RO PURIFICATION SYSTEM START-UP
1.
Rotate RO faucet handle upward to lock into open position.
2.
Turn ON feed water supply valve and tank valve. This will flush carbon postfilter through faucet and drain
remainder of sanitizing solution from tank. Once water begins to steadily drip from RO faucet, allow unit
to run through faucet for 24 hours to flush membrane, then close faucet handle.
Note: If RO system does NOT include BIOScript
®
filter(s), advance to Step 9.
3.
Turn OFF Shut-off Ball Valve located prior to dispenser inlet.
4.
Remove Shut-off Ball Valve from end of dispenser inlet tube. Insert end of dispenser inlet tube into 90 degree
push-in elbow fitting on base of BIOScript
®
filter (Page 12, Figure 7).
5.
Cut separate 5” length of white 1/4” dispenser tubing and insert into push-in fitting on top of BIOScript
®
filter(Page 12, Figure 7).
6.
Attach Shut-off Ball Valve to open end of 5” tubing, then connect with white 1/4” dispenser feed tubing
originating from RO System (Page 12, Figure 7).
Note:
BIOScript
®
filter should be located between Shut-off Ball Valve and dispenser
as shown on page 12, Figure 7.

. Install BIOScript
®
filter mounting bracket using self-drilling screw provided. Centrally mount bracket behind
filter. Use Ez Anchor provided if anchoring mounting bracket into drywall.
8
.
Flush BIOScript
®
Filter(s) - DO NOT USE FIRST BATCH OF PURIFIED WATER:
Directly flush 1 gallon of
PURIFIED water through each BIOScript
®
filter prior to initial use
(fill Burrette full of purified water 12 times)
.
9.
If system
does not
have BIOScript
®
filter(s), flush 150cc of water through dispenser to clear supply line.
10.
Flush remaining water in tank through RO faucet.
11
. Allow RO System 2 hours to partially refill before beginning initial use of new purified water supply. If water
remains cloudy or turbid after 24 hours, repeat flushing procedure as outlined above.
NOTE:
When RO appliance is first turned on, water may intermittently “spurt” from Air Gap opening in back of
Air Gap Faucet. This is caused by air trapped in RO system and will disappear within a short time
after system usage begins.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
For RO system to continually to operate at peak performance levels, the following routine maintenance must
be performed:
