CLEANING
The exterior of your filtration system
can be cleaned with warm, soapy water.
Rinse well with fresh, clean water.
Never use chemical cleaning products on
the system's exterior surface as they may
damage the housing.
FILTER REPLACEMENT
We recommend you change the filter in the AO-WH-PREL system every three (3) or six
(6) months depending on your choice of filter. It should be replaced earlier if there is a
significant drop in water pressure.
TIPS
Before changing filter, turn off water supply. Place a bucket under filtration system to catch the small amount
of water that will run out after housing removal. If non-A. O. Smith brand filter is used, installer must ensure
the replacement filter is appropriate.
1. Turn off the shut-off valves.
2. Relieve pressure in housing by pushing
the red pressure relief button.
3. Unscrew housing and remove old filter.
Wash housing thoroughly with mild
soap and water. Rinse thoroughly.
4. Insert new filter and re-install housing.
Ensure filter is centered and seated in the
housing before tightening onto head.
