INSTALLATION
l
oCation
1. The water purifier is intended for indoor use only. The water purifier is designed to mount horizontally. The water purifier
should be protected from the elements and from temperatures below freezing. The ambient temperature, in the area
surrounding the water purifier, should be between 35
o
F and 100
o
F.
2. Electrical power supplied to the water purifier
MUST
match power requirements listed on the water purifier. Use of a voltage
surge protector is recommended.
3.
Install water purifier within 48” of a known good ground. Water Purifier will need to be installed
into approved ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) receptacle. Where a 2-prong or unprotected 3-prong receptacle is
encountered, it must be replaced by a properly grounded Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) receptacle. Installation must
be in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local codes and ordinances by a qualified electrician.
4. The water purifier should be located in a dry, well-lit area, which provides enough room to perform routine maintenance.
This includes a minimum distance of one chamber length from the chamber end, to allow for cleaning and/or the
changing of the lamp and quartz sleeve as well as a minimum of 6” on the opposite end of the water purifier. Minimum
clearance to floor 18’’.
5. The water purifier should always be located closest to the point of use. This reduces the chance of the purified water being
re-contaminated by bacteria in the water distribution system after the water purifier.
6.
As with any water handling device, the water purifier should be located in an area where any possible
condensation or leakage from the water purifier, any purifier accessory and/or plumbing will not result in damage to the area
surrounding the water purifier.
For added protection, it is recommended that a suitable drain pan be installed under
the purifier. The drain pan must be plumbed to an adequate, free flowing drain to prevent water damage in event of
a leak. There are numerous leak detection/flood stop devices, available on the market today, designed to stop flow
of water, reducing the chance of water damage due to leakage. For more details regarding leak prevention and/or
limiting damages due to leaks please contact factory.
7. The water purifier should be located after all other water devices, such as De-ionizers, Water Softeners, Carbon Filters,
Pre-Filters, Reverse Osmosis, Pressure Tanks, and Pumps. This elimates the possibility of the purified water being re-
contaminated by bacteria in any of these units.
