To get your Shower Filter ready to use please do the following:
- Unscrew the shower head from the wall-mounted pipe.
- Screw on the Shower Filter directly to the wall-mounted pipe. Make sure the silicone gasket is in place to create a water tight seal.
- Turn on shower and let water tun through shower filter for 2 minutes to flush out any media residue.
- Re-attach the shower head (or hose) to the output of the filter
- Turn on shower and let water run for 1 minute before using the shower. Check for any leaks.
