General Information (continued)
Check with local public works department for plumbing and sanitation codes. Follow their guides as you install the
HANS™ Premium Water Model 2 / Model 2R. Follow local codes if they differ with guides in this manual.
In Massachusetts, plumbing code 248-CMR 3.00 and 10.00 shall be adhered. Consult with a licensed
plumber.
Avoid installing this system in direct sunlight. Excessive heat may cause distortion or other damage to non-metallic
parts.
If installing the Model 2 / Model 2R outdoors, do not locate where it will be exposed to wet weather, direct sunlight,
or extreme hot or cold temperatures. The system requires an ambient temperature range of 35 to 120 degrees
Fahrenheit.
The Model 2 / Model 2R has a non-metallic valve system. Installing it on metal plumbing will break electrical
continuity, which may interrupt grounding for your home. You must restore electrical continuity in your metal
plumbing system. Please refer to the installation manual (P/N 8910) for further information.
WARNING:
An air gap should be plumbed to state and regional codes and used to connect the reject water
outlet to a drain connection.
While this Reverse Osmosis system contains replaceable treatment components to raise pH, RO water can
lower pH. As this can be corrosive to some plumbing materials, care should be taken to properly maintain
your system.
