Installation Instructions Pre-amble.

This Aquasafe Reverse Osmosis System has been specifically 
designed as a DIY (Do It Yourself) unit for easy installation and 
maintenace purposes. You will insure a successful installation as 
well as reliable operation by carefully reading this manual and 
following its operational guidelines.
 
Your system requires a minimum of 50psi inlet water pressure.  
City and municipality water utilities are mandated to provide a 
minimum of 50psi however sometimes this is not what results.  
If you are on a well system or on city/municipal water supply and 
have less than 50psi we highly recommend a fully automatic 
booster pump which is found on our websites general parts 
and accessories page.  We also highly recommend a booster 
pump if your water is extremely turbid with ppm counts beyond 
600ppm.

The installation instructions that follow are extremely detailed.  
if a leak is experienced during installation, please see the Leak 
Prevention Section
 on page 18.

 

ATTENTION:

 It is extremely important to change the 

filters of your system in order to ensure ultra pure water 
is being produced for your family and your aquatic pets, 
(which is the whole point to your system) and also to 
prevent premature fouling of the TFC Filmtec Reverse 

Osmosis Membrane of your system. After your installation is 
complete, please read over the Filter Change Schedule section 
(page 19)  and remember to mark on your calendar when your 
systems filter changes need to be conducted.  Filter changes on 
Aquasafe’s Reverse Osmosis Systems are both inexpensive and 
very easily accomplished.
