4. INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
4.1 Schematic Diagram: 3. Selecting the Filter's Faucet Location.
4. Drill hole for filter faucet installation
The drinking water faucet should be positioned with function,
convenience, and appearance in mind. An adequate flat area is
required to allow faucet base to rest securely. The faucet fits
through a 1/4" hole. Most sinks have pre-drilled 1-3⁄8" or 1-1⁄2"
diameter holes that may be used for faucet installation. If these
predrilled holes cannot be used or are in an inconvenient location,
it will be necessary to drill a 1/4" hole in the sink to accommodate
the faucet.
NOTE:
A. Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal
shavings, parts, or tools from falling down the drain.
B. Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to
prevent scratches if drill bit slips.
C. Mark hole with center punch. Use a 1/4" drill bit to drill
pilot hole.
D. Use a 3/4" drill bit and drill a hole completely through
sink.
E. Smooth rough edges with a file.

CAUTION
This procedure may generate dust which can cause
severe irritation if inhaled or come in contact with the
eyes. The use of safety glasses and respirator for this
procedure is recommended.
When drilling through a countertop, make sure the
area below the drilled area is free of wiring and piping.
Make certain you have ample room to make the proper
connections to the bottom of the faucet.
Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble, granite
or similar countertop. Consult a plumber or the
countertop manufacturer for advice or assistance.
DO NOT ATTEMPT CAUTION TO DRILL THROUGH AN
ALL-PORCELAIN SINK. If you have an all-porcelain
sink, mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer hole or
drill through countertop next to sink.
Do not drill through a countertop that is more than
1" thick.

Space required: please choose an appropriate location for installation, according to the actual size of the water
filtration system, leaving a space of about 20cm around the filter for easy filter replacement.
NOTE: The system carton can be used to determine the operational footprint required for installation of the
system and replacement cartridges. (Figure 6a)
6. Mounting the System
Mount the system vertically. Ensure mounting is level. Place a pencil mark in the upper slots of the bracket
mounting holes. (Figure 6b). Alternate mounting option: If mounting the system near the floor, place the pencil
marks above each of the mounting holes on the bracket to ensure enough space resides below the cartridge and
the floor for cartridge replacement (Figure 6c). Use the 3/32" drill bit to create pilot holes for mounting.

A drinking water cartridge may contain carbon fines (very fine
black powder). If carbon fines appear in the water, discard
water. More flushing is required if carbon fines are present.
Initially, filtered water may appear cloudy. If cloudiness in a
glass of water disappears from the bottom; fine air bubbles
are present. This air within the water will disappear within a
few weeks after installation.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: Ensure that the point of connection between the white tubing and the three-way ball valve is flat and uniform. When
installing, ensure that the white tubing is on the same axis with the three-way ball valve and not askew. Otherwise, the white
tubing may break and cause a leakage in the system.
