Installation
Placement of Your RO Appliance
1) Place your RO appliance on the kitchen counter within two feet (61 cm) of the sink (or on any solid,
flat surface within the length of the connecting hose).
Important:
The top of the RO appliance must be at least 5” (13 cm) higher than the sink faucet outlet.
This will assure proper operation of the automatic overflow device.
Replace Existing Aerator
2) Your faucet should already have an aerator at the outlet. To attach the RO appliance, you’ll have to
remove the existing aerator and replace it with the special aerator supplied.
a) Remove old aerator. Use a pair of pliers (slip joint pliers are best) with tape wrapped around the
jaws to prevent marring.
b) Determine whether your faucet has male or female threads. Use correct washers for your faucet
as shown below and install new aerator.
c) Turn cold water on full force and check for leaks between faucet and aerator.
d) If a leak occurs, remove aerator and confirm that the washer is centered and flat against aerator.
Then reinstall aerator. Be sure to tighten sufficiently.
Note:
If you do not have a faucet that will use the aerator supplied, please contact your supplier.
