Equipment Set-Up and Installation

Equipment Location  

Prior to installing the ScaleGard

TM

 HP Reverse Osmosis System, carefully plan the installation location for all system components. 

Position the ScaleGard HP reverse osmosis base unit and the pressure tank in desired locations as per (Figure 1).  

1.  Access to feedwater, drain line connections and electrical outlet is required.

2.  The ScaleGard HP System must be accessible and have at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) clearance on all sides of the system to facilitate servicing. 

An additional 10 inches (25.4 cm) will be needed on both sides of the ScaleGard HP system to allow for the future installation of the SGHP Pre-
EXP or the SGHP RO-EXP manifolds.

3.  The pressure tank should be installed within 15 ft (4.6 m) of the ScaleGard HP reverse osmosis base unit and 0.5" or larger tubing diameter is 

required to complete installation.
