Location
Space requirements - Allow 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) behind the unit for plumbing and drain lines.
Floor surface - Choose an area with solid, level floor free of bumps or irregularities.
Drain facilities - Choose a nearby drain that can handle the rated drain flow (floor drain, sink or stand pipe). Refer to the Drain
Line Chart, Table 1 (page 12), for maximum drain line length.
Electrical facilities - A 10-foot cord and wall mount plug-in transformer are provided. The customer should provide a receptacle,
preferably one not controlled by a switch that can be turned off accidentally. Observe local electrical codes.

If the household plumbing is galvanized and you intend to make the installation with copper, or vice versa, obtain dielectric unions
to prevent galvanic (dissimilar metal) corrosion.
All installations will require 1/2” drain line, (PN 00-3030-82, gray, semi-flexible; or PN 00-3319-46, black, rigid). Obtain slightly
more than you think you will need to cover for the elevation over doorways and so on.
Note: The filter works on 24 volt - 60 Hz electrical power only. Be sure to use the included transformer. Be sure the electrical
outlet and transformer are in an inside location to protect from moisture. Properly ground to conform with all governing codes
and ordinances.
