Phanteks recommends you follow the steps below before you start your water loop setup
1. Test all your hardware before you start your water loop setup to make sure it is in working condition.
2. Plan out your loop to save some time.
3. Flush and rinse your water blocks with distilled water prior to use to ensure a clean loop.
4. Make sure that everything is unpowered and unplugged, either at the power supply end or hardware’s end before you
start your leak test.
5. Use paper towels under ttings and joints to avoid damage if there are leaks.
6. With the ll port open, run the loop for approximately 24 hours to completely bleed the air out of the loop.
