INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Heavy Duty Water Filtration System—GNWH38F

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

■ Check with your state and local public works department for

plumbing and sanitation codes. You must follow these guidelines

as you install the Heavy Duty Water Filtration System. Using a

qualified installer is recommended.

■ Be sure the water supply conforms with the

Performance Data

If the water supply conditions are unknown, contact your

municipal water company.

WARNING:

Do not use with water that is

microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the system.

■ It is highly recommended that a water shut-off valve be placed

directly upstream of your household filter.

■

Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes.

You must follow their guides as you install the Heavy Duty Water

Filtration System.

■

Use the Heavy Duty Water Filtration System on a potable, safe-to-

drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter cartridge will not

purify water or make unsafe water safe to drink. DO NOT use on

HOT water (100°F max).

■

Protect the Heavy Duty Water Filtration System and piping from

freezing. Water freezing in the system will damage it.

■

Your Heavy Duty Water Filtration System will withstand up to

100 psi water pressure. If your house water supply pressure is

higher than 100 psi during the day (it may reach higher levels

at night), install a pressure reducing valve before the system

is installed.

■ Do not install on

HOT WATER

supply to the Heavy Duty Water Filtration System must be

between the minimum of 40°F and the maximum of 100°F.

See the

section.

■

Do not

install the Heavy Duty Water Filtration System using

copper solder fittings. The heat from the soldering process

will damage the unit.

■ If making a soldered copper installation, do all sweat soldering

before connecting pipes to the system. Torch heat will damage

plastic parts.

WARNING:

Discard all unused parts and packaging

material after installation. Small parts remaining after installation

could be a choke hazard.

■
