About the water filtration system.
Using the Water Filtration System and About the Filter Cartridge
The countertop faucet dispenses filtered drinking water when opened. It has
a hand-operated, spring-loaded closed lever to prevent waste. You can keep the
faucet open by pushing upward on the lever to lock it against the faucet spout.
Filter Cartridge Life—Several variables determine how long the cartridges will last
in your Water Filtration system. These include:
1 How much water you use.
How much sediment, taste and/or odor, lead, or other unwanted substance,
2
is in the water.
No matter which Water Filtration system you have, you should replace the
cartridges every six months. In extremely poor water supplies, you may notice
the return of the unwanted substance in your water before the six months are up.
In this case the cartridges should be replaced immediately. If the system is also
for lead or chemical contaminant removal, it is MORE IMPORTANT to replace the
cartridges at least every six months.
NOTE: If the water supply contains high amounts of sediments, the carbon filters
may plug prematurely, reducing filtered water flow to the system faucet. Cartridge
replacement is needed to restore flow.

Specification guidelines.

Many bad tastes and/or odors are removed from water using activated carbon
filter cartridges. They are most often used to remove a chlorine taste and odor.
They can also reduce other undesirable elements from drinking water supplies,
such as organic chemical contaminants and lead.
NOTE: Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide (noticeable as "rotten egg" odor)
may be reduced by taste and odor filters for a short time, but the carbon media
is quickly exhausted. Other water conditioning equipment is usually required for
the continuous treatment of hydrogen sulfide.
The Water Filtration system uses the following filter cartridges:
I. FXUTC—Taste & Odor Cartridge
(3000-Gallon Capacity)
White with magenta end caps

cryptosporidium and giardia)
• Reduces Turbidity
• Reduces Asbestos
• 0.5–1-micron nominal particulate
reduction
The system conforms to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for the specific performance
claims as verified and substantiated by test data.
Minimum - Maximum Supply Water Pressure—40–125 pounds per square inch (psi)
Minimum - Maximum Supply Water Temperature—40–100°F.
Inlet - Outlet—3/8 " NPT
Rated Service Flow: 0.9 gpm (GN1S04C & GX1S04C)
0.6 gpm (GX1S15C [rev. 2])
Depending on the treatment needed for a specific water supply, the water filtration system
can be customized using any combination of the preceding filter cartridge sets.
II. FXULC (rev. 2)—Lead/Cyst Cartridge
