Check and comply with local plumbing codes as you plan,
then install a cold feed (supply) water fitting. Refer to the
Specifications page for supply water requirements. The fit-
ting must provide a leak-tight connection to the RO 1/4" tub-
ing. A typical connection using the included water supply fit-
ting is shown in Figure 7.
NOTE: Local code may dictate which type of water fit-
ting is used. Consult a plumber if you are not familiar
with local codes or plumbing procedures.
NOTE: Codes in the state of Massachusetts require
installation by a licensed plumber and do not permit
the use of saddle valves.
If you live in the state of Massachusetts, review plumb-
ing code 248-CMR of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts before proceeding with the installation.

ting:
1
. Close the house main water shutoff valve and open
faucets to drain water from the sink cold water pipe.
