a. The PM100-IC comes with compression fittings designed for 1/4”
tubing.
b. Select a suitable location for the PM100-IC filter such as behind the
refrigerator or beneath the kitchen floor basement).
Location should be easily accessible for replacement.
c. The filter splices into standard 1/4” copper or plastic refrigerator water supply
line. Place a bucket under the supply line when cutting to catch any residual
water that may drain out. Deburr both cut ends with file of the supply line
before installing the filter.
d. Attach the water supply line to the INLET side of the PM100-IC filter by
i. Slide nut onto inlet water line
ii. Slide brass compression ring onto tube
iii. Insert tube into inlet end of filter and tighten nut using backup wrench
so that fitting does not turn into filter)
e. Place the OUTLET of the filter into an empty bucket and slowly turn on the
water. Allow the filter to flush for 5-10 minutes or
until water is clear. This initial flushing allows for any carbon
particles to be flushed out of the filter before attaching to your refrigerator.
f. Once flushed, turn off water supply to continue installation
g. Connect the supply line going to the refrigerator to the OUTLET side of the filter
by
i. Slide nut onto outlet water line
ii. Slide brass compression ring onto tube
iii. Insert tube into outlet end of filter and tighten nut using backup wrench
so that fitting does not turn into filter)
h. Turn on water. Check for leaks, retighten fittings, if
necessary. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
i. Use the mounting clip and screw to attach the filter to any nearby support to
limit stress on the tubing. Allow easy
removal for filter assembly replacement.
j. Write the installation date on the filter.
