Choosing a Mounting Location
When considering a location for the installation of the
RO System, consider the following factors:
Light Sources
1. Most of the components of this system are plastic and
are subject to damage by ultraviolet light from the sun
and other sources such as metal halide lighting.
2. Algae is more likely to thrive inside the clear filter housings
when exposed to bright light.
3. Avoid installing this unit in bright light or direct sunlight.
Temperature Extremes
1. The unit must be kept out of areas that are subject to freezing
temperatures.
2. High temperatures greater than 100° F (38° C) must be
avoided. If the unit is used outside, avoid putting the
system in direct sunlight or connecting it to a
garden hose that may be exposed to sunlight.
