- Select a location that is easily accessible for filter changes and maintenance. Ensure at least 1.5 inches of clearance below the housing for removal.
- The system requires sufficient space on either side for plumbing connections.
- Mount the system to a sturdy surface, such as a wood stud or concrete wall, to support its weight when filled with water.
4.2. Tools and Materials Required (Not Included)
- පයිප්ප කපනය හෝ හැක්සෝ
- සකස් කළ හැකි යතුර (2)
- File or deburring tool
- Teflon tape (thread sealant)
- පැන්සල හෝ සලකුණ
- මිනුම් පටිය
- Drill and appropriate drill bits (for mounting bracket)
- Pipe fittings suitable for your plumbing type (e.g., 1-inch quick connect adapters, compression fittings, or sweat fittings).

4.3. ස්ථාපන පියවර
- ස්ථාපනය සඳහා සූදානම් වන්න:
- ඔබේ නිවසට ප්රධාන ජල සැපයුම විසන්ධි කරන්න.
- Open the nearest faucet to relieve water pressure and drain the pipes.
- සවි කිරීමේ වරහන අමුණන්න:
- Align the holes on the mounting bracket with the corresponding holes on the back of the filter head.
- Secure the bracket to the filter head using the provided screws. Ensure the arrows on the filter head align with your water flow direction (e.g., left to right).
- Prepare Pipe Fittings:
- Wrap the pipe threads of your chosen fittings (e.g., 1-inch quick connect adapters) with approximately 6 inches of Teflon tape in a clockwise direction.
- Screw the fittings into the filter head by hand, then tighten with a wrench. Do not overtighten.
- Cut and Prepare Main Water Line:
- Measure the length of your filter head with the attached fittings. Determine the section of your main water line that needs to be removed to accommodate the filter system. Allow for sufficient pipe engagement into the fittings.
- Mark the section of pipe to be removed.
- Using a pipe cutter or hacksaw, carefully cut and remove the marked section of pipe.
- File down any sharp edges or burrs from the cut pipe ends to ensure a smooth connection.
- Install Filter System:
- Position the filter system into the gap in your main water line.
- Push the pipe ends firmly into the quick connect adapters until they hit a hard stop, ensuring full engagement.
- Drill the mounting bracket into your wall using appropriate screws for your wall type (e.g., wood screws for studs, masonry anchors for concrete).
- පෙරහන් කාට්රිජ් ඇතුළු කරන්න:
- Ensure the filter cartridge is properly seated over the standpipe at the bottom of the clear housing.
- Carefully screw the clear housing with the filter cartridge into the filter head. Hand-tighten first, then use the provided housing wrench to tighten firmly. Do not overtighten.
- ජල සැපයුම යථා තත්ත්වයට පත් කිරීම:
- Turn the bypass valve to the "FILTER" position using the housing wrench. It may be stiff the first time.
- Slowly turn on the main water supply to your home.
- Slowly press the red pressure relief button on top of the filter head to release any trapped air.
- Open the nearest faucet and let water run for approximately 10 minutes to flush the filter cartridge and allow the system to depressurize. Some sputtering is normal initially.
- Check all connections for leaks. If leaks occur, turn off water, relieve pressure, and re-tighten connections.

5.1. බයිපාස් කපාටය
The system features a built-in bypass valve, allowing you to divert water around the filter for maintenance or if filtered water is not required. The valve has three positions:
- පෙරහන: Water flows through the filter cartridge. (Default operating position)
- බයිපාස්: Water bypasses the filter. Use this position when changing the filter or if filtered water is not needed.
- අක්රියයි: Water supply to the system is shut off.
To change the valve position, use the provided housing wrench for leverage, as the valve can be stiff.
5.2. පෙරහන් ජීවිත දර්ශකය
The filter life indicator is a battery-operated monitor that helps track when your filter cartridge needs replacement. Press the "RESET" button for 2 seconds after each filter change to reset the timer.
6. නඩත්තු කිරීම
6.1. Filter Cartridge Replacement
Filter cartridges should be replaced regularly based on water quality and usage, or when the filter life indicator signals replacement. The clear housing allows for visual inspection of the filter's condition.
- Turn off the main water supply to the system by setting the bypass valve to "OFF" or "BYPASS".
- Open a nearby faucet to relieve pressure.
- Press the red pressure relief button on top of the filter head to release any remaining pressure.
- Using the housing wrench, unscrew the clear filter housing.
- පැරණි පෙරහන් කාට්රිජ් ඉවත් කර එය නිසි ලෙස බැහැර කරන්න.
- Clean the inside of the filter housing with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.
- Inspect the O-ring for any damage or wear. Apply food-grade silicone grease to the O-ring to ensure a proper seal and prevent leaks. Replace the O-ring if necessary.
- Insert a new filter cartridge, ensuring it seats correctly over the standpipe.
- Screw the clear housing back onto the filter head. Hand-tighten first, then use the housing wrench to tighten firmly. Do not overtighten.
- Slowly turn the bypass valve to the "FILTER" position.
- ප්රධාන ජල සැපයුම සෙමින් සක්රිය කරන්න.
- Press the red pressure relief button to release trapped air.
- Flush the new filter by running water from a nearby faucet for 10 minutes.

| ගැටලුව | විය හැකි හේතුව | විසඳුම |
|---|---|---|
| ජලය කාන්දු වීම | Loose connections, damaged O-ring, cracked housing. | Turn off water, relieve pressure. Check and tighten all fittings. Inspect O-ring for damage; replace if necessary and apply silicone grease. If housing is cracked, it needs replacement. |
| අඩු ජල පීඩනය | Clogged filter cartridge, trapped air in the system. | Replace the filter cartridge. Press the red pressure relief button to release trapped air. Ensure the bypass valve is fully in the "FILTER" position. |
| Valve is Hard to Turn | Lack of lubrication, stiff mechanism. | Use the provided housing wrench for leverage. If persistent, consider applying food-grade silicone grease to the valve mechanism (consult a professional if unsure). |
| Water Not Filtering | Bypass valve in "BYPASS" or "OFF" position, missing filter. | Ensure the bypass valve is set to "FILTER". Verify a filter cartridge is correctly installed. |
