1 - SAFETY GUIDES
Read and follow all steps and guides carefully before installing and using your reverse osmosis system.
Do not use this product to make safe drinking water from non-potable water sources. Do not use the system
on microbiologically unsafe water, or water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
This reverse osmosis system contains replaceable components (membrane elements). These components
are critical for the effective reduction of total dissolved solids and specific contaminants that are listed in
thep product data sheet.
The reverse osmosis system does not have a monitoring device for contaminants. To verify that the system
is performing satisfactorily the product water should be tested periodically by the system’s installing dealer
or a certified laboratory, every six months. The laboratory should be certified for testing the specific
contaminants of concern. For a listing of certified laboratories, contact local regulatory agencies.
Consult your local public works department for plumbing and sanitation codes. Follow your local codes if
they differ from this manual.
The reverse osmosis system works on water pressures of 2.8 bar (40 psi) minimum to 5.5 bar (80 psi)
maximum. Water pressure can be reduced by installing a pressure reducing valve in the water supply pipe
to the RO system. A booster pump should be used for low pressure applications.
Do not install the reverse osmosis system in extreme hot or cold temperatures. Temperature of the water
supply to the reverse osmosis system must be between 4°C (40°F) and 38°C (100°F). Do not install on hot
water lines.
The reverse osmosis membranes contain a food grade preservative for storage and shipment. All new
membranes require a minimum 2 hour rinse to properly rinse out the preservative. The preservative is not
harmful but makes the product water taste objectionable.
Rinsing the membrane also acts as a performance conditioner. All new membranes will reach their stable
maximum performance after 8 hours of rinsing.

Your reverse osmosis system is a water treatment unit. It uses water pressure to reverse a natural physical
process called osmosis. Water, under pressure, is forced through a semi-permeable membrane to filter out
minerals and impurities. Treated drinking water goes to the faucet. Minerals and impurities are sent to the drain
with RO waste water.
The system includes replaceable filters and membrane elements. The prefilter reduces sand, silt, dirt, rust
particles, other sediments, and chlorine from the water supply before they enter the RO membrane elements. The
postfilter reduces any tastes and/or odours that may remain in the water after passing through the RO membrane
elements.
Before installing the RO system
• Best performance of the system will be achieved when the incoming water has been treated (softened).
• The water coming into the system must be within certain limits for sediments, pressure, etc. Refer to the
specifications to determine if your installation is within the limits.
• A water quality analysis can be performed to determine if incoming water requires any treatment. Contact your
dealer/ installer.
• The filters and membrane elements in the RO system need to be replaced on a regular basis. Follow the
instructions for replacement that are in this manual.
NOTE: For optimal system performance, use the system for at least 2 minutes continuously each day.
WARNING: The RO system is designed to work without the aid of a pressurized storage tank. Installation of a
pressurized storage tank will negatively affect system performance.
Tools and materials required
• Adjustable wrench, and larger adjustable jaw pliers or pipe wrench to fit sink
drain
• Saw for cutting drain pipe
• Slotted and Phillips head screwdrivers
• Tubing cutters
• Electric drill and bits for cutting the faucet mounting hole
NOTE: Note that some sinks will have a pre-drilled hole with a plug for the faucet.

Location of system
The reverse osmosis system is designed for installation under a sink, usually in the kitchen or bathroom. The RO
assembly can be placed on the cabinet floor in any position that does not apply pressure on the disconnect
elbows. The RO product water faucet installs on the sink or on the countertop next to the sink.
The RO system can also be located in a location away from the faucet. A nearby water source and drain point are
required.
NOTE:
• Keep the lengths of tubing short. Longer lengths of tubing will decrease system performance. A booster pump
can be used on the supply line.
• All plumbing should be done in accordance with state and local plumbing codes.
Some codes may require installation by a licensed plumber. Check with the local plumbing authority prior to
installation.
WARNING: All components and tubing should be located in an area which is not exposed to freezing
temperatures. Do not expose unit or tubing to direct sunlight.
Water Supply: To provide supply water to the RO system inlet, a feed supply fitting is required or install pipe fittings
as needed. The feed water valve should be located as close to the manifold assembly as possible. USE A POTABLE
COLD WATER SUPPLY ONLY. Softened water is preferred as it will extend the life of the RO membrane element.
Drain Point: A suitable drain point is needed for reject water from the RO system. A floor drain, laundry tub,
standpipe, sump, etc. are all acceptable. If discharging into the utility sink or standpipe, an air gap of greater than
1/2” above the flood rim must be provided.
A sink p-trap drain adapter is included to install as an optional drain point where codes permit.
Do not connect the system drain line to the dishwasher drain or near the garbage disposal. Back pressure from
these units may cause the air gap to overflow.
Faucet: The faucet should be placed near the sink where drinking water is normally obtained. Convenience of use
(filling of water pitchers and glasses) and an open area beneath the faucet under the sink for attaching product
and drain tubing are considerations.
A 2” diameter flat surface is required above and below the installation site. The thickness of mounting surface
should not exceed 1“1/4. Avoid any strengthening webbing on the underside of the sink.
RO Manifold Assembly: The manifold can be installed on either the right or left side of the under-sink area or
cabinet. Installation in the basement is also an option. One possible location is near the laundry/ utility sink where
cold potable water and drain access are close. The location chosen should allow adequate clearance and
accessibility for membrane element changes.
In restricted under-sink areas, it may be easier to install the faucet first. Allow adequate tubing lengths for final
system placement.

