Starting Your Installation
1. Shut Off the Water
a. Locate the valve in the cold water feed line you use for the supply.
Accidentally hooking up the system to the hot water supply line will permanently
damage the membrane (see conditions for operation). To assure you are using the
cold water line, turn on both the hot and cold faucet. After the water is warm to the
touch, feel the pipes under the sink. It will be easy to identify the hot and cold pipes.
b.
Close the cold water valve. Turn on the cold water faucet only to assure that the line is completely
shut off and the line is drained. If no shut off valve is located under the sink, or if water continues to
come out of the faucet, turn off the main supply at the entry to the house.
