Installation
All State/Provincial and local government codes regarding installation of these devices must be
observed.
Verify Water Supply is Potable
The water supply must meet provincial/state and/or national standards for potable drinking water. Water
samples should be sent to a certified laboratory for analysis.
Placement of Components
Placement of the various components of the system will vary from installation to installation. The main
objective is to place the components so that they are accessible for servicing and ease of installation.
Spigot
Proper faucet placement should ensure a no-splash waterfall pattern into the sink. The spigot handle
should be positioned to either the left or right as one faces the sink.
Storage Tank
The storage tank should be placed so that it can be easily removed from under the sink. Avoid placing
the storage tank in out-of-the-way cabinets or dead spaces . There are two reasons for this: 1) the
difficulty of installation increases significantly and 2) when the storage tank is located further away from
the faucet, the flow rate diminishes.
Module Assembly
The module assembly should be hung on a sink cabinet side-wall with the two wood screws provided.
Quick Connect Fittings
All connections are quick connect fittings except for the compression fitting at the inlet sadle valve, drain
saddle valve and storage tank shutoff valve.
To Prepare Tubing
•
Cut the tube squarely and remove any burrs.
•
Mark from the end of the tube the length of insertion. (1/4" O.D. - 11/16", 3/8" O.D. - 3/4")
To Insert Tubing into Fitting
•
Insert tube straight into fitting until it bottoms out on interior shoulder and insertion mark is no longer
visible.
To Release Tubing
•
Push collet toward body and pull on tubing to release tube. To re-use fitting, begin assembly over
again.
