Important Safety 

 

Information

In addition to the warnings and cautions in 

this manual, use the following guidelines to 

safely operate the system:

 

y

Read all instructions before 

using equipment.

 

y

Install or locate the equipment 

only for its intended use as 

described in this manual. 

 

y

Do NOT use corrosive 

chemicals in this equipment.

 

y

Do NOT operate this equipment 

if it has a damaged cord or plug; 

if it is not working properly, or if it 

has been damaged or dropped.

 

y

This equipment should be serviced 

by qualified personnel only. Contact 

Antunes Technical Service for repair.

 

y

Do NOT immerse cord 

or plug in water.

 

y

Keep cord away from 

heated surfaces.

 

y

This equipment should be 

supplied with only cold water.

 

y

The use of saddle valves 

are not permitted. Please 

consult your local plumber.

The following warnings and cautions 

appear throughout this manual and should 

be carefully observed.

 

y

This equipment is to be installed to 

comply with the local plumbing code 

and any other applicable code.

 

y

Water pressure must not 

exceed 100 psig (690 kPa). To 

reduce water pressure, install 

a water pressure regulator and 

set to suit the application. 

 

y

When installed on metallic 

plumbing, a properly sized 

electrical bonding jumper must 

be installed across the inlet and 

outlet pipes serving this unit.

Protect from becoming dry

If the membrane dries out, irreversible 

damage to the RO membrane may result. 

Protect the filter from becoming dry by 

keeping it wet and sealed at all times.

Protect from freezing

If the RO membrane freezes during 

operation or storage, irreversible damage 

to the membrane and brittle cracking of the 

cartridge or housing may result.

Protect from direct sunlight or other UV 

sources

Avoid long-term exposure to direct sunlight 

or other UV  sources. The RO should be 

stored in a dark location.

Protect from high temperatures or 

abrupt variation in temperature

The maximum operating temperature is 

100°F (38°C). Avoid abrupt variations in 

temperature. Any temperature variation 

should be made slowly.

Protect from rough handling or 

dropping

Mechanical damage, external breakage, 

and/or internal breakage of the filter can 

result if the system is dropped or bumped. 

Handle with care at all times during 

transportation and installation.

Protect from organic solvents and 

concentrated acids

Prevent any and all contact of the 

membrane with strong solvents, solvents 

containing chlorine, or concentrated 

acids. Do NOT use strong solvents or 

concentrated acids on any plastic parts 

of the filter system. Examples of some 

solvents to avoid: acetone, methyl 

acetate (nail polish remover); hexane 

(spot removers); turpentine, toluene 

(paint thinners); dry cleaning solutions, 

insecticides.

Protect from abrasive material

The membranes must be protected from 

abrasive materials like shavings left in a 

pipe. Abrasive materials in contact with 

the membrane can cause irreversible 

damage to the membrane. All pipes must 

be flushed clean before installing the 

filter. All plastic parts of the filter system 

must be protected from sharp objects like 

knives, sand paper, or other tools. Cutting 

or nicking a plastic part can weaken it 

and cause a leak. Do NOT use abrasive 

cleansers on any plastic parts.

Protect from water hammer

The system must be protected from shock, 

pressure surges, or pulsation that may 

occur inside water pipes. Water hammer 

occurs in pipes when a valve or faucet 

shuts quickly. Install a water hammer 

arrestor (pressure vessel containing 

compressed air separated from the water 

by a diaphragm) to reduce pressure shock.
