 Operation and Maintenance 

 

Operation 
The  standard  use  reduces  to  withdrawal  of  water  from  the  faucet.  Automatic  re-fill  of  the 
storage tank is done automatically.  
 
 

Maintenance 

Your  RO  system  contains  filters  and  membranes  which  must  be  replaced  periodically  for 
proper operation. The following intervals are recommended: 
 
Sediment filter  

approx. 6 - 12 months 

Carbon filter   

approx. 6 - 12 months 

RO-Membrane 

approx. 36 months 

 
In  case  the  re-fill  of  the  storage  tank  takes  significantly  longer  than  usually,  this  might 
indicate the necessity to exchange the pre-filters.  
In case of chlorine odour from the filtered water the carbon post filter must be changed. 
The  RO-membrane  must  be  exchanged  in  the  amount  of  totally  dissolved  solids  (TDS)  is 
increasing significantly above the values measured with the newly installed system.  
 
 

 

10) Exchange of filters & RO-membrane 

  

 
CAUTION: 
Any Replacement filters or membranes not recommended by the factory can 
cause severe damage to the system and void all warranties. 
 
IMPORTANT: Sanitizing is necessary after servicing inner parts of the system.  
 

  
How do I change the Filtration cartridges?    
 
To change the pre-filters, stage 1-3, follow these instructions: 
 

1. Shut off the feed water to the system by turning handle of brass water feeder to 
close position. 
2. Empty water from the storage tank by opening faucet. 
3. Then close tank ball valve. 
4. Empty water from the RO unit by opening RO water faucet. 

 
NOTE: 
Check for leaks daily for the first week after installation 
IMPORTANT: Always close cold water feeder valve if system is not observed in order to 
avoid water damages in case the RO unit or the water supply is leaking. We recommend you 
to install a water alarm system at the cold water supply in order to detect when your RO unit 
is leaking. A water alarm system can shut your cold water supply to the system if it detects 
water outside the RO system. You can order a water alarm system from our shop: Item No 
18599.
