Step 1 - Install Water Supply Fitting

CHOOSE TYPE OF WATER SUPPLY FITTING TO INSTALL

Locate the cold water line in the sink cabinet. Check and comply with local plumbing codes as you plan, and then install a water supply fitting on the sink’s cold water line. The fitting must provide a leak-tight connection to the Advanced Two-Stage Drinking Water Filter’s 3/8” O.D. inlet tubing. A typical connection using the included water supply fitting is shown in Fig. 3. An alternative connection using standard plumbing fittings (not includ- ed) is shown in Fig. 4.

NOTE: Local code may dictate which type of water fit- ting is used. Consult a plumber if you are not familiar with local codes or plumbing procedures.

NOTE: Codes in the state of Massachusetts require installation by a licensed plumber.

If you live in the state of Massachusetts, review plumb- ing code 248-CMR of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts before proceeding with the installation.
