MAINTENANCE:
- SANITIZING SYSTEM -
( It is recommended that you sanitize the system once a year.)
1.
Turn tap water source off and remove all filters from the
system, including the RO membrane
2.
Mix together hot water, soap and a little bleach.
3.
Scrub filter housings and rinse with clean tap water to
remove
soap
and
bleach.
4.
Place filters back into housings and reconnect lines.
- TIPS FOR LONG MEMBRANE LIFE -
1.
Replacement of 0.5 micron sediment filter once every 6
months. This will prevent mem brane fouling due to silt or
sediment depositing on the membrane.
2.
Replacement of 0.5 micron carbon block filter at least once
every 6 months or when chlorine breakthrough occurs. This
will ensure good membrane life and protect the membrane
from
chlorine
damage.
3.
Membrane should not be operated at lower than the
recommended concentrate to purified water ratios, as
described
on
page
7.
4.
Operating reverse osmosis systems on softened feed
water greatly reduces the chances of membrane fouling.
5.
Use the optional flush valve kit after each use of the system
to help extend membrane life.
