SYSTEM INSTALLATION & INITIALIZATION:
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. Avoid installing this unit in an area where it may be subjected to
bright light or direct sunlight, as algae is more likely to thrive inside
the clear filter housings when exposed to bright light.
3. The unit must be kept out of areas that are subject to freezing
temperatures.
4. 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.
5. Attach the garden hose adapter (connected to the black tubing) to your
cold water source. Never run hot water (greater than 100° F/38° C)
through the system.
6. Place the yellow concentrate (waste) tubing and the blue purified
(product) water tubing temporarily into a drain. Do not restrict flow
from these lines.
7.
Open the cold water supply valve. The pressure should not exceed 80 psi.
8.
Run the system for one hour to flush any membrane residue.
9. Check the system to ensure that all fittings are tight and leak-free
before leaving the system unattended. (If anything is leaking,
contact SpectraPure for assistance.)
NOTE: If the unit is not used for several days, run the system for
about 10 minutes before collecting any water. This will flush
out any stale water in the system.
10. Finish the installation by directing the yellow line to a drain.
11. Direct the blue line to a collection reservoir.
