NSF  
GNUT05Z, GXUT05Z, GNUV10Z,  
GXUV10Z, GNUL30Z, and GXUL30Z are  
tested and certified to ANSI/NSF Standard  
42 for particulate reduction Class I,  
chlorine reduction Class I and taste and  
odor reduction.  
Parts List  
GNUV10Z and GXUV10Z are tested and  
certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 53 for  
volatile organic chemical reduction.  
GNUL30Z and GXUL30Z are tested and  
certified to ANSI/NSF Standard 53 for cyst,  
turbidity and lead reduction.  
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS  
Read entire manual. Failure to follow all guides and rules could cause personal injury or property damage.  
Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow their guides as you install the Water Filtration  
system.  
Use the Water Filtration system on a potable, safe-to-drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter cartridges will not purify water  
or make unsafe water safe to drink. DO NOT use on HOT water (100°F. max).  
Protect the Water Filtration system and piping from freezing. Water freezing in the system will break it.  
Your Water Filtration system will withstand up to 125 psi water pressure. If your house water supply pressure is higher than 100 psi  
during the day (it may reach higher levels at night),  install a pressure reducing valve before the system.  
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before  
or after the system. GNUL30Z and GXUL30Z are certified for cyst reduction and may be used on disinfected water that may  
contain filterable cysts. The water should be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing satisfactorily.  
Small parts remaining after the installation could be a choke hazard. Discard safely.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
FEED WATER SUPPLY  
Check and comply with local plumbing codes as you plan, then install a cold feed water supply fitting. For new home installation using  
standard plumbing fittings, see Fig. 2A below. A typical installation for existing homes using the saddle valve is shown in Fig. 2B below.  
Fig. 2A. PREFERRED WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION  
A. PREFERRED INSTALLATION  
(using compression fitting)  
1. Turn off the cold water supply.  
2. Complying with plumbing codes, install a fitting on the cold  
water pipe to adapt 1⁄4² OD tubing. A typical connection is  
shown in Fig. 2A. Make sure a shutoff valve is used.  
1⁄4² compression fitting  
B. OPTIONAL HOME INSTALLATION  
When codes permit  
Insert  
NOTE: Codes in the state of Massachusetts require installation by  
a licensed plumber and do not permit the use of the saddle valve.  
For installation, use plumbing code 248-CMR of the  
Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

DANGER: To protect yourself from serious injury or fatal  
shock, use a battery powered hand drill only to make the  
hole. Do not use an electric drill.  
TYPICAL LOCATION  
2. Close the water supply/saddle valve by turning the handle  
clockwise.  
3. Open the main water supply valve and several house faucets to  
purge air from the system. Close faucets when water runs  
smoothly.

NOTE: Looking at Fig. 3D, be sure the faucet base will fit flat against  
the surface at the selected location so the gasket will seal. The base may  
have to be angled sideways or diagonally.

3. Position the base gasket over the mounting hole. Set the base on  
the gasket, routing the leadwire through the mounting hole.  
Holding the flat nut under the sink with one finger, tighten the  
screw until just snug.

4. Turn the remaining flat nut a few turns onto the other screw.  
Position the screw in the slotted base mounting hole and tighten  
until snug. Make sure the gasket position is properly aligned and  
carefully tighten both screws until the base is held firmly in place.  
Do not overtighten and break the base.

MOUNTING BRACKET TO CABINET WALL

The bracket can be used as a template for marking the location of the mounting  
screws. When determining the location of the bracket make sure you leave 1-1⁄2²  
to 2² of free area under the sumps to allow for sump removal and enough space on  
either side to make the tubing connections.  
Mounting

MAKE TUBING CONNECTIONS  
1. Run the length of 3⁄8² tubing, connected to the bottom of faucet, to the filter  
system outlet, Fig.1 on page 2. Allow enough slack in the tubing to be able to  
place the system on the floor in front of the sink. Measure and cut the end of  
the tubing square.

BATTERY PACK INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION  
1. In a dry location, within reach of the electronic base 3¢ leadwire, select a place for  
the battery pack (see Fig. 1 on page 2). The battery pack attaches to most surfaces,  
using the included “sticky-back” Velcro™ strip.

2. The battery pack uses two size “AA” batteries. Check to be sure they are  
installed correctly. Then, remove the paper backing on the Velcro™ strip and  
secure the pack in place.

CAUTION: Never remove sumps with water pressure in the    
filtration system.  
TURN SUMP  
TO REMOVE  
1. Close the water supply/saddle valve (Fig. 1 and 2A) to the filter. Press the vent  
valve on the top of the Filter I head to relieve pressure in the system, Fig. 5, or  
open the filtered water faucet.

2. Turn the sump off of the filter head as shown (use the sump wrench provided).  
Be careful, the sump is full of water. Locate and save the large o-ring seal.  
Remove and discard the used filter cartridge.  
To  
loosen  
3. Be sure the inside of the sump is clean. Thoroughly wash with hot, soapy water  
and rinse.  
4. Remove the wrapper and labels from the new filter cartridge and insert the filter cartridge in the sump. Some cartridges fit either  
way, while others fit only one way. Observe markings on the end of the cartridge. The sediment/taste and odor filter cartridge should  
always be placed in the Filter I location.  
5. Lightly lubricate the o-ring seal, in the sump, with clean silicone grease. Be sure it is fully seated in its groove.  
6. Hold the sump up to the filter head, aligning the center hole in the cartridge with the protrusion on the bottom of the head.  
NOTE: If the sump will not tighten up to the head, you may have the cartridge in upside down. Take the cartridge out and check the  
markings on the end of the cartridge for correct orientation.  
7. Being careful not to cross-thread, turn the sump onto the filter head and hand tighten securely (see Fig.4).  
8. Repeat steps 2 through 7 for the other filter.  
9. Open the filtered water faucet. Then, slowly open the water supply/saddle valve and allow the filter housing to fill. While it is filling,  
press the filter vent valve to release air in the filter.  
10. Close the filtered water faucet. Then, check for leaks between the sump and the head.  
NOTE: If leaking, turn off the water supply and open the filtered water faucet, or press the vent valve to depressurize the filter. Then,  
disassemble the filter and check the o-ring for cuts, flat spots, etc., and sealing surfaces for foreign material. Clean the o-ring and lubricate  
with clean silicone grease. Carefully press into the groove in the sump.  
11. Remove and install two new “AA” alkaline batteries in the battery pack. Removing the batteries or momentarily disconnecting the  
leadwires resets the six month electronic base timer.  
12. The filter cartridges contain activated carbon, a black powder. When new, open the filtered water faucet for ten minutes to allow  
fine, harmless carbon particles to purge from the cartridge. Air suspended in the water may also cause a “cloudy” appearance. This  
air is harmless and should dissipate quickly.
