2. Keep in mind that you may install a tube tee on the line to the faucet to connect icemakers
or other faucets to the system. If you locate your system farther than 20 feet from the
faucet, you will need to add a pressure booster pump to your system. See your dealer for
parts and details.
Step 2. Getting Ready
1. Clear working area. Unpack all components and check for visual damage. Ensure all
listed components are included. Review contents at Figure 1.
2. Inspect the cold water supply line and the condition of the pipe. The SV-8 saddle included
is intended for standard ½” or ¾” copper plumbing pipe. If you have a polybutylene,
polypropylene, iron or a PEX supply line, you will need to consult your plumber or plumbing
supply store to purchase an appropriate cold water connection. The Waterite part number
for a ½” PEX supply valve is 0651188.
3. You will need the following tools: An electric drill, a 5/8” drill bit, a ¼” drill bit,
a pencil, a
small adjustable (crescent) wrench, a sharp knife (X-Acto type knife is best), adjustable
pliers, a Phillips-head screwdriver, a rat-tail file, a center punch.
Always wear eye
protection when using an electric drill.
4. If you have purchased the booster pump model (Waterite model number ROC101E) then
you must have a 120V household electrical plug available where the RO cabinet will be
installed. Have a qualified electrician make this installation for you if one is not available.
Step 3. Install the Cold Water Supply Pipe Saddle
1. Turn the water supply valve to your home OFF.
2. Place the saddle on the COLD water supply line in a place that will not interfere with normal
access to the installation area but within easy reach of the RO unit. Thread the brass bolt
screw through the threaded hole opposite the valve and insert the reversible pipe back
plate, matching the contour with your supply pipe size. See Figure 2a. Snug firmly but DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Turn the ‘T’ valve handle on the saddle valve clockwise until the
supply pipe is pierced and the valve is fully closed. Your pipe saddle valve will already
have the poly tube factory pre-attached. Keep the saddle valve closed for now.

For installations with ½” PEX, PVC or
copper plumbing pipe, consider the use
of a push-on tee valve. It may be
ordered from your dealer using Waterite
part # ROTV1214.
