BELOW COUNTER INSTALLATION
PREPARATION FOR THE FAUCET
OR DISPENSING DEVICE
This installation uses a separate, counter-
mounted eSpring
®
Faucet or any NON-
eSpring single line faucet or dispensing
device. With the eSpring Water Purifier
below the counter, these installations allow
maximum use of counter space, with no
visible tubing.
Cold water plumbing must be modified to pro-
vide a 3/8” (9.5 mm) Outer Diameter (O.D.)
x ¼” (6.4 mm) Inner Diameter (I.D.) tubing
(plastic or metal) for connection to an auxil-
iary faucet or dispensing device (Fig. 17).
NOTE: You will need an electrical outlet to plug
in the Power Adapter. If you need to install a new outlet, it must be installed by a
licensed or certified electrician according to Federal, Provincial, State, Municipal
and local laws. This outlet must be powered continuously for the Water Purifier to
function properly. In case of a power outage, see p. 8.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Hire a plumber if you do not feel comfortable modifying the plumbing and
installing the faucet.
2. Determine type and size tubing or piping needed between the cold water
supply line and the kitchen faucet. Take a digital picture of your cold water
supply plumbing to use as a guide in the hardware store to purchase the
appropriate parts for installation.
3. Install a tee in cold water supply and a separate shut-off valve to the tee
before connection of an Auxiliary Faucet or dispensing device. This will allow
for rinsing and cleaning of the Water Purifier during cartridge changes.
a. All fittings and valves must be approved for use in pressurized drinking
water applications.
b. Purchase plastic ferrules when connecting plastic tubes to metal
compression fittings (which come with metal ferrules for connection to
metal pipe).
4. Select a location for the faucet or dispensing device. There may already be
an extra, capped hole in your sink’s ledge for a sprayer, soap dispenser or
extra faucet that can be used for mounting the faucet. If you are removing
the connected sprayer, it will need to be sealed properly. (See local plumb-
ing store for assistance.)
a. For eSpring Faucet: If a new hole is needed, it must be between 1¼”
(32mm) and 1½” (38mm) in diameter, less than 3 15/16” (100mm)
from the sink basin and at least 1¼” (32mm) from the wall. Before
drilling, make sure there is sufficient clearance below the sink or coun-
tertop to accommodate the faucet and allow connections to be made
to the eSpring Water Purifier.
b. For NON-eSpring faucet or dispensing device: Follow manufacturer’s
use instructions.
NOTE: For solid countertops, it is recommended to use a very sharp bi-blade hole
saw and start by making a pilot hole. If you have a porcelain/ceramic sink or a tile
countertop, it is recommended to seek professional assistance for proper drilling.
WARNING: Due to the possibility of shock or electrocution, use extreme care
when operating an electric power drill or other power tools around the sink.
Avoid contact with water or moisture at all times.

4. Lay each tube from the Diverter on the diagram. Use a pen to mark a line
across them at the arrows. Push tubing supports into their respective
tubes, until they are flush with the end of the tubes (Fig. 13).
5.
Insert each tube into the proper locations
on the Bracket until you meet the marks
or the marks disappear (Fig. 14).
NOTE: You will feel resistance before the tube
is fully installed.
6. The Diverter controls the flow of
water according to the position of
the pin.
a) Pin pulled out - Treated water
(Fig. 15A).
b) Pin pushed in - Untreated water
(Fig. 15B).
7. Turn on cold water faucet and pull
out the Diverter pin.
NOTE: It will take a short time for water
to saturate the Cartridge and flow from
the Diverter. Flush for a minimum of 5
U.S. gallons (20 liters) (approximately
5-15 minutes) to remove air pockets and
carbon dust. If water is not clear, see Troubleshotting, p. 8.
8. Check for any signs of leakage at the
Diverter and at all tubing connections
(Fig 16). If there is leaking or
bubbling, refer to Trouble-
shooting, p. 7.
9. Turn off the water and push
in the pin, after each use.
NOTE: During use periodically
check system for leaks.
10. Skip to COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION, p. 10.
Residents of Massachusetts, please adhere to the State of Massachusetts
Plumbing Codes. Use a licensed plumber for installation.
