Note!
Please avoid contact of any liquid to the compressed textile. Failure to do so will activate the textile
and shut the incoming water. Textile will not work if plastic wrap is not removed.
Please do not re-use Leak Stop pads once activated.
4.
Take the plastic wrap off of the Compressed
Textile then place the Textile inside the Leak Stop
Valve as shown above. (You may wish to insert the
Compressed Textile after System Startup is complete
in case of early monitored leaks).

Position the Leak Stop Valve on the floor
of the same cabinet
(so any leaking water will
make contact with the valve)
beside the system
and use the two screws to secure the Valve to the
cabinet floor. (Place Leak Stop Valve on the floor
beside the Elite RO).
3.
Connect one end of the Red Tubing into the Feed Water Adapter Valve and connect the other end of the Red
Tubing into the hole marked “IN” on the Leak Stop Valve. Then connect one end of the White Tubing into the hole
marked “OUT” on the Leak Stop Valve and connect the other end of the White Tubing into the connection marked
“FEED” located in the back of the system.

The Drain Saddle is used to connect the Black Drain Line to the drain pipe under the sink. The Drain Saddle is
designed to fit around a standard 1.5 inch OD (outer diameter) drain pipe. The Drain Saddle should always be installed
above (before) the P-Trap and on a straight vertical or horizontal section of pipe.
To avoid clogging the drain line with debris do not install the Drain Saddle after the drain pipe meets a garbage
disposal or dishwasher drain. Refer to the image below to see ideal Drain Saddle locations.
1.
Once you have found where your Drain Saddle will go on the Drain Pipe make a mark for the opening there with a
marker or pencil.
2.
Use your drill and an appropriate 1/4 inch (6.35mm) drill bit to drill a hole at your mark. Be careful to drill through
one side of the pipe and stabilize your pipes while drilling to avoid damaging them.
3.
Find the half of the Drain Clamp with a hole in its center. Then remove the backing from the Foam Gasket (the
foam circle at the center of the Gasket is disposable). Make sure to align the Foam Gasket hole with the Drain Clamp
hole and stick the adhesive side of the Gasket to the inner wall of the Drain Clamp half.
4.
Take the half of the Drain Clamp without the Foam Gasket and insert a nut into the recess on each side.
5.
Position both halves of the Drain Clamp on the drain pipe with the clamp’s opening aligned over the drilled hole.
The Foam Gasket will be between the drain clamp and the drilled hole. Push your 1/4 inch drill bit through both holes
(the Drain Clamp hole and the hole in the Drain Pipe) and remove to verify that the clamp is properly aligned with the
hole you drilled.
6.
Secure the Drain Clamp halves together in place on the Drain Pipe. Screw the bolts through the Drain Clamp half
with the Foam Gasket and into the half you installed the nuts into. (Do not over tighten. Make sure there is equal
space on both sides between the Drain Clamp halves.)
