IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
INTENDED USE FOR THE PROPUR® HOME WHOLE HOUSE WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM: This SYSTEM is designed for
point-of-entry installation for residential use in filtering either municipal or well potable water. To validate the
warranty, installation, use and maintenance of the Propur HOME system must conform to specifications,
limitations and instructions stated within this manual. For well water use, we recommend your water be
tested for pH, hardness, iron and bacteria. Iron level >.3 mg/I, may require a water softener system (Propur®
PH-2000) as this could affect the performance of the SYSTEM. The use of a Pre-sediment filter and other
equipment may be necessary to address your particular water condition(s), and if necessary, to protect the
SYSTEM. Propur® offers a City Water Test Kit and Well Water Test Kit for checking water. Visit your authorized
Propur® dealer or www.propurusa.com.
WARNING
1. Do NOT use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before the system
2. Do NOT install the system or adjacent filter housing(s) near electrical wiring or piping which may be in
the path when securing SYSTEM to a wall
3. Do NOT install SYSTEM on its side or in direct sunlight
4. SYSTEM should be installed in a dry location protected from the elements including freezing
5. Should the home electrical system require the use of the cold water system as an electrical safety
ground, a jumper MUST be used to ensure a sufficient ground connection across the filter system
installation.
6. Pressure MUST be released in the ElectroCharged™ Sub-micron filter assembly prior to removing the
filter sump
CAUTION
1. Be careful not to over-tighten any connections to avoid damage or cracks to connections which
could result in damage and or leaks
2. Use only approved thread sealant such as Teflon tape or Teflon paste when making connections.
When using paste thread sealant, label must state suitable for use with PVC and NSF approved.
Some sealant pastes may contain solvents which can soften threads resulting in damaged fittings
and leakage
3. If an irrigation/sprinkler system is present upstream of the system, a one-way check value MUST be
installed to protect your SYSTEM
4. Installation such as apartment dwelling may require a vacuum breaker valve
5. For well water installation, install SYSTEM after pressure tank
6. For city water installation, install SYSTEM after meter
7. In areas of known high sediment (such as New York), a Pre-sediment filter assembly is recommended
8. ElectroCharged™ Sub-micron filter assembly requires 3” of space below sump in order to replace
filter
9. DO NOT install where ambient temperature may go above 110°F (43.3°C)
10. DO NOT install without a pressure limiting valve should the water pressure exceed 100 psi (690kPa).
11. DO NOT install on the hot water supply line
12. Fuel or electrical power supply going to water heater may need to be shut off during installation
after water supply is shut off
13. To avoid risk of property damage due to water leakage or to replace tanks or filter cartridge, a
bypass line with ball valves MUST be installed as shown in Assembly Diagram
14. The SYSTEM MUST be flushed/purged before being connected to the main plumbing. This helps
prevent media fines from discharging into the home plumbing and water appliances. Follow
instructions (16) under GETTING STARTED
IMPORTANT NOTES
1. Before starting installation, shut off main water supply, drain pipes and release pressure as necessary
2. Check for leaks after completing installation
3. Failure to follow instruction manual will void warranty

b. Compression fittings for INLET and outlet/To household plumbing – ¾” NPT fittings x size
of piping
c. 3 ball valves and piping for bypass line set up
d. PTFE Tape or paste (NSF approved for PVC)
e. Adjustable wrench
f. Ground kit if required
3. See Assembly Diagram below
4. For City Water installation, install SYSTEM after the meter
5. For Well Water installation, install SYSTEM after the pressure tank
6. Remove components from carton and inspect

16. Surge flushing: It is important to surge flush the SYSTEM prior to final connection/installation to
household plumbing and use to prevent carbon media fines or carbon dust from discharging into
the household plumbing and water appliances.
a. Install temporary line at OUTLET of Sub-micron filter assembly to allow water to drain out
b. BYPASS LINE valve should be turned off
c. Slowly turn on the water supply line. You may notice discolored and or cloudy water due to carbon
fines flowing into the drain. This is normal as the SYSTEM is being flushed out. Continue to slowly turn
on and flush until clear water free from discoloration and cloudiness is flowing
d. Once completed, disconnect the temporary line at OUTLET and finish connection/installation to the
household plumbing line

Slowly turn on water supply line and press red button on filter head to release air pressure
19. Run system and inspect for any leaks
20. Should water appear cloudy in a glass, this is normal as there maybe air bubbles still in the system
and will dissipate with use
MAINTENANCE
1. USE OF BYPASS LINE: BYPASS LINE is intended to be used when circumventing the system for
maintenance or repair of SYSTEM. To use,
