B. Tools Recommended for Reverse Osmosis
Installation
C. Site Selection for Major System Reverse
Osmosis Components
The following tools will cover most of the
Reverse Osmosis installation sites
encountered:
The Reverse Osmosis System was designed to fit
under a sink, however, because of space limitations
or other reasons, the Reverse Osmosis system's
flexible design allows for other locations. When
determining the location of your Reverse Osmosis
system remember that access to a cold water tap
line, the household drain, and ease of Reverse
Osmosis filter replacement are important
considerations.
All Reverse Osmosis components and tubing
should be located in an area not exposed to
freezing temperatures. If winter temperatures are
sever, the area should be above the minimum
temperature listed in Table B, page 2 for proper
performance. Do not expose Reverse Osmosis
system or tubing to direct sunlight.
1. 3/8" variable speed electric drill.
2. Extension work light with outlet.
3. Safety glasses.
4. 5/8" Drill Bit and 1/8" and ½"metal drill bits
for pilot hole.
6. Center punch and hammer.
7. Wood bits.
8. Concrete drill bits.
9. Assorted wood and metal drill bits including
7/32" metal drill bit.
1. Reverse Osmosis Drinking Faucet
– The
Reverse Osmosis faucet should be placed near
the sink where drinking water is normally
obtained. Convenience of use (filling of water
pitchers and glasses), and an open area
beneath the Reverse Osmosis faucet under the
sink for attaching product and Reverse Osmosis
drain tubing are considerations. A 2" diameter
flat surface is required above and below the
Reverse Osmosis installation site.
10. Phillips head and flat blade screwdrivers.
11. ½", 9/16" and 5/8" open end wrenches.
12. 10" Crescent wrench with jaws taped to
hold faucet.
13. Basin wrench or 10" pipe wrench.
14. Teflon tape.
15. Wide masking tape or duct tape.
16. Plastic tubing cutter.
17. Extra plastic tubing.
2. Reverse Osmosis Holding Tank
– The
Reverse Osmosis Holding Tank may be placed
where it is convenient within 10 feet of the
Reverse Osmosis faucet; under the sink, in an
adjacent cabinet are the best choices or in a
basement within 20 feet of the Reverse Osmosis
faucet. If a longer run of Reverse Osmosis
tubing is required, a transfer delivery pump may
be required extra to boost line pressure.
18. Low range air pressure gauge.
19. Small bottle of liquid chlorine bleach.
20. Paper towels, wisk broom and assorted
clean up materials.
3. Reverse Osmosis Manifold Assembly
– The
Reverse Osmosis manifold can be installed on
either the right or left side of the under-sink area
or a cabinet. The right side is recommended
because all the Reverse Osmosis tubing will be
to the back of the cabinet and out of the way.
Reverse Osmosis Installation in the basement is
also an option; one location is near the
laundry/utility sink where cold potable water and
rain access are handy. The mounting location
should allow adequate clearance and
accessibility for Reverse Osmosis cartridge
changes.
