You can now turn your home’s emergency cold water shut off valve back to its “ON” position. Please
note: By turning the cold water shut off valve back to its “ON” position you are allowing for the flow of
cold water to the system. The system’s three pre-filters will then fill with water which will come out of
the blue tube that is placed in your kitchen sink.
Allow the water to run through your system for 20 minutes to ensure proper flushing of the three pre-
filters. After the 20 minute pre-filter flush, turn the manual shut off valve, found on the feed water line
(see Fig 9), 90 degrees to the tubing as this will stop the flow of water to your system.
Next, following the diagram below, remove the blue tubing inserted into the “OUTPUT” (Right Side) of
the prefilters that you just used to flush the three prefilters.
To remove tubing from any point on
your system simply follow this dia-
gram (Fig. 10) You can easily remove
the tubing from any fitting on your
system by removing the blue “C” clip
which will expose the “collet”. Then
simply push in the collet so that it is
flush with the fitting and then pull
out the tubing.
Please note: In the future, be sure
to de-pressurize your system before removing tubing from any fitting on your system. To de-pressurize
your system you simply need to turn the manual shut off valve, found on the feed water line, to its 90
degree (OFF) position, then turn your tank top valve, found on top of the water holding tank, to the 90
degree (OFF) position and then press down on your faucet. De-pressurizing your system is extremely
easy and takes just seconds.
NOTE: At
this
stage of the installation you have not yet installed the water holding tank or the faucet
and therefore, by simply turning the manual shut off valve to its 90 degree position, you have success-
fully depressurized the system and you can now remove the blue tubing used to flush the pre-filters
from the “OUTPUT” (right side) of the pre-filters.
