How to Install Your Filterbaby PROdermis™ Filter
Watch this video for a quick how to on how to install your Filterbaby.
step one
Remove The Stickers From BOTH SIDES of Your Filter Cartridge
Twist open your filter housing by twisting to the right. Remove your filter and unwrap the plastic. Place the filter back into the housing with the vent holes facing upwards. Twist the housing to the left, aligning the grooves to close.
step two
Remove Your Old Aerator and Check For Any Pieces Inside
Most faucets have a round tip, known as an aerator, at the end that can be removed with your hand or a pair of pliers.
Newer faucets have hidden aerators; you can use one of the four keys included in your box to unscrew the aerator.
Once your aerator is removed, check inside your faucet by feeling around to see if there's any pieces left inside - particularly a rubber ring. If so, be sure to remove any pieces.
step three
Find The One Matching Adaptor
Gently try to screw on each of the adaptors, one at a time until you find the PERFECT fit.
The right one should screw on smoothly and evenly for about 5 full turns.
Do not twist tightly at this time.
In the case that the adaptors included in the kit do not fit, you amy have a unique faucet, please send us a photo of your faucet to help@filterbaby.com and we sill immediately send you more adaptors (free of charge).
step four
Insert the matching silicon ring into the adaptor you just found
Remove the matching adaptor from the sink you just found.
Now try to insert each silicon ring into the groove of the adaptor.
The right one should fit snugly (sometimes very tight). Push the ring firmly into the adaptor, this prevent water leakage.
step five
Screw on the attachment nut and adaptor onto your faucet
Place the adaptor through the attachment nut (wider side towards the bottom).
Insert the Aerator Key into the adaptor and attachment nut.
Twist your adaptor onto your sink very carefully.
TAKE YOUR TIME. It's very important the adaptor screws on evenly so there is no leakage.
You should twist evenly and carefully about 5 times.
step six
Twist the Attachment Nut on Your PROdermis™ Filter System
Twist the attachment nut onto your filter system. Run the water for one minute before use to activate your filter.
Your FilterBaby is ready for use!
