What Does the Water Quality Association (WQA) Gold Seal
Mean to a Consumer?
Safe drinking water is very important to you and your family. Many municipalities meets the minimum requirements to
provide drinking water, most do not meet the recommended health and safety goals set by governmental agencies nor
they have control over the decreasing water quality as it travel through all distribution systems and household plumbing.
Hence it is important to treat water at your household with the help of water treatment and filtration products. It is important
to know that the water treatment and filtration products “Do what they say they will” and the plumbing components that
touch your water “don’t introduce harmful contaminants.”
With so many products out in the market how can you know that which ones do the job safely and which ones don’t? You
need an easy to recognize trusted seal approval on the products that are safe to use and will perform as advertised. There
is a mark that tells you at a glance all you need to know “The Water Quality Association Gold Seal”. The Gold Seal on any
drinking water product is exactly what’s certified and this delivers cleaner and safer water.
Since 1959, the water quality association Gold Seal certification program has been testing and certifying products that filter
or touch the water you drink.
It guarantees two critical aspects of consumer safety, that the filtration and treatment products perform as expected and
the plumbing products at your home aren’t hazardous to water quality.
It is a well known program among the consumer and regulatory bodies everywhere.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you and congratulations on making a smart decision to invest in a WaterSTATION.
You have joined an elite group of water enthusiasts who demand only the best when it comes to their health and the health
of their family.
In order to fully enjoy your system, please read the users manual thoroughly before use and please use this manual for
future reference.
Since your satisfaction is our priority, feel free to contact our service experts should you have any questions. You may
reach us toll free at 1-866-874-2532.
We are proud of our product and we trust that our strict devotion to the highest quality assurance standards will provide
you with years and years of clearer, treated, great tasting water.
By now, you have probably already opened the box to survey the contents. Please take a few moments to review this
manual before proceeding with the installation and use of the system. Some important items to review are as follows:
• Checkallcomponentsforanydamagecausedinshipment.Also,takeaquickinventoryofallitemssupplied
to ensure none are missing. A checklist in the next section will assist you with identifying these items.
• EnsurethattheWaterSTATIONandstoragetankwilleasilyfitintothedesiredlocation.ThisWaterSTATION
and tank needs to be removed for regular maintenance, so good accessibility is an important tip to keep in
mind.
• Readallwarningscontainedwithinthismanual.
The water produced by the ‘WaterSTATION’ can be used for many purposes around the home.
• Drinking Water - keep container of WaterSTATION water in the fridge to be able to enjoy the cleaner,
fresher taste. Alternatively, take it directly from the tap.
• Ice Cubes - use WaterSTATION water to fill ice cube trays. Ice cubes made from WaterSTATION water are
typically clearer and better tasting than ice made from plain tap water.
• Automatic Ice Makers - a water line from the WaterSTATION system can be plumbed to refrigerators with
automatic icemakers. Additional accessories required to complete this connection are not included. Please
consult the refrigerator’s owner’s manual on this installation.
• Kettles and Coffee Makers - plain tap water eventually causes films and scale in these devices that is
difficult to clean. WaterSTATION water is very low in dissolved minerals content, greatly reducing the
chance of scale buildup.
• Cooking - use WaterSTATION water for boiling pasta, rice or any other recipe that calls for water in the
instructions.
• Washing Fresh Fruit & Vegetables - prevent tap water minerals from being deposited onto food to
maintain freshness.
• Family Pets - Allow your dog or cat to enjoy the same purified water you do.
• Irons. Steamers & Portable Humidifiers - prevent mineral buildup in household appliances that use water
and eventually build up with scale when using plain tap water.
Now you can relax and enjoy the benefits of great tasting water supplied by your WaterSTATION. Remember that good
quality water is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. You can also feel good about the money you have saved by
installing your own WaterSTATION instead of dealing with the expense and hassle of bottled water delivery and also the
impact of the water bottles to the environment.
Simply the best!

•Thissystemmustbeinstalledinaccordancewithapplicablecity,provincial,stateandlocalplumbingcodes.
•To ensure this system continues to operate at its optimum level, it is necessary to have a routine maintenance and
replacement schedule. Please check the filter replacement frequency in the system specification section and maintenance
section of this manual. Frequency at which filters must be changed will depend on quality of feed water supply and level
of system usage. The replacement of the water treatment components of this unit is critical to maintain the performance
of the system.
•Thissystem shouldnot beused wherethe wateris microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection before and/or after the filter. Please refer to the conditions use section in this manual.
•Topreventpersonalinjury,completelyrelievethesystempressurebeforereplacingorinstallingfiltersandmembrane.
