Puretec SF240 Double Life Shower Filter System
Puretec Customer Service
Thank you for purchasing a Puretec Shower Filter System. Your system is a
patented, proven performer, manufactured from only quality materials and
components and will give years of clean, fresh, invigorating shower water free
of impurities if maintained properly.
The system is designed for metropolitan supply water but can be used in other
situations. For other types of water supply please contact your local Puretec
stockist.
The Puretec Shower Filter System cartridge needs replacing regularly to
maintain optimum performance. This is a simple process when following
instructions. For cartridge, replacements contact your stockist.
Operation
The Puretec Shower Filter Systems are designed to run economically for many
years dependent on the initial installation and periodical maintenance.
Flush systems for 10 minutes after any period of non-use for more than 2 days.
For a period of non-use of 2 weeks or more, it may be necessary to replace the
cartridge.
Caution: Do not use water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Installation Note: A water filter system/tap, like any product, has a
limited life and may eventually fail. Also sometimes failure happens early due
to unforeseen circumstances.
To avoid possible property damage, this product should be regularly examined
for leakage and/or deterioration and replaced when necessary. A drain pan,
plumbed to an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be
used in those applications where any leakage could cause property damage,
and/or the water supply should be turned off if no one is home/present.
Cartridge Replacement
To maintain the high quality of the purified water, replace the cartridge regularly. See Replacement Cartridge Guide below for details:
