Preparation
1. Determine location
- Determine the location for installation of the RO faucet.
o
You may use the existing predrilled hole on the sink. Make
sure the washer is big enough to cover the hole.
o
If you drill a new hole on the countertop or sink, make sure
that drilling the hole will not damage any pipe or wiring
underneath the countertop or sink.
o
Make sure the faucet base fits flat against the surface at the
selected location so the gasket will seal.
o
the faucet stud will be accessible from below once the hole is
completed.
- Determine the location for the water storage tank.
o
The pressure storage tank can stand up straight or lie down at
the desired location.
o
Maximum distance between storage tank and the RO faucet
is 15 feet. The system will produce a faster flow at the RO
faucet with shortest tubing from the tank to the RO faucet.
