INSTALLATION STEPS

6

Cut Pipes

Cut pipe along the marked sections from step 
5 and clean ends of pipe. Ensure there are no 
burrs, sharp edges or deep scratches.

Configure System

Fit Rhino tank and additional optional  
add-ons into the system at this time.  
Screw Pre-Filter support bracket onto  
the wall and attach Pre-Filter. 
Properly connect system together 
accordingly (slip fittings, barbed fittings, 
NSF certified PVC glue, etc.). Ensure all 
parts are flowing through the "IN" port in 
the correct direction of water flow.

Final System Check

Once installation is complete, allow proper time for glue to dry according to 
manufacturer instructions. Then, slowly turn water on and inspect for leaks.
After inspecting for leaks, turn on the faucet closest to the installed unit  
and allow water to run for 5-10 minutes for the final flushing period.
