CONNECT WATER SUPPLY, STORAGE TANK AND DRAIN TUBING
1. Connect faucet drain tubing (if using p-trap
drain):
Run the 3/8" black tubing from the 3/8" faucet
barb, to the drain fitting installed on page 5. Keep this
tubing run as straight as possible, without loops, dips or
low-spots. Cut the tubing as needed and fasten to the
drain fitting, securing as required (pages 5 and 16).
Or, connect RO drain tubing (if using floor drain or
other approved drain point):
Route the 1/4" red tubing
from the RO to the floor drain, sump, etc. Be sure to pro-
vide an air gap when securing in place.
2. Install Flow Control Insert:
Before connecting the
1/4” red tubing to the RO system manifold’s drain port,
take the flow control insert from the parts bag and insert
it into the end of the tube, as shown below.
3. Connect water supply tubing:
Connect a length of
1/4 " green tubing to the RO inlet. Connect the other end
if this tubing to the feed water supply fitting, installed on
page 5. Connect the tubing as applies (Figures 1 and 5)
and tighten the nut securely.
