 Startup Instructions 

Step A– 

 Turn on the incoming cold water at the angle stop valve . 

Turn the knob on the Adapt-A-Valve™ by turning coun-

terclockwise . Check the system for leaks, and tighten any 

fittings as necessary . (Check frequently over the next 24 

hours to ensure no leaks are present) .

Note:  If you have connected your RO system to a refrigerator / 

ice maker, make sure the ice maker is off (do not allow water to 

flow to the ice maker) until flushing is complete and the tank has 

been allowed to fill completely. Connection from the RO to the 

ice maker system should have an inline valve installed before 

the ice maker so it can easily be closed to prevent water flowing 

to the ice maker during startup and periodic maintenance. Your 

RO tank must be allowed to fill up fully in order for the ice maker 

system to work properly. 
Step B – 

 Open the RO faucet and leave it open until water begins to 

trickle out . (It will come out slowly) .

Step C – 

 After water trickles out of the faucet, close the RO faucet 

allowing the storage tank to fill with water . It may take 4 to 

6 hours to fill the tank completely depending on the pro-

duction capability of the membrane, local water tempera-

ture and water pressure . 

Note:  During the fill period, you may hear water trickling due to 

the Reverse Osmosis Process.
Step D –

  After the Tank has filled, open the RO Faucet to flush the 

tank completely to remove carbon particles from final filter . 

You will know that the tank is empty when the flow rate 

from the RO faucet is down to a trickle . Repeat this step 

two more times . The fourth tank can be used for drinking .  

Note:  Flushing of the tank three times is only necessary during 

the initial startup and after replacing the membrane. 
Important: Your reverse osmosis system contains replaceable 

treatment components that are critical for effective containment 

reduction. Periodic inspection and following proper system 

maintenance is critical for continued performance.

Step A – 

 Remove the caps from the final 

filter .

Step B – 

 Thread  the

connect fittings into each end of 

the Final Filter and tighten .

Step C – 

 Cut the blue tubing between the 

RO faucet and the RO module 

at a desired locations to splice in 

the in-line final filter . 

Step D – 

 With the directional flow arrow 

on the final filter pointing towards 

the faucet, insert the blue tubing 

from the RO faucet into the fitting 

on the final filter . Repeat this step 

to connect the blue tubing from 

the RO module into the inlet side 

of the final filter .
