• Brine Discharge Thru-Hull Fitting minimum ½” size with a ½” MNPT connection for mating to the
supplied 1/2” FNPT fitting. The Brine Discharge Thru-Hull Fitting should be installed above water
level. No valves should be installed in this line. Damage to and failure of the system due to a closed
valve will not be covered by the Sea Recovery Warranty.
• Connection of the Potable Water Storage Tank Tube Connector to the boat’s Potable Water Storage
Tank requires a 1/4” FNPT connection for mating to the supplied 1/4” MNPT fitting. In order to avoid
problems such as reverse flow (osmosis) from the tank to the system and chlorination attack of the
RO Membrane Element, the fitting must terminate above the maximum water level. Tying into the
tank fill line is a good choice. No valves should be installed in this line. Damage to and failure of the
system due to a closed valve will not be covered by the Horizon Reverse Osmosis Warranty.
• Connection of the Sea Recovery Freshwater Flush subassembly to the boat’s unpressurized potable
water line requires a 1/2” FNPT connection for mating to the 1/2” MNPT fitting supplied with the
Freshwater Flush subassembly.
• Circuit Breaker with appropriate amperage rating.
• Properly-Sized Power Cables.
• An electrical power source capable of delivering the required constant voltage and cycles during
start-up and operation of the system.
Plumbing Connections
1. Tube-Fitting Connections and Assembly:
a) Cut tube end square and clean.
b) Loosen nut on fitting three turns.
c) Wet the end of the tube and insert tube into fitting until it bottoms. Loosen nut completely and
remove tube with attached parts from body. Check to ensure that the O-ring is seated onto the
tube under the spacer (and not pinched into the body). Insert tube with attached parts into the
body and tighten nut finger-tight.
2. Refer to the illustration below. Always allow slack in all tube and hose lines. Never cause the tube
or hose to immediately bend from the fitting. Allow the line to enter or leave from the fitting in a
straight manner for several inches to ensure proper connection, to relieve stress to the fitting and
tube or hose, and to allow ease of detachment and reattachment during maintenance or repair. If
water lines are pulled tight causing them to bend at the fitting, they will leak, allow air to enter, fail
prematurely and/or break the fitting that they are attached to.
