Precaution
Warning: Do not use with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system.
Caution: Filter must be protected against freezing, which
can cause cracking of the filter and water leakage.
Caution: The rubber O-ring provides the water tight seal
between the cap and the bottom of housing.
It is important that the O-ring be properly seated in the
groove above the threads of the housing or a water leak
could occur.
Caution: Because of the product’s limited service life and
to prevent costly repairs or possible water damage, we
strongly recommend that the bottom of all plastic housings
be replaced every ten years. If the bottom of your housing
has been in use for longer than this period, it should be
replaced immediately. Date the bottom of any new or
replacement housing to indicate the next recommended
replacement date.
Notes:
For cold water use only.
The contaminants or other substances removed or
reduced by this water treatment device are not
necessarily in your water. Ask your local water
municipality for the water analysis or have your
water tested by a lab.
Do not install where system will be exposed to
direct sunlight.
Filter cartridge life varies depending on filter type,
usage, and water conditions.
The replacement filter cartridge used with this
system has a limited service life. Changes in taste,
odor, or flow of the water being filtered indicate
that the cartridge should be replaced.
Use only PENTAIR replacement cartridges.
This installation must comply with all applicable
state and local regulations.
Use only Teflon®tape without adhesive backing to
seal joints. Do not use pipe compound (pipe dope),
sticks, or similar compounds; they contain
petroleum derivatives which will cause crazing
and cracking of the plastic in the filter housing.
Use only soap and water to clean filter housing
and components.
Do not use aerosol sprays (bug spray, cleaning
fluids, etc.) near the filter. They contain organic
solvents which will cause crazing and cracking of
the plastic in the filter housing.
After prolonged periods of non-use, such as a
vacation, it is recommended that the system be
flushed thoroughly. Let water run for 5-6 minutes
before using.
Wear safety glasses during installation.
Installation Instruction
Suggested Installation of BIG BLUE20
The recommended installation has a shut-off valve on the
inlet side of the filter. The installation had shown uses PVC
piping.
Installation
1. Apply about three wraps of Teflon®tape in
clockwise direction to pipe threads of each fitting.
2. Attach mounting bracket to the cap before
assembling the fittings.
Note: Allow clearance space below housing to
enable filter cartridge changes.
3. Assemble all fittings. Place the cap properly by
hand. Use a wrench to tighten firmly (DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN).
4. Align filter assembly with ends of pipe, making
certain cap opening marked “IN” is facing the
incoming water supply. Assemble firmly.
5. Slowly turn on water supply to the filter and
depress the red pressure relief button on cap to
release trapped air. Check for leaks. Open the
nearest faucet and flush for 10 minutes, wait one
hour, then flush again for 10 minutes.
When To Change The Cartridge
The life of the cartridge depends on the water volume used
and the substances in the water. Normally the cartridges
should be changed at every 6 months or less. Replace the
cartridge sooner if the water pressure at the faucet begins
to drop noticeably or if you notice changes in the taste,
color or flow of filtered water.
Filter Cartridge Replacement
A. Turn off water supply to filter. Depress red
pressure-relief button on top of filter. Use housing
wrench to unscrew bottom of housing. Turn
slowly to the left and support the housing and
piping as you loosen the housing.
Note: If turning off water supply to the filter will
also turn off water supply to the rest of the home,
be sure to fill bucket of water first to allow you to
clean the housing after it has been removed.
B. Pour out the water from the housing and remove
and discard the old cartridge. Locate and remove
large O-ring, wipe clean of lubricant. Rinse out
bottom of housing and fill about 1/3 full with
water. Add about 2 tablespoons of bleach and
scrub cap and bottom of housing with non-
abrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly. Check
O-ring for damage. If cut, scratched or stretched,
replace it with a new one. If the O-ring is in good
condition, lubricate it with clean silicone grease,
insert it back into groove and smooth into place
with finger. Insert new cartridge over standpipe in
bottom of housing.
C. Screw bottom of housing onto the cap and hand-
tighten (DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN). Turn on
water supply slowly to allow filter to fill with
water. Depress rea pressure-relief button to release
trapped air. Check for leaks before leaving
installation.
NOTE: After installation, flush the cartridge for 10
minutes, wait one hour, and then flush again for 10 minutes
before using the water.
NOTE: Use only PENTAIR replacement cartridges for
best results. Failure to use so, will void your warranty.
Troubleshooting
Leaks between cap and bottom of housing:
1. Turn off water supply and depress pressure-relief
button.
2. Clean and lubricate O-ring with silicone grease.
Also, clean the groove where the O-ring seats with
a clean cloth. Replace O-ring back in groove
above threads. Screw bottom of housing back on
cap securely by hand (DO NOT OVER
TIGHTEN).
3. Turn on water supply. If leaks persist, or if there
are other leaks on the system, turn off water
supply. Call Pen K’s service department.
Leaks on inlet/ outlet connections:
1. Turn off water supply. For brass fittings, tighten
nut 1/2 –turn with wrench.
2. Turn on water supply. If leaks persist, or if there
are other leaks on the system, turn off water
supply. Call Pen K’s service department.
