LOCATION OF SYSTEM

The reverse osmosis system can be installed under or near a sink or 

any other water supply. The RO assembly can be placed on the sink 

cabinet floor in any other location that does not apply pressure on 

the disconnect elbows or tubing. A nearby suitable drain point is also 

required for the drain (waste) water.

NOTE: Keep the lengths of tubing short.  Longer lengths of tubing will 

decrease inlet pressure and ultimately system performance.  

An optional booster pump can be used on the supply line to 

increase inlet pressure.

NOTE: All plumbing should be done in accordance with state and 

local plumbing codes. 

 

Some codes may require installation by a licensed plumber. 

Check with the local plumbing authority prior to installation.

WARNING:

 All components and tubing should be located in an 

area which is not exposed to freezing temperatures. 

Do not expose unit or tubing to direct sunlight.

Water Supply:

  To provide supply water to the RO system inlet, a 

garden hose connection fitting is included with the system. Other 

types of feed supply fittings are available to allow hookup to a variety 

of feed sources. The feed water valve should be located as close to 

the manifold assembly as possible. 

USE A POTABLE COLD WATER 

SUPPLY ONLY.

 Softened water is preferred as it will extend the life 

of the RO membrane elements. Other forms of pre-filtration may be 

necessary depending on quality of incoming water.

THE BASIC REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM cont.

Drain Point:

  A suitable drain point is needed for reject (waste) water 

from the RO system. A floor drain, laundry tub, standpipe, sump, etc. 

are all acceptable. If discharging into the utility sink or standpipe, 

an air gap of greater than 1/2-inches above the flood rim must be 

provided. 
An optional 3/8” quick connect sink p-trap drain adapter is available 

to install as an optional drain point where codes permit.
Do not connect the system drain line to the dishwasher drain or near 

the garbage disposal. Back pressure from these units may cause the 

air gap to overflow. 

RO Manifold Assembly:

  The RO system can be installed in either a 

horizontal or vertical orientation. Installation in the basement is also 

an option. One possible location is near the laundry/ utility sink where 

cold potable water and drain access are close. The location chosen 

should allow adequate clearance and accessibility for membrane 

element changes.
