Step 1 – Install Water Supply Connector

1.1 Turn off the cold-water line under your sink. Open the kitchen faucet to release any pressure and ensure the water has stopped before proceeding. You can use a towel or bucket to catch any water drips.
1.2 The system comes with a complimentary quick installation kit that connects the system to the existing under sink water supply. Disconnect the cold water line from the water inlet with a wrench.
1.3 Connect both hoses to the system by screwing the 1” Male NPT into the female thread on both ends of the system. 7801524(Hose A) should connect to the incoming line, while 78014-24(Hose B)should connect to the outgoing line. To secure the connection, wrap 3-4 rounds of plumber’s tape(included) on the male threads to prevent leaks.Do not overtighten.
1.4 Connect the 3/8” female threads of Hose A to the incoming water adapter. Then screw the 3/8” male threads of Hose B to the cold-water line of the kitchen faucet. Again, use plumber’s tape on all male threads and avoid over- tightening.
1.5 Hose installation is now complete, butdo not turn on the water supply. Remove both housings with the housing wrench(included) and proceed to the next steps.

Step 2 – Install Filters

2.1 Verify that the O-ring is properly seated inside the groove on top of the filter housing. A light amount of food-grade, silicon jelly may be used to help the O-ring seal better if desired but is not required.
2.2 The filter cartridges are preserved in shrink wrap. Note the direction sign on the sticker prior to removing the wrap.
2.3 When placing the filter cartridge into the housing, make sure it is centered and the protruding knob at the bottom of the housing fits securely in the filter’s central hole.
2.4 Screw the housing, with filters attached, onto the cap, which should also have a center knob that should be inserted into the center hole of the filter cartridge. Turn the housing in a clockwise direction by hand, then use the housing wrench to tighten it another 1/4 – 1/2 of a turn and ensure it is snug. Do not over- tighten. This can cause leaks and make it difficult to unscrew the housing when replacing filters.
2.5 Slowly turn on water main to fill the housing. After a few minutes, the sound of water entering the system will stop. Check for leaks to verify the system is operating properly. Open the COLD-water  faucet and run water for about 10 minutes to expel any carbon fines. Let the unit sit for several minutes, then repeat if necessary.
2.6 Turn off the faucet, and your system is now ready for use.

NOTICE
The water will have a blackish color for the initial flush. This is caused by
residual carbon dust and is to be expected. Continue to run water until the
color runs clear and all air has been purged. It is not unusual for the water
to appear “cloudy” for a day or so following installation. This cloudiness is
actually tiny air bubbles being purged from the filters. This is normal and
will cease after a few days of operation.

NOTICE
After prolonged periods of nonuse (such as a vacation), it is recommended that
the system be flushed thoroughly for at least 10 minutes prior to use.

Maintenance Instructions

Your iSpring US21B under-sink water system requires periodiccare and cleaning throughout its lifetime. It is recommended that the cartridges be replaced every 12-24 months, depending on the number of contaminants present in the water supply. If the system has been functioning properly and the pressure is slowing, this could indicate that it is time to change the filter cartridges.

Replacement cartridges and parts can be ordered online at www.123filter.com or by calling 678-261-7611.

Filter Change Instructions

Step 1- Remove Old Cartridges
1.1 Turn off the water supply to the system. Open a nearby faucet to release the remaining pressure and drain the water.
1.2 Unscrew the housings using the filter wrench included (AWR3) with your system, or a commercially available “strap” type wrench.
1.3 Locate and remove the large O-ring using a small, clean flat head screwdriver. Avoid removing any of the lubricant, and set it aside in a clean, safe place.
1.4 Remove and discard the old filter cartridges.

Step 2- Clean the Housings
2.1 Scrub the housings and caps with a mixture of warm water and about 2 tablespoons of household bleach using a sponge or soft rag. For your safety, wear rubber gloves. Rinse all parts very thoroughly!
2.2 Lubricate the O-ring with clean silicone grease if needed. DO NOT USE PETROLEUM JELLY. Insert the O-ring into the filter groove and press into place. Verify the O-ring is seated correctly.

CAUTION :
This step ensures the proper filter seal. Make sure the O-rings (ORB) are level when seated in the groove. If the O-ring appears damaged, stretched, or crimped, it should bereplaced immediately.
Step 3- Install the New Cartridge
3.1 Remove the new filter packaging and insert the filter cartridges into the housings, making sure they slip over the bottom standpipe.
3.2 Align the bottom of the housing with the cap and hand tighten, then use the filter wrench (AWR3) until snug.Do not over-tighten.
3.3 Close any open valves. Turn on the water supply slowly to allow the system to fill with water.Inspect carefully for leaks.If a leak is found, remove the housing and inspect the O-ring to ensure that it is seated properly, and then retighten.
Step 4- Flush the System
4.1 Flush the system by turning on a cold-water faucet. Allow the water to run until the air and carbon has been purged. Water may initiallyappear cloudy as the filters and system remove trapped air.  New activated carbon filter cartridges may contain loose carbon and air bubbles after installation.
