other than a
licensed plumber or qualified contractor.
• The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by the selected filtration system(s) are not
necessarily in your water. Ask your local water municipality for a copy of their water analysis or have
your water tested by a reputable water lab.
• The King Municipal Filtration system not only removes harmful contaminants, but will also reduce
harmful scale buildup, extend the life of your plumbing and appliances and most importantly provide
pure alkaline quality drinking water for the needs of you and your family from every faucet
in your home.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Installation must be made within an area protected from the elements and freezing.
The unit must be protected from rain, dust, flooding, snow, freezing, and direct
sunlight (the system's exposure to direct sunlight may cause algae growth).
Failure to comply will void the warranty.

*** WARNING:
When installed onto a metal (conductive) piping system (such as copper or galvanized plumbing), the plastic materials used
within your water treatment system may disrupt the continuity of the piping system. As a result, improperly grounded
equipment or appliances downstream or potential galvanic activity in the plumbing system can no longer ground properly due
to the plumbing system not being contiguous. Some homes are built to accommodate building codes that require electrical
equipment to be grounded through the plumbing system. Before the system is put into service, a bypass made of the same
material as the existing piping or a grounded "jumper wire" that creates a bridge will need to be installed to restore continuity
to the plumbing system ensuring proper grounding, as per building code.
***CAUTION:
When installing water treatment equipment in applications that use well water, the water treatment equipment should be
installed AFTER the pressure tank and booster pump.
If you have any questions, please call customer service at 855-957-2166.
Carefully read this manual and determine the best location for installation and familiarize yourself with all the
components before proceeding with installation.
Verify all applicable plumbing, building, and electrical codes for installation compliance. It is recommended
that equipment be installed by a licensed plumbing contractor.
It is recommended for installation of the system to be on the Main Water Supply. Water softener loop
installations most often WILL NOT treat kitchen cold water feed.
For use with municipally treated potable water supplies
Water must be free of iron, manganese, and bacteria. These contaminants are often found in well water. If
any of the aforementioned contaminants are in your water supply, please call a King Water Specialist at 855-
957-2166 as additional treatment options may be necessary.
If you are using on a well water application, it is imperative that you perform a comprehensive water
treatment analysis before installation to ensure system compatibility. Call King Water Customer Support with
any questions at 855- 957-2166.