3 - INSTALLATION
STEP 1: Install cold water supply valve
STEP 2: Install drain adapter
STEP 3: Install faucet
STEP 4: Make tubing connections
STEP 5: Install RO assembly
STEP 6: Put system into operation
NOTE: Consult a licensed plumber if you are not familiar with plumbing procedures.
Step 1: Install cold water supply valve
Comply with local plumbing codes. A typical connection using a water supply valve is shown in Figure 5.
Water supply valve
NOTE: Be sure to turn off the water supply and open a low
faucet to drain the pipe.
Cold water pipes vary in size and style. The installer will
determine the type of valve that will be used. Install a valve on
the cold water supply pipe to adapt 1/2” OD tubing. If threaded
fittings are used, be sure to use pipe joint compound or Teflon
tape on outside threads. Turn the valve off.
Step 2: Install drain adapter
Follow the instructions in the Appendix for installation of the
Drain Boa™, if used.
The drain adapter is designed to fit 1”1/2 (3.8 cm) sink drain
pipe. The adapter installs directly to the sink tailpiece.
Step 3: Install faucet
A. Prepare mounting hole
1. Select a location for the faucet. Be sure it will fit flat against
the sink or counter and that there is space underneath for
tubing.
2. If drilling is needed, make a 1”1/2 diameter hole.
WARNING: To avoid damaging a sink, consult a qualified
plumber or installer for the proper method of drilling
holes in porcelain or stainless steel.
B. Assemble faucet
The tubing and fasteners are assembled to the faucet before the faucet is placed in position. This can be
done above the sink.
1. Slide the decorative ring over the tubing connections and up to the bottom of the faucet.
2. Slide the gasket over the tubing connections and up to the bottom of the faucet.
3. Slide the standoff onto the threaded tube, followed by the standard washer, the lock washer and nut.
4. Screw the threaded hose connector on the end of the threaded tube.

5. Connect the blue 3/8” product tubing by firmly pushing it into the connector.
6. Push the black 3/8” tubing onto the small hose barb. The red 1/2” tubing is pushed onto the large hose
barb.
7. Put the faucet into position.
8. The horseshoe clip is positioned around the threaded pipe
under the sink and above the standoff. This clip should
engage the tubing connected to the air gap.
9. Tighten the nut against the clip to hold the faucet in position.
Step 4: Make tubing connections
The connections to the faucet should be complete, the
remaining connections are:
• Feed connection-clear tubing from feed valve to white elbow
connector
• Drain connection-either red tubing from the air gap or black
tubing from grey elbow connector will attach to the drain
adapter
•Permeate connection-blue tubing from faucet to blue elbow
connection
• Attach the fittings to the manifold
A typical connection is shown in Figure 7: Side View and
Cutaway of Tubing Fitting.
NOTE: For optimal system performance, we recommend using
tubing lengths that are as short as possible.
Postfilter
Install the postfilter in line with the blue permeate tubing.
Make sure flow direction aligns with water path. Secure
tubing with collet lock clips.
Drain adapter (optional)
The drain adapter has a rubber inlet that accepts the 3/8”
black drain tube or the 1/2” red tube. The 3/8” black tubing will
connect here if the faucet is not using the air gap module.
When the tubing is in position, use the supplied hose clamps
to secure the connection.
NOTE: When sliding tubing into the drain adapter inlet, wet the
tubing. Water will help the tubing slide into the rubber
inlet.
Feed pressure gauge
The supplied pressure gauge can be connected to the feed
line to monitor system feed pressure. For proper system
performance, the dynamic feed pressure must be between
2.76 bar (40 psi) and 5.52 bar (80 psi) when the system is in
operation.
CAUTION: The feed pressure gauge is intended for use only during installation and troubleshooting of the RO
system. The pressure gauge should be removed during normal system operation because some
regulatory agencies did not evaluate the RO system with the feed pressure gauge in place.
Step 5: Install RO assembly
The RO assembly includes the following components: sumps (3), support leg, prefilter, RO membrane
elements (2), and postfilter. The tubing is attached to the manifold by the elbow connectors. When choosing
a location for the system, allow enough tubing for it to be moved for periodic servicing of the filters and
membrane elements (Figure 8: RO assembly).

