Installation Instructions 
Residential Reverse Osmosis 
Drinking Water System 

PuROMax  Reverse Osmosis System has been tested to ensure it will operate correctly. The following periodic 
maintenance is recommended so your system will provide years of trouble-free service: 

 
Replacement parts Replacement 

PuROMax SF5-10 Pre-filters (sediment) every 6 mos. 
PuROMax PCTO/2 Pre-filter (activated carbon) every 6 mos. 
PuROMax R/O membrane every 2-3 years 
PuROMax Aicro Post filter (carbon) Every 6 mos. 

 
Components 

The following components make up your PuROMax Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water System: 

PuROMax SF5-10 Pre-filter 

(sediment) removes larger particles such as sand, silt, rust and scale. 

PuROMax PCTO/2 Pre-filter 

(activated carbon) removes chlorine in the feed water to protect the reverse osmosis 

membrane. 

Reverse Osmosis Membrane 

reduces 

dissolved 

minerals, metals and salts. During the process harmful compounds are 

separated by the membrane and the reject water goes to waste (drain). 
An activated carbon 

post-filter 

is provided for a final “polish” and to remove foul tastes, odors and to 

provide great tasting drinking water. 
 

Filter housings 

and 

R/O module 

hold pre-filters and membranes. A 

bracket 

is provided so they may be mounted, 

typically below sink. 

 
Storage tank 

holds filtered water, ready for use. 

 
Automatic shut-off valve 

senses when the storage tank is full and closes the water supply to conserve water. 

The dedicated 

faucet 

is used to dispense RO produced water when needed. 

 

Feed water saddle valve 

is connected to the cold water line to supply water to the R/O system. 

 
Waste water saddle valve 

is connected to the drain to remove reject water from the R/O system. 

 
Tubing 

supplies feed and reject water. 

 
Fittings 

are used for necessary hose connections. 

 
Tools 

The following tools may be necessary, depending on each particular installation: 

3/8” variable speed electric drill; 1/8” &1/2” bits 
1-

1/4” porcelain whole cutter (if hole for second faucet is not provided). 

Center punch and hammer 
1-

1/4” wood bit 

Concrete drill bits 
Phillips head and flat blade screwdrivers 
 Adjustable wrench 
Crescent wrench 
Teflon tape 
Plastic tube cutter 
Air pressure gauge (low pressure) 
Air pump (hand) 

 
 
System location 

Your PuROMax R/O system may be installed under a sink, in a basement or other location, depending on available 
space. Do not install unit where temperatures fall below freezing. Do not install the drain saddle valve near a garbage 
disposal; otherwise, plugging of the waste water line may occur. If discharging into a utility sink or standpipe, an air gap 
must be provided. (Air gaps must be 1” or greater above the floor rim.) 
Note: Plumbing codes may require the use air gaps. Please check with your local municipality. 
Do not connect the R/O system drain line to the dishwasher drain line due to the fact back pressures may cause the air 
gap to overflow.
