SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Check with your state and local public works
department for plumbing and sanitation codes.
You must follow these guidelines as you install
the Household Water Filtration System. Using
a qualified installer is recommended.
Be sure the water supply conforms with the Specifications
Guidelines. If the water supply conditions are unknown,
contact your municipal water company
.
WARNING: Do not use with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
I
t is highly recommended that a water shut-off valve
be placed directly upstream of your household filter.
PROPER INSTALLATION
Check with your local public works department for
plumbing codes. You must follow their guides as you
install the Household Water Filtration System.
Use the Household Water Filtration System on a potable,
safe-to-drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter
cartridge will not purify water or make unsafe water safe
to drink. DO NOT use on HOT water (100˚F max).
Protect the Household Water Filtration System and piping
from freezing. Water freezing in the system will damage it.
Your Household 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 is installed.
Do not install on HOT WATER. The temperature of the
water supply to the Household Filtration System must
be between the minimum of 40
°F and the maximum
of
1
00°F
. See the Specification Guidelines
.
Do not install the Household Water Filtration System
using copper solder fittings. The heat from the soldering
process will damage the unit.
WARNING: Discard all unused parts and packaging
material after installation. Small parts remaining after
installation could be a choke hazard.
Do not install filter in an outside location or anywhere
it will be exposed to sunlight.
This Household Water Filtration System must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
System is
Tested and Certified by NSF
International against ANSI/NSF
Standard
42 for nominal Particulate Reduction
Class . III

ABOUT THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
Filter Cartridge Replacement
You should change your filter when the water flow is noticeably reduced or at least every three months.
Filter Cartridge Life
Several variables determine how long
the cartridge will last in your Household
Water Filtration System. These include:
levels of sediment or other undesirable
substances in your water.
the amount of water you use.
the filter location (filtering all or part of your
household water).
GE MODEL FUNCTION LIFE CONSTRUCTION

*NSF Certification for particulate reduction applies only to the FXUSC and FXWTC when
used in GXWH01C or GXWH08C Filtration Systems.
Turn off water to filter. For model GXWH01C,
water must be shut off from an upstream
valve. For model GXWH08C, rotate bypass
valve to the bypass position.
Press the red pressure release button to release
pressure.
Unscrew the filter canister and discard used
filter. Wash the filter canister with mild soap
and water. Do not use harsh cleaners or hot
water.
Inspect the filter canister O-ring. Make sure it
is lightly lubricated and completely seated in
the groove. It is recommended that you
replace the O-ring if it is damaged.
Place a new filter cartridge into the canister
making sure it is centered and completely
seated on the bottom seal.
Reinstall the filter canister to the unit. Hand
tightening is all that is required to seal the
unit.
Slowly turn on water to the filter by using the
bypass valve (model GXWH08C) or the
upstream shut-off valve.
Press the red pressure release button to
remove trapped air.
Open any downstream faucet and allow filter
system to flush for 5 minutes.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
Select Location
Select a location for the filter that is:
protected from freezing.
not exposed to direct sunlight.
It is recommended that a shut-off valve be placed on both sides
of the filter.
Install Fittings
Instructions are for installing fittings supplied with the
filter (on some models) or the WHKIT onto 3/4copper
plumbing. If the unit is to be installed on any other type of
tubing (plastic, PVC, galvanized), different hardware must be
purchased. See instructions with additional hardware
purchased, or consult a qualified plumber.
Apply about 6of Teflon®tape, in a clockwise direction, to
the pipe threads (course) of each adapter. DO NOT use joint
compound on any parts.
Assemble an adapter to the inlet and outlet of the head.
Start each fitting by hand to make sure they don’t cross
thread. Use a 118wrench firmly. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
About one to two thread(s) should remain visible.
Cut Water Line
Turn off water supply and open a nearby faucet to drain
water out of pipes.
Remove the nut and brass ferrule from both compression
fittings and set aside. Using a tape measure or ruler,
measure the distance D” as shown.
NOTE: I
t is recommended that the shut-off valve be placed
before and after the filter as shown in the Installation
Overview illustration.
Select the location for the filter. Mark the distance D”
on the pipe.
Using a pipe cutter or hacksaw, cut pipe. Sand (file) cut
ends of pipe to assure that they are square and smooth.

Installing the Ground Wire
IMPORTANT: A copper or galvanized house cold water pipe is often
used to ground electrical outlets in the home. Grounding protects you
from electrical shock. The water filter housing may have broken this
ground path. To restore connection, install a 12long, 8-gauge
copper wire across the filter, tightly clamped using UL-approved
1/2–1bronze grounding clamps at both ends as shown. Zinc
clamps should not be used on copper plumbing. For GXWH01C,
wire and clamps may be purchased separately from your local
hardware store, or are available by visiting our Website at
www.GEAppliances.com, or from Parts and Accessories by calling
800.626.2002 (U.S.)or 800.663.6060 (Canada) – order part
number WHKIT.
Clean copper pipe and ends of wire with emery paper. Bare wire
is recommended. If insulated wire is used, it should be stripped
3/4at each end before cleaning with emery paper.
Attach bronze clamps to copper pipe. Tighten screws.
Attach wire to clamps as shown. Tighten screws.
NOTE: If your house plumbing is plastic, it would not be used as a
grounding path, and this step should be skipped.

Final Check
Install filter, if not all ready done. (See Filter Cartridge
Replacement section.)
Slowly turn on water supply.
Check entire system for leaks.
If leaking, shut off water pressure and tighten or reseal
fittings.
Open any downstream faucet and allow filter system to
flush for 5 minutes.

Installing the Unit
Align filter assembly with pipe ends making certain that the
incoming water supply is going into the filter opening marked
“IN”. It may be necessary to spread the pipe ends apart to install
filter assembly.
Using a 118wrench to hold the adapter in place, use a 114
wrench to tighten the nut. Repeat process for other fittings.
If necessary, support the water pipe on either side of the filter
unit.
