Purenex T-33 Reverse Osmosis Coconut Activated Carbon Cartridge has no flow direction on it, i need to know the direction of flow to install it.

I have not installed my, recently purchased, cartridge yet. I too was disappointed that it was not labeled with flow direction. I am planning on installing mine with the flow direction toward the smaller end of the cartridge. The old cartridge does have flow direction arrows and they point to the smaller end.

try to rinse out the cartridge. The cold side is plugged. Turn the cartridge around. If you only get cold water, the cartridge is plugged or bad.

Check direction of water flow on valve. Don't know how bracket should be reversed if correctly positioned. My bracket is attached to valve body with two screws and if reversed would would put bracket to right side of water line. This is what would happen if water flow was wrong way. Bracket should attach to left of water line.

Hi, When I bought, I immediately noticed a big change in the water filtration. So my guess is Yes for their claim of removing not only chlorine but fluorine as well, but the draw back is that the water flow is severely restricted to the point I had to remove the shower head and let the water flow through the pipe which is connected to the filter. I was using a handheld shower head. Now I use a reverse osmosis system of 150 GPD that I bought for 130$ at air water ice website. Call them and they will help you. That will be my suggestion and it removes everything. Buy a pump and a water heater (11-1/2" Max Water Depth Water Heater) and you will be good for 4-6 months with pure water for showering until you buy a new filter set for 10-20$. I had to return my filter because it broke after a while and couldn't filter properly in about a week of use. You can tell from the water pressure. And when I opened the faucet, black carbon water would come out for 2 sec. It's heavy. Considering the price, I will go with reverse osmosis. Hope it helped.

That is the most ideal way. Water entering on the bottom and exiting on top. However, I know may installers that have use it horizontally with good results. The biggest factor would be actual flow rates being treated.

Are you sure you have installed this correctly. It is intended as a bypass. Thus there is in a sense one one vertical direction which would correspond to the original down pipe and when not in use this is open (the top of the T in the photo) and when the divert is opened the water flows out the side. The pic should be rotated 90 degrees for the installation position. It works fine for me when in the open position the roof rain drains away but in the divert position I capture the water in my holding tank. Hope this helps.

Assuming it's the same model, it's kind of tricky to visualize which way to turn the filter to remove it. It should have come with a weird, hoop wrench which you slide up the filter casing and then rotate to the left (lefty loosy). You can only really get enough torque if it's mounted in its bracket. Be sure to turn off the intake valve or the water main first and open up the filter spigot, in case this additional pressure seals the filter casing tighter. Hope the helps!

Sorry but I do not understand the question by "pushing" This cartridge works by pulling the handle of the faucet to get water, then turning the faucet to the left to get hot water (if you keep the handle of the faucet turned to the right you would get only cold water)

You may need to contact the company and ask them. When I first got mind, it did not flow at all so the company sent me a new dispenser (not tank) and then it worked.

I plan to try this site next purchase but you can also ask foster and smith website for other options I have used. http://spectrapure.com/AQUARIUM/SEDIMENT-CARBON-FILTERS-DI-CARTRIDGES-RESINThe order left to right is sediment filter, carbon, then the DI cartridge.

Just tip it towards the stem and give a little squeeze - - - it has a one way flow check valve that allows flow into the stem but seals it the opposite direction.

You have it hooked up backwards. I am not sure this is possible unless you have flexible moveable pipes.

The correct instruction should be to open from the RIGHT side as you face the machine. You will find a handy thumb latch to gently depress filter compartment downward and forward toward you and presto! there it is. Hope this helps. The product is excellent.

Sounds like it is cross piped; hot to cold side and cold to hot side or installed upside down which would be the same. Go on-line and search that valves instructions at Grohe. I believe there is a way the cartridge can be turned in the event of cross piping which is quite normal in back-to-back bathroom installations. Is this a tub or shower? If a tub and the shower head looses water when the spout is turned on then it is upside down. Do not think there is anything you can do for this except change it. Good luck!

No. The order that I just received only has filtered water and regular flow.

On the photo of the filter on the Aqueon box, you will notice an adjustable return on the upper left hand side. This return can be swiveled away from the unit and the nozzle adjusted to direct the flow to your needs. In the guide, it reads: "1. Pull up the flow detector unit. 2. Hold the telescoptic pipe with one hand, then turn the flow deflector using the other hand. 3. Push down on the telescopic pipe, into the position you desire. My experience using this filter is that the flow rate does not seem to be adjustable itself but that you can re-position the direction of flow, which can ultimately give you the flow you are looking for. I bought this for a tank that held an axolotl and while I can say that I was very impressed with how clean the tank became after using this filter, unfortunately, I had to replace it with another due to the current being too strong for my particular pet. Had I bought this for a fish tank, I would have been very pleased!
