NOTE:
When the system is first turned on, water
may intermittently “spurt” from the air
gap opening at side of air gap faucet. This
is perfectly normal, and is caused by air
trapped in the system. This will usually
disappear within a short time.
J. Flush System of Preservative &
Check Operation.
1) Lift faucet handle and allow tank to drain com-
plete ly of sanitizing solution. Do Not Use This
Water. When tank is empty, the faucet will steadi-
ly drip. This is the rate water is processed by the
RO system.
2) With faucet handle in “up” position, measure the
rate of the steady drip from spout. Use a grad-
u at ed cylinder (in milliliters) and watch with a
second hand to calculate approximate production
in gallons per day (mil li li ters per minute X 0.38 =
gpd). Proceed to check reject flow rate by dis con-
nect ing tubing at drain con nec tion and measure as
per above. The ratio should be a minimum of 2.5
(reject) to 1 (product).
3) Close faucet and re-inspect system for leaks.
In struct customer (or use special faucet tag
supplied) to wait at least 4 hours and drain tank
again. The water should be discarded as it may
contain some pre ser va tive/dis in fec tant solution.
4) System should be ready to use as soon as the tank
refills. If any objectionable taste is noticed after
second tank draining, wait and drain tank the fol-
lowing day. Only at this time should an ice maker
be turned on if one is con nect ed to the system.
NOTE:
If optional percent rejection is used and
indicates service is required, several
tankfulls of water may have to be used
to completely flush excess TDS from the
new Carbon Post Filter before the green
light will show.
K. Clean Up & Paperwork
1) Clean up the work thoroughly.
2) Affix any special decals or stickers. Be sure to
record the house pressure and TDS for ser vice files.
3) Familiarize family members with the general op er-
a tion of their new RO drinking water appliance. In
particular, note the following on standard faucet:
• The faucet handle positions, down for
momentary flow, and up for continuous flow.
Also note the moveable spout.
• The location of the feed valve and tank shut off
valve as well as the procedure for turning them
off.
• Review the many uses of the water (cooking,
soups, juices, ice cubes, baby formula, pets,
plants, etc.)
• Review the recommended maintenance sched
ule as determined by local water conditions.
Section V: Appendix for
Base ment Installations
The following variations are generally required for
base ment installations:
A. Installing The Drain Connection
For basement installations, the drain saddle is generally
not used. Instead, the RO reject line is routed so that
it drains into a laundry sink, floor drain, or standpipe
through an approved air gap. See Figure 6 on Page 15.
B. Mounting The Faucet
Air Gap Faucet
Follow the installation instructions given ear li er in this
manual. Do not hook up any air gap tubing to the fau-
cet since an alternate air gap will be used elsewhere in
the drain line.
Non Air Gap Faucet
1) Familiarize yourself with all components shown in
the diagram of the non-air gap faucet.
2) Assemble only the chrome base plate and rubber
sealing washer onto the threaded nipple. (Plumb-
er’s putty may be used in place of sealing washer
for neater ap pear ance)
3) Feed threaded nipple through sink/counter mount-
ing hole (9/16" hole is adequate).
