NOTE: When cutting the polytubing make
clean, square cuts, failing to do so could result
in poor connections and possible leaks.
NOTE: The lowest point of the line should be
the point of connection to the Drain Clamp.
There should be no sag in the line as this may
cause excessive noise as the reject water is
flowing to drain.
Firmly press one end of the tubing over the
3
/

"
drain outlet hose barb on the Air Gap Faucet.
Allow the tubing to relax, then press firmly
again to insure proper seating. No connectors
are required when attaching hose to Hose
Barbs. Route the tubing to the Drain Clamp
and trim to length.
•Refer to Fig. 4, page 7. To connect the Drain
Tubing, install the Compression Nut and the
Insert.
•Insert the tubing into the Drain Clamp and
tighten the Compression Nut.
D. R.O. Manifold Assembly Installation
Locate the site per Sec. III, C.3, page 5. Various
installation sites will require different types of
mounting fasteners; be sure the fastener selected
will provide a firm, solid mounting. A support
panel may be necessary on thin cabinet walls or to
span between wall studs on particleboard or
drywall.
Do not drill through exterior cabinet walls or
leave sharp wood screw points exposed in readily
accessible cabinet interiors.
The close proximity of a dishwasher or a trash
compactor may require special fabrication of a
mounting plate.
1. The installation bracket will accept either #10
or #12 (5mm) mounting screws spaced on 6"
(15 cm) centers. Allow at least 4" (10 cm) of
clearance beneath the filter housings to
accommodate filter changes. Mark the two
locations (the bracket can be used as a
template). Install the screws and tighten them
until the heads are about
5
/
8
" from the wall.
2. Locate the ¼" Red Feed Water Tubing.
Remove the red plug from the fitting labelled
“In” on the manifold and insert the tubing.
Reference the special supplement sheet in the
carton for proper connection of all tubing and
removal of plugs. Run the tubing along its
course to the Feed Water Saddle Valve, trim to
length. (Refer to Fig. 1, page 1.)
Refer to Fig. 3, page 6. To the end of the red
polytube install the Compression Nut, the
Plastic Ferrule, and the Insert. Connect to the
Feed Water Saddle Valve.
3. Locate the ¼" Black Drain Tubing. Remove
the black plug from the fitting labelled “Drain”
on the manifold and insert the tubing. The
end of the Black Drain Tubing that should be
inserted into the “Drain” port will have a red
drain restrictor in it. Run the tubing along its
course to the ¼" Hose Barb on the Dispensing
Faucet, trim to length and connect by firmly
pressing over the barb. Allow the tubing to
relax, then press firmly again to insure proper
seating.
4. Locate the 3/8" Blue Product Water Tubing.
Remove the blue plug from the elbow
connected to the fitting labelled “Out” on the
manifold and insert the tubing. Run the tubing
along its course to the Dispensing Faucet and
trim to length. Push the tubing into the faucet
connector. The fitting will grab the tubing and
hold and seal it in place. Make sure the tubing
is pressed all the way in past the O–ring to
create a pressure tight connection.
NOTE: If you want to pull the tubing out for
some reason, push the ring around the tubing
up and pull the tubing out.
5. Locate the 3/8" Yellow Tubing. Remove the
yellow plug from the elbow connected to the
fitting on top of the manifold labelled “Tank”
and insert the tubing. (Refer to Fig. 1, page 1.)
6. Hang the Manifold Assembly on the mounting
screws and tighten. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
E. Position the Drinking Water Holding Tank and
Make the Final Hose Connections.
1. Check the tank precharge pressure. Make sure
it is between 5 to 7 psi. If not, use a bicycle
hand pump or other pump to bring the
pressure up to the 5 to 7 psi range.
2. Pull the cap/plug off the top of the tank where
the Tank Shut–Off should go. (Refer to Fig. 1,
page 1.)
3. Wrap the white teflon tape, included in the
box, three times around the 1/4" male outlet
thread. Wrap in the direction of the threads
(clockwise, when looking down on the holding
tank). The tape will act as a thread sealant.
Screw on the Holding Tank Shut–Off Valve.
