Reverse Osmosis Module Mounting

Step A – 

 Determine best location for the 

RO module to be mounted to 

allow for future system main-

tenance . The parts bag has 2 

self-tapping screws . Using an 

electric drill with a Phillips bit, 

screw them into the cabinet 

wall 6" apart and 16" from the 

bottom of the cabinet .

Note:  Do not cut any RO system tubes at this time.

STEP 5

Green Tube Connection

Step A –  

Locate green tube attached to the 

RO Module . Insert the open end of 

the green

" tube into the open

Quick-Connect fitting on the Adapt-

A-Valve™ making sure the tube is 

pushed in all the way to the tube 

stop .

Step B –

  Connect the green tube from the RO 

module to the Adapt-A-Valve™ that 

is connected to the angle stop valve . 

Leave enough tube so it is not kinked and cut the tube to 

the desired length .

Step A –

  Insert the red

" tube from 

the faucet into the port on the 

module marked DRAIN . Make 

sure the tube is pushed in all 

the way to the tube stop .

Connect the Red Tube from  

Faucet to RO Module

STEP 7

Drain Saddle Installation -  

Fits standard 1¼" – 1½" drain pipes

Follow all local plumbing codes for your installation.

Caution:  If you have a garbage disposal, do not install the drain 

saddle near it. Installation of the drain saddle must be either 

above the garbage disposal, or if a second sink drain is avail-

able, install it above the cross bar on the second drain. Installa-

tion of the drain saddle near a garbage disposal may cause the 

drain line to plug.
Step A –

  Locate the drain saddle kit in the parts bag .

Gather the pieces of the drain saddle
( 1 ) - Black compression nut 

( 1 ) - Semicircle bracket with opening 

( 2 ) - Screws 

( 1 ) - Foam gasket 

( 2 ) - Nuts for screws 

( 1 ) - Semicircle bracket

Step B –  

The small square black foam gasket with a circle cut out 

of the middle must be applied to the inside of the drain 

saddle . Remove sticky tape backing and stick to the drain 

saddle as shown . 

Step C – 

 The drain saddle must be installed 

at least 1 ½" above the nut of the 

P-Trap elbow or cross bar from the 

garbage disposal to insure proper 

drainage . Using the 1/4" drill bit, 

drill into the drain pipe at best avail-

able location as specified above, 

for drain saddle installation . Take 

extreme caution to only drill through 

one side of the drain pipe .

Step D – 

 Assemble the drain saddle around the drain pipe and align 

drain saddle fitting opening with the hole drilled in the 

previous step - you may use a small screwdriver to feed 

through the drain saddle into the drain pipe to aid with the 

alignment . Using a Phillips screw driver tighten the drain 

saddle bolts evenly and securely on both sides .

Caution: Do not over tighten the screws. It may crack the drain 

saddle.

Drain Saddle Tube Connection 

The black 3/8" drain tube must be as SHORT and STRAIGHT as 

possible to the drain saddle, making a downward slope from faucet 

to drain saddle to allow for proper drainage . This is a gravity fed line 

and if there is any bend or dip in the tube, the rinse water will not 

flow into the drain properly . Water may back up and come out the air 

gap hole in the back of the faucet . 

Step A –

  Measure the 3/8" drain tube from faucet to the drain saddle 

on the drain pipe and make a straight cut to the correct 

length .

Step B –  

Slip drain tube through black 

compression nut . Insert drain 

tube into the opening in the 

drain saddle and hand tighten 

the black nut, and add 1/4 turn 

with a wrench .
