IMPORTANT: 

Before installing this reverse osmosis system, 

make certain your water supply complies with the following 

operating specifications. Failure to do so may reduce the 

effectiveness of the system and will void the warranty.

If the hardness of your water is above 

20

 gpg (

342

 mg/L), lime 

scale will build up rapidly on the membrane. Scale buildup will 
plug the membrane and make the system ineffective. We do not 
recommend these reverse osmosis systems to be used with 
water in excess of 

20

 gpg (

342

 mg/L) hardness.

A maximum total level of approximately 0.01 ppm sulfide, iron 

or manganese is permissible. See your local dealer to reduce 
these substances in your water.
