Purging the system
□
Open the water supply valve to the reverse
osmosis system.
□
Purge air from the house plumbing by opening
several house faucets. Close faucets when water
runs smooth, with no spurting.
□
Pressure will start to build in the reverse osmosis
system. In about 2 hours check all fittings and
connections. Check for water leaks. Fix leaks if
any are found. If problems exist, refer to the
Troubleshooting section of call customer service.
NOTE:
When the system is first pressurized, water may
''spurt'' from the faucet air gap hole until air is expelled
from the RO system. Please review the following
operating features before using your Reverse Osmosis
system.
You will not have filtered water immediately. It may take
several hours to fill the storage tank and create maximum
flow from the reverse osmosis faucet.
Water pressure from the reverse osmosis faucet will be
less than your standard faucet.
Water will run to the drain while the reverse osmosis
system is producing water, even if you are not drawing
water from the reverse osmosis faucet.
You may hear a small quantity of water going to the drain
at times when water is not being used. This is normal.
Water going to the drain will automatically shut off when
the storage tank is full.
□
Open the reverse osmosis faucet (D) and let water
flow through the system for a 24 hour period. Water
flow will be a slow trickle at this time.
□
Close the reverse osmosis faucet (D) after the 24
hour purging period is complete.
When the purging is finished, your reverse osmosis
system is ready for use.
NOTE:
As with all other water system applications,
leaks may occur. Because the system pressure builds
slowly, leaks may not be immediately apparent.
Recheck for leaks 24 hours after purging the system is
complete.
