Step 7 – Start-Up
1. Sanitize the storage tank (see page 20 for sanitization procedure).
2. Check system to verify all components are correctly installed
3. Open inlet valve and tank valve.
4. Check system thoroughly for leaks. If any are found, shut off both inlet and tank valves and correct the issue.
5. Allow system to run & fill tank for 1-2 hours. You will hear the water running to drain while the unit is running. Once the
water stops running to drain the tank is full.
6. Open faucet to flush carbon fines & sanitization solution. Once the flow begins to slow down (around 20 minutes after
opening) turn off the faucet.
7. Allow the tank to fill completely again.
8. Once full, open the faucet and allow the water to run for 24 hours to break-in the RO membrane and completely flush
the system. This will allow your system to run at optimal efficiency.
9. Close faucet and allow tank to fill.
10. System is ready to use
NOTE:
It is normal if the air gap faucet makes gurgling noises and drips small amounts of water during start-up
procedure. This should subside once start-up procedure is complete.
WARNING! Do not drink water produced by the system until the start-up procedure has been
followed completely!
