Installation of
Water Supply Connector
Make sure that you hook up to the cold water tap. Determine the location for the installation of
the RO system. Avoid locations where the system might come in contact with hot water pipes
or other hazards like sunlight.
The water supply connector comes with the Forbes Under Sink RO unit in the installation kit.
1)
Disconnect the water supply
line from the cold water tap,
attach and tighten water supply
connector assembly.
2)
If you install above the sink,
then remove your existing
overhead water tank top, attach
and tighten water supply
connector assembly.
NOTE:
Use an insert when connecting the tube to the faucet.

Your Forbes Under Sink RO unit comes complete with a long reach faucet.
The product water faucet may be installed on any flat surface at least 2
