Step 2: Cut Water Line
1. Turn off the water supply and open a nearby faucet to drain water
out of pipes.
2. Remove the nut and brass ferrule from both adapter fittings and
set aside. Using a tape measure or ruler, measure the distance
“D” as shown below. The distance to cut will vary for the Single,
Duo and Trio unit. See Fig.5.
NOTE: It is recommended that the shut-off valves are placed
before and after the filter as shown in the Installation
Overview illustration. See Fig.1A, 2A, and 3A, Page 3.
3. Select the location for the filter. Mark the distance “D” on the pipe.
4. Using a pipe cutter or hacksaw, cut pipe. Sand file cut ends of
pipe to assure that they are square and smooth.

2. Assemble an adapter fitting to the inlet and outlet of the canister
cap. Start each fitting by hand to make sure they don’t cross thread.
3. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the fittings firmly. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN. About one to two thread(s) should remain visible.
