STEP 5:  SYSTEM START-UP 

1.

 

Make sure all tubing are not kinked. 

2.

 

Turn Tank Valve to OFF position.  

3.

 

Turn RO faucet lever to continuous flow position.  Lever points up.  

4.

 

Turn cold water supply main valve on slowly.  Also turn input ball valve  ON. When the system is pressurized, 
check for leaks.  If a leak is found, tighten the connection.   

5.

 

Wait 5 minutes, the water should start dripping out of the RO faucet, and then wait 10 more minutes to allow 
water to flow through the system, and air inside the system can be purged. 

6.

 

Turn Tank Valve to ON position, lever is parallel to the tubing.   

7.

 

Turn the RO faucet lever to OFF.  Now the purified water will start filling the storage tank.   

8.

 

Wait 2 hours for the storage tank to be filled up.   

9.

 

DO NOT DRINK THE FIRST BATCH OF WATER PRODUCED BY THE SYSTEM.   

10.

 

After storage tank is full, turn the RO faucet lever to continuous flow position, (Lever points up) to discharge the 
first batch of water.  It takes about 5 minutes to completely discharge the tank. When the tank is discharged, you 
will notice just a steady trickle of water coming out.  

11.

 

After discharging the tank or about 5 minutes, turn the RO faucet to OFF position.  Now the RO system is 
refilling the tank. 

12.

 

After the tank is filled up again, you can start enjoy the purified water.  Job Well Done! 

 
NOTE
:  Check for leaks daily for the first week after installation.
