INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
See page 7 and 8 for illustration
IMPORTANT: If water pressure exceeds 90 psi you must install a pressure regulator.
IMPORTANT: Some RO’s use quick connect plastic fittings, to work properly the tubing must be smooth, cut
straight and inserted completely into the fitting. If tubing is scarred, cut at an angle or not inserted all the way
there is a higher possibility of leaks.
STEP #1: Select a convenient location for faucet. Make sure the bottom of faucet is accessible for making the
line connection and securing faucet to sink.
STEP #2: Drill hole for faucet, regular faucet requires ½” hole, air gap faucets require 1” holes (Optional
faucets might require different size holes).
STEP #3: With water turned off install EZ adapter between angle stop and sink, make sure that ball valve with
1/8” MPT is installed on easy adapter.
STEP #4: Select location for drain saddle, the best location is the horizontal section of drain pipe. If there is
none, locate the drain saddle just above the water line in drain trap to prevent dripping sound. Drill ¼” hole
and position drain saddle hole and gasket over the hole drilled in pipe.
Note: If the hole in the pipe and the hole in the drain saddle are not lined up, the RO will not function properly.
STEP #5: Mount the RO where it can be serviced properly and easily.
STEP #6: Connect ball valve to tank using Teflon tape. (If not already connected)
STEP #7: Connect the yellow line to the EZ adapter ball valve.
Connect red line to storage tank.
Connect black line to drain saddle (For non air gap installation).
Connect ¼” black line to small barb on bottom of faucet (For air gap installation).
Connect the 3/8” black line to large barb on faucet and connect other side to drain saddle
(Make sure that there are no kinks or excessive amount of 3/8” tubing, because this tubing is only gravity feed)
STEP #8: Disconnect yellow tubing from feed side of membrane housing. Turn on supply valve and run water
till it runs clear. Now shut off water supply and connect yellow tubing back to membrane housing. See page 9 *
START UP: Open inlet valve, wait for unit to pressurize and check for leaks.
Let unit fill up tank (approx 4-6 hours) then dump 1st tank of water to flush out post filter. (Only if tank is not
pre filled)
