EPU2 Undersink Water Filter
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY GUIDES:
= Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow
their guidelines as you install the water filtration system.
= Do not use this system on water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
= This system is only for use on COLD water (100°F / 38°C max.). Do not install on a
hot water supply.
= Do not install this system where it will be exposed to outdoor weather or direct sun.
= Do not install or store this system where it will be exposed to temperatures below
freezing. Water freezing in the system will damage it.
= The maximum operating water pressure of this system is 100 pounds per square
inch. If your home water supply pressure exceeds 80 psi, install a pressure
reducing valve before installing the water filtration system.
INSTALLATION LOCATION:
To filter water to a faucet, install the undersink filtration system on the COLD supply
water pipe to that faucet (See Figure 1).
NOTE: A mounting bracket and screws are included to support the filter assembly
(See Figure 2).
When tightening compression nuts, be sure to use a second wrench to hold the 3/8”
NPT fitting while turning the nut.
6. Fully open the cold water faucet downstream of the filter, then slowly turn the water
supply back on and check for leaks.
7. Turn off the cold water faucet when the water flow becomes smooth.
FILTER CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION OR REPLACEMENT:
Utilizes EPU2G and other standard 2-1/2” x 10” filter cartridges.
CAUTION: Never remove the sump with water pressure in the filter.
1. Close the water supply shutoff valve to the filter (See Figure 1). To relieve pressure
in the filter, open the cold water faucet downstream of the filter.
2. Turn the sump to the left to remove from the head (See Figure 3). Be careful,
as the sump is full of water. Do not lose the large o-ring seal.
3. Be sure the inside of the sump is clean. Thoroughly wash with warm, soapy water
and rinse.
4. Remove the wrapper from the new filter cartridge and insert the filter cartridge into
the sump. Some cartridges fit either way, while others fit only one way. Observe
markings on the cartridge, or on the wrapper.
5. Lightly lubricate the o-ring seal, in the sump, with silicone grease (available at your
local hardware store). Be sure it is fully seated in the groove.
6. Hold the sump up to the filter head, aligning the center hole in the cartridge with the
protrusion on the bottom of the head.
NOTE: If the sump will not tighten up to the head, you may have the cartridge in
upside down or not centered in the sump. Take the cartridge out and check
for correct orientation.
7. Being careful not to cross-thread, turn the sump to the right onto the filter head
and tighten securely. Do not overtighten.
8. Partially open the faucet downstream of the filter housing. Then, slowly open the
water supply shutoff valve (See Figure 1) and allow the filter housing to fill with water.
9. Close the faucet. Then, check for leaks between the sump and the head.

INSTALLATION STEPS:
1. Obtain two 3/8” male NPT adaptors
(not included) of an appropriate size
and type to adapt to the sink’s
existing cold water supply pipe.
2. Shut off the hot and cold water
supply to the sink and open the
faucet(s) to relieve pressure in the
cold water pipe.
3. Cut out a section of the COLD water
supply pipe several inches long,
as needed to install the filter as
shown in Figure 1.
4. Apply 4 wraps of teflon tape to the
threads of the 3/8” male NPT
adaptors (not included) and carefully
turn them into the filter’s inlet and
outlet ports.
5. With the IN side of the water filter
toward the incoming water, make
connections, as shown in Figure 1.

NOTE: If a leak is occurring, turn
off the water supply and
depressurize the filter.
Then, remove the sump
and check the o-ring for
cuts, flat spots, etc., and
sealing surfaces for
foreign material. Clean
the o-ring and lubricate
with silicone grease.
Carefully press into the
groove in the sump.
10. If using a Taste and Odor
Cartridge: A taste and odor
cartridge contains activated
carbon, a black powder. After
the new cartridge is installed,
open the faucet downstream
of the filter housing and allow
carbon particles to purge from
the cartridge. Close the faucet
when you no longer see
“fines” (discoloration) in the
filtered water, or approximately
2 - 3 minutes.
