INSTALLATION (continued)
Rinse Valve Connection
1. Obtain a length of 3/4” garden hose long enough to
reach from the Rinse Valve to the drain.
2. Install a gasket in the end of the hose (non-drain end).
3. Connect the hose to the Rinse Valve fitting. Use a back-
up wrench on the fitting if required (Figure 5).
4. Direct the other end of the hose to the drain. Secure as
necessary.
NOTE: The drain MUST accommodate a flow of up to
15 gpm.
System Inlet Connection
The System Inlet has a 3/4” NPT male thread at the Inlet
Valve (Figure 6). Do NOT overtighten fittings as this could
cause the plastic ball valve to crack.
Use plastic fittings and a pipe thread sealant approved for use
on PVC fittings when making connections.
CAUTION
Do NOT use the Rinse Valve for consumable water.
Filtered Water Permeate Outlet Connection
The System Outlet has a 3/4” NPT male thread at the Outlet
Valve (Figure 6). Do NOT overtighten fittings as this could
cause the plastic ball valve to crack.
Use plastic fittings and a pipe thread sealant approved for use
on PVC fittings when making connections.

Figure 6a. Installing a T-Fitting for Sanitizing
Inlet Water Plumbing
The "T" Fitting with plug (supplied) should be installed at the
System Inlet. This fitting will be used for sanitizing the system
and downstream plumbing (Figure 6a).
Before connecting the fitting to the System Inlet, the plumb-
ing to the system must be flushed clear of all debris. Hold a
bucket at the inlet water line and slowly open the Inlet Water
Valve. Allow the pipe to flush until all debris is removed.
