Sanitize the System (Recommended)

Sanitizing is recommended immediately after installation of the Reverse 
Osmosis system. It’s also recommended after servicing inner parts. It is 
important  that  the  person  installing  or  servicing  the  system  have  clean 
hands while handling inner parts of the system.

Note: The bleach must be removed from the system before drinking 
the water. See Flush System instructions on the next page.

Sanitize System

Flush System and Check Operation

1. Check all connections to be sure they are secure.
2. Turn on feed water valve and check for leaks. (turn off and correct 
leaks if leaks occur).
3. Close faucet and wait 5 minutes to see if leaks result. (turn off and 
correct leaks if leaks occur).

Start-up

1. Open faucet handle and allow tank to completely drain. Do not use 
this water. (When tank is empty, faucet will steadily drip. This is the 
rate the R/O system processes water).
2. Close faucet and reinspect system for leaks.
3.  Allow  system  to  process  water  for  approximately  four  hours,  at 
which point tank will be practically full.
4. Open faucet again and allow tank to empty for a second time. Do 
not use this water.
5. Wait another four hours to allow tank to re-fill.

Flush System and Check Operation

1. Turn off the water supply to the RO system and close the ball valve on 
the storage tank.
2. Open the RO faucet.
3.  Use  an  eyedropper  (not  included)  and  common  household  bleach 
(5.25%).
4. Add  3  ml.  of  bleach  into  open  end  of  3/8"  tube  connected  to  tank. 
Handle bleach according to bleach manufacturer’s recommendations.
5. Connect tubing back to tank ball valve.
6. Sanitizing the system will be completed during the Flush System and 
Check Operation steps on the following page.
