Minimal work is required to keep your BEV system in peak operating condition. Simply follow a regular
schedule of flushing and replace the filter modules as recommended. These simple steps will insure
your unit consistently produces ultra-pure water meeting BEV standards.
Take care of your BEV system and it will provide many years of healthful drinking and cooking water
for your entire family.
FLUShiNG
Flushing is the single most important maintenance function needed to keep your system operating
at peak efficiency. This simple operation only takes a few minutes and extends the service life of the
reverse osmosis membrane.
1) Flushing is only possible when
the system is filling. (The gauge
will read zero when the system is
idle.) Drain off some water at the
pure water faucet until you hear
water begin to flow and there is
pressure on the gauge.
2) Move the handle on the flush
valve to the “Open - Flush” posi-
tion. This will allow water to flow
rapidly across the RO membrane,
washing away concentrated
contaminants.
3) Set a kitchen timer so you do not
forget to return the flush valve to the closed position.
Flushing once per week for 5 minutes is ideal.
If you forget to flush the system for an extended
period of time perform an exhaustive flush by leaving the flush valve open for 20 minutes.
If your unit has not been used for more than one week (e.g. while you are on vacation), drain the
storage tank (use the water for watering plants, etc.) then flush the membrane for 5-10 minutes as
described above.
FiLtER REpLACEMENt
After 12 months of use, it is time to replace the sediment pre-filter, the twin GAC carbon filters,
and the Deionization Module to insure your system continues to produce water within BEV param-
eters. Replacement modules can be ordered directly from Pure Water Systems via our web site at
