WATER FILTERS
The two-stage filtration system filters up to 1,350 gallons between filter changes. The filtration sys-
tem uses the following filters:
• First Stage - Five Micron Sediment Filter: For reduction of suspended solids, dirt and rust. Life
expectancy varies with incoming water condition. Recommended change interval depending on
usage and incoming water quality.
• Second Stage - Five Micron Carbon Block Filter: Improve water quality by reducing objec-
tionable organic chemicals, chlorine, tastes and odors. Recommended change interval
depending on usage and incoming water quality.
Prior to disinfecting the water system with a chlorine bleach solution, remove the filter elements
and re-install the filter bowls without the elements. Use the following procedure to remove or change
the filter elements.
Removal:
• Turn off the water supply and the water pump.

• Unscrew the filter bowl from the filter head.
• Remove the old element and empty any remain-
ing water in the bowl.

tight.
