GE Under-Sink Water Filtration | Product Installation Video Production

A product installation video has one job: make the customer confident they can do it themselves. Produced for the GE Under-Sink High Flow Water Filtration System, this step-by-step installation film walks the viewer through the complete process — from shutting off the water supply through tubing connections, control valve mounting, and the initial system flush.

Instructional product video demands precision: every step shot clearly, every part identifiable, every instruction synced to what's on screen. We delivered a clean, methodical how-to that reduces support calls and returns — the quiet workhorse of product video.

Cool, clear, filtered water. It's great to be able to enjoy it from the convenience of your home — and even better when you can enjoy it straight from a single tap anytime you please. This is the GE Under-Sink High Flow Water Filtration System, and today we're going to show you how easy it is to install in your own kitchen or virtually any other home sink. Everything you need, except for a few tools, comes with the kit. Before beginning, please read the safety instructions posted in your kit's installation manual. Let's get started.

Decide if yours is a right-hand or left-hand installation. The easiest way to install is to replace an existing soap dispenser or spray attachment. But if needed or desired, you can cut a 1 1/4 inch hole in the sink top or counter to install the new filtration system and control knob. We're going to do a right-hand install.

Be sure to first close the water shut-off valve, and then open the faucet to drain the pipes. Now, disconnect the cold water line at the supply valve. Hand-tighten the angle stop valve adapter onto the cold water valve. Finish tightening a half turn with an adjustable wrench — be careful not to over-tighten or cross-thread. Insert the one-foot-long yellow tube fully into the angle stop valve adapter. Find the T fitting and insert the top of the one-foot yellow tube into the bottom opening. Insert the four-foot yellow tube into one side of the T fitting and the three-foot yellow tube into the other side. Pull firmly on all tubes to be sure they're secure. Now, find the cold water line adapter and hand-tighten it into the cold water line from the faucet. Finish tightening with two adjustable wrenches, being careful not to over-tighten. Insert the three-foot orange tube fully into the line adapter.

Now, let's install the control valve. If the control valve is installed on the right-hand side, like this one, connect the four-foot-long blue tube to the port marked number 2. Connect the three-foot-long yellow tube from the T fitting to port number 1. Now, connect the three-foot-long orange tube to port F on the bottom. Pull to make sure all the connections are secure.

Now, let's place the control valve onto the sink. Thread a locking nut at least three-quarters toward the bottom of the valve. Then add one rubber gasket. Be sure the electric wire is in the wire groove and under the nut and washer. With the F port label facing toward you and the wire groove facing the back of the cabinet, insert the control valve up through the sink opening. You will probably need some assistance here to hold it in place while you place the second rubber gasket onto the control valve, followed by the decorative nut, turning fully until it stops. It will only take about two turns, so do not over-tighten. Beneath the sink, turn the locking nut clockwise to tighten until it is firmly secure against the sink. The F port label should still be facing you after the locking nut is tight. Now, insert the control knob — also known as the filtration controller — into the valve body. It has only one correct position, so rotate it slowly until you feel it drop into place. Push down firmly to snap into place.

Now you can install the timer box. Simply install two AA batteries, connect the wiring, and mount in an accessible area near the under-sink control valve. Next, pick a location to mount the filter unit under the sink. It should be easily accessible, with at least four inches of clearance between the bottom of the canisters and the floor of the cabinet. Also allow at least seven inches from the front of the cabinet to allow proper routing of tubing. The easiest way to mount is to remove the cover from the system and use it as your mounting template to mark your screw locations. Insert the four-foot-long yellow tube into the left side of the system — it is marked inlet. Insert the four-foot-long blue tube into the right side of the system — it is marked outlet.

So now we're ready to try it out. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks. If everything is good, you need to do an initial system flush. To do that, turn on the cold water, turn the control knob toward the faucet, and allow the water to run for 11 gallons, or about 10 minutes. The last thing is to reset the timer by holding the reset button on the timer box for about five seconds. You'll see the ring in the base of the control knob light for five seconds.

This is your new GE Under-Sink High Flow Water Filtration System — a convenient way to enjoy clean, pure water at the turn of a knob. Filtered water anytime you want it, for cooking and drinking. Cheers!
