System must be installed indoors 

and easily accessed for service and 

maintenance.
Water supply is cold water only, at a 

minimum of 45 psi, maximum of 80 psi.
Distribution plumbing from the system 

to equipment location(s) should be 

minimum ¾” nominal. Hose, PEX or 

other non-metal pipe is recommended.
Cut tubing and hoses to an appropriate 

length and avoid loops or kinks in 

tubing. Do not cut tubing with wire 

crimpers or dikes. Route and secure 

lines in an orderly manner.
Installation must conform to all local 

codes and regulations.

Equipment layout:

Take time to visualize the final 

placement of equipment. Hose, tubing 

and electrical connections will be 

made between the Processor, Storage 

Tank, RP Pump, Buffer Tank and the 

distribution plumbing.
Consider the placement of components 

in relation to the utilities (described 

below), and allow easy access for 

operation and service. For example, 

make certain that an operator can see 

and access the Emergency Bypass 

Valve on the left side of the Processor; 

and that the power cords from the 

Processor and RP Pump can be routed 

to the power outlet.

Utility requirements:

Water Supply – A minimum ½” 

dedicated water supply line* with ½” 

NFPT full-flow ball valve is required 

within 6 feet of the processor. When 

possible, locate the supply valve to 

the left of the processor and install a 

pressure gauge. 
Drain –  A drain with a capacity of 4 

gallons per minute flow is required 

within 4 feet of installation location. 
Power – Two 120 VAC electrical outlets 

are required; one for the Processor 

and one for the RP Pump.
*NOTE: A dedicated supply line is a

water line run directly from a main

water source. It does not branch out

and is uninterrupted along its path.
