Locating the Ideal Installation Spot

Choosing the right location for your Everpure H54 system is crucial for optimal performance. Keep the following points in mind:

• Accessibility: Select a spot that allows easy access for installation and future maintenance.
• Space: Ensure there is enough space to accommodate the system, including the filter head, cartridge, and fittings.

Step 1: Shutting Off the Water Supply

Begin by turning off the main water supply to avoid any leaks or water damage during the installation process. Locate the shut-off valve and turn it clockwise until it is fully closed.

Step 2: Mounting the Filter Head

• Identify a suitable location for mounting the filter head. Ensure it meets the criteria discussed in the “Locating the Ideal Installation Spot” section.
• Use a pencil or marker to mark the position of the mounting screws.
• Drill pilot holes at the marked positions.
• Align the filter head with the pilot holes and secure it in place using the provided screws.

Step 3: Connecting the Water Supply Line

• Wrap Teflon tape clockwise around the threads of the water supply line to ensure a watertight seal.
• Connect the water supply line to the inlet side of the filter head.
• Tighten the connection using an adjustable wrench, ensuring it is secure but not overly tightened.

Step 4: Mounting the Cartridge

• Remove the protective caps from the inlet and outlet ports of the cartridge.
• Align the tabs on the cartridge with the slots in the filter head.
• Push the cartridge upward into the filter head until it locks into place with an audible click.

Step 5: Flushing the System

• Open a nearby cold water faucet to allow any trapped air to escape from the system.
• Turn on the main water supply to flush the system for approximately five minutes.
• Close the faucet once the water runs clear and without any sputtering.

Filter Replacement Schedule

To maintain optimal performance, it is essential to replace the filter cartridge at regular intervals.

Step-by-Step Filter Replacement Process

• Shut off the water supply.
• Place a bucket or container beneath the filter head to collect any residual water.
• Press the cartridge release button and remove the old cartridge.
• Install the new cartridge by aligning the tabs and pushing it into the filter head until it locks into place.
• Turn on the water supply and flush the system for five minutes to remove any air or carbon fines.
• Dispose of the used cartridge according to local regulations.

Regular Maintenance and Cleaning

In addition to cartridge replacement, periodic maintenance and cleaning will help ensure the longevity and efficiency of your Everpure H54 system. Here are a few key maintenance tips:

• Sanitization: Every six months, sanitize the system by following the instructions provided in the manufacturer’s manual.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the filter head and cartridge housing with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris.