3 - INSTALLATION
WARNING: Do not attempt to mount/hang the system. Do not
try to drill mounting holes anywhere on the
system.
If putting above ground/cabinet level, a sturdy,
permanent shelf is recommended.
Recommended placement positions
The RO assembly should be positioned in one of two ways.
The first position is with the unit standing upright using the
support leg with the sumps horizontal. The tubing is directed to
provide the best fit.
The second position, sets the unit on end so the sumps are
pointing up. The tubing is directed upward and the locking bar
is down to lock the tubing connections. See Figure 9: System
Positions.
NOTE: Ensure that the support leg is installed on the sumps.
Connection lubrication
Connections with O-rings must be properly lubricated. The
following instructions describe the method and locations for
lubrication.
Six packets of silicone lube are supplied. One packet should
be completely used to lubricate the O-ring contact surfaces in
the 3 manifold ports and 2 RO membrane locations (Figure 10).
Follow figure 11 and lubricate the filter seat and the flat
surface below the threads for the 3 sump locations. Use a
complete packet of silicone for each sump location.
NOTE: To properly lubricate the O-ring contact area, a film of
clean silicone grease is applied. The film should cover
all of the surface area that the O-ring will slide over and
seal with. Do not use grease containing petroleum
products.

The table below shows the coding system for the fitting connections. Each fitting has a unique “keyed”
socket on the manifold. Each fitting also has a graphic symbol molded into the elbow with a corresponding
symbol on the manifold.
WARNING: Be sure to lubricate the manifold ports with silicone lubricant, prior to inserting the fittings into
manifold.
WARNING: Do not turn the incoming water valve on until the locking bar is in place. When all of the
connections have been made, use the locking bar to hold the fittings in position. Match the
symbols on the locking bar to the corresponding symbols on the manifold (Figure 12).
Step 6: System startup
1. Inspect all connections.
2. Position manifold horizontal with openings facing up.
3. Remove new membrane elements from plastic packaging.
The black and yellow tapes surrounding the membrane are an important part of the membrane element
and should not be removed.
CAUTION: Elements contain a foodgrade preservative. The use of sterile/latex gloves is recommended.
4. Lubricate all O-ring seats in the manifold that come in contact with the sump and element O-rings. Refer
to chapter "Connection Lubrication".
NOTE: To properly lubricate the O-ring contact area, a film of clean silicone grease is applied. The film
should cover all of the surface area that the O-ring will slide over and seal with. Do not use grease
containing petroleum products.
5. Securely insert O-ring end of membrane elements into manifold.
6. Remove prefilter from packaging. Check that gaskets are in place.
7. Place prefilter in manifold.
8. Replace sumps and tighten until it bottoms out.
Pressure test system
To check for leaks, the system must be filled with water and brought up to operating pressure.
1. Open cold water feed valve slowly. Run at 1/2 open for a minute, then open fully.
2. Open faucet until water runs.
3. Check for leaks.
NOTE: When the faucet is initially turned on, water may temporarily sputter from the air gap until the air is
purged. Allow 1 to 3 hours for any trapped air noise in the system to subside.
4. Purge the system. Open the faucet and run the water through the RO system for two to eight hours.
NOTE: A minimum of 2 hour flush is required to remove the food grade preservative. After 8 hours
performance will reach its stable maximum performance.
The RO system is now ready for use.

4 - TO CARE FOR THE RO SYSTEM
The components of the RO system are designed to function with minimal maintenance. However, the
membrane elements and filters will need to be replaced on a regular schedule.
For optimal performance the system should be flushed for 2 minutes if periods of inactivity extend past six
hours.
Replacement of prefilter and postfilter
The carbon/sediment prefilter reduces sediment and certain chemicals, such as chlorine, from the water.
Depending on water use and the amount of impurities, this filter should be replaced every six to twelve
months for point-of-use applications.
Whenever the prefilter is replaced, the postfilter should also be replaced.
Installations using more than 75,7 liter (20 gallons) product water per day should install external filters (not
supplied) to reduce chlorine and sediment larger than 10 microns.
Replacement of RO membrane elements
The functional life of the RO membrane elements will vary based on feed water quality. Product water
should be tested periodically to verify the membrane elements are performing properly. For most point-of-
use applications, the RO membrane elements should be replaced every two to four years.
NOTE: Softened water is recommended for optimal system performance and RO membrane element life.

5 - REPLACEMENT OF THE PREFILTER,
POSTFILTER, AND RO MEMBRANE ELEMENTS
1. Turn off the water supply to the RO System.
2. Reduce system water pressure by opening the faucet.
CAUTION: Even with the water supply turned off the membrane and prefilter sumps will contain a
considerable amount of water. By positioning the RO assembly in a sink or tub, most of the water
will be contained.
3. Disconnect locking bar and place the fittings (with tubing still connected) into a tub or bucket.
4. Move system into a contained area, such as a sink or tub.
5. Remove the support leg from the three sumps and unscrew the top sump as shown to access the prefilter
element. The support leg functions as a wrench to loosen the sump, Figure 13.
NOTE:
• There is no need to disconnect tubing from fittings on the
manifold. Remove locking bar and pull fittings out. Lubricate
O-rings with silicone prior to re-assembly.
• If changing only the prefilter and postfilter, the other sumps
do not need to be removed.
•If changing the membrane elements, the prefilter and
postfilter should also be changed.
6. Remove exhausted prefilter and discard.
CAUTION: The person handling the filters and membrane
elements must have clean hands to keep the
system sanitized. The use of sterile/latex gloves is
recommended.
7. If changing membrane elements:
