1.   Check all tubing connec

ti

 ons to ensure they are 

fi

 rmly seated and secure.

2.   Open the dispensing faucet at the sink.  Close the tank shut-o

  valve.

3.   Open the feed water valve to the system.  Observe all tubing and connec

ti

 ons for several minutes to detect any leaks.  

In approximately 5 minutes, (assuming normal feed water pressure) the dispensing faucet should begin dripping.  

4.   Place a pan or other tempo rary water basin near the drain 'P' trap.  Loosen the connector nut holding the 3/8" tube 
in the drain saddle connec tor.  Pull the tube out of the connector and use the pan to catch any water that may spill.  Brine 
water should be 

fl

 owing from the tube.  Reconnect the tube to the drain saddle and hand-

ti

 ght en the connector nut.  

5.  Allow the faucet the run for up to 15 minutes, then close the faucet.

6.  Check for leaks at all connec

ti

 ons.

7.  Open the tank shut-o

  valve.

Ini

ti

 al Flushing Procedure

1.   Before the system can be used for drinking water produc

ti

 on it must be adequately 

fl

 ushed.  Each reservoir tank is 

dosed with a small amount of powdered sani

ti

 zer before shipment, typically a chlorina

ti

 ng agent, in order to ensure tank 

internal cleanliness.  Also, the carbon 

fi

 lter cartridge will release a small amount of carbon 

fi

 nes during the 

fi

 rst tankful of 

fl

 ow.  This 

fl

 ushing procedure will allow any sani

ti

 zer or carbon 

fi

 nes to pass from the system. 

2. Ini

ti

 al tank 

fi

 lling will take approximately one hour (based on average feed pressure).  When the tank is full, the water 

pressure will have risen to the point where the automa

ti

 c shut-o

  valve inside the system will stop the feed 

fl

 ow through 

the system.  Actua

ti

 on of the automa

ti

 c shut-o

  valve can be determined by either checking for a lack of brine 

fl

 ow to the 

drain saddle, or by listening very closely near the dispensing faucet for absence of water 

fl

 ow sound though the air gap.  

When the tank has 

fi

 lled for the 

fi

 rst 

ti

 me, it should be le

ft

  undisturbed for at least 8 hours to ensure proper sani

ti

 za

ti

 on. 

3. A

ft

 er 8 hours has elapsed, open the dispensing faucet fully and allow the product water to run out to drain at maximum 

fl

 ow.  The ini

ti

 al discharge will be dark with the bulk of the carbon par

ti

 cle wash out.  There may also be the scent of chlo-

rinated water from the sani

ti

 zing agent.  When the 

fl

 ow has diminished to a fast drip or small stream, close the dispensing 

faucet. 

4. Fill 

and 

fl

 ush the tank at least three 

ti

 mes prior to use.  If necessary, repeat un

ti

 l the chlorina

ti

 on scent has disappeared.  

It is important that the 

fl

 ush be done at maximum 

fl

 ow (e.g. the tank must be full) to assist in rapid wash out.  A

ft

 er this 

fl

 ushing procedure the system is ready for normal use.
