Typical Installation
The following illustration is an example of a typical installation showing the
SimPure® DB Whole House Filter Housing connected to your home's incoming
main water supply.
Suppose you do not already have an isolation valve near the proposed DB
Whole House Filter location. In that case, it is recommended to install a valve
before the filter to allow easy and quick filter changes.
Ensure the filter housing is protected from the sun and freezing
conditions, which can cause cracking of the housing and water leaks.

Check Space Requirements
Choose a position after the water meter and after any pressure tanks (if
applicable). Determine and check the filter housing's size and position for
proper installation into the chosen space and remember to leave enough space
around the system for changing filters and maintenance. If mounting close to
the ground, don't forget to leave at least 2-inches of clearance between the
filter bowl and the floor to allow access to drop the filter bowl and change the
filter cartridge.
Site Preparation
Before starting the installation, Isolate the cold-water supply.
Install filter cartridge in housing before
proceeding with the installation.
Install mounting bracket to the head of the filter
housing using the four provided screws
Wrap the Teflon tape around pipe threads of each
fitting in a clockwise direction about ten times
Install Push Fittings to the inlet and outlet and
tighten it with a wrench. DO NOT OVER-
TIGHTEN.
