INSTALLATION & USE
How to Install and Operate

- Connect your filtration system tubing to the compression fitting on the diverter valve, matching the appropriate size (1/4", 3/8", or 1/2").
- Ensure the tubing connection is snug and secure to prevent leaks during operation.
- To use filtered water, pull down on the diverter valve body to redirect water flow through your filtration unit.
- Push the diverter valve back up to return to standard unfiltered tap water.
COMPATIBILITY
Works With Your System
The QMP502PD is designed for countertop water filtration systems that operate under low pressure conditions. The gravity-fed diversion mechanism works reliably with most countertop filter units from QMP and other manufacturers that use standard compression fittings. This diverter valve is particularly well-suited for systems where you need frequent switching between filtered and unfiltered water without permanent under-sink installation.
🔧 Pro tip: Apply a thin layer of plumber's grease to the faucet threads before installing the diverter valve to ensure a watertight seal and make future removal easier. Always hand-tighten first, then use a wrench for just a quarter turn to avoid cross-threading or damaging the chrome finish.
