Annual Sanitization
Using a clean eye dropper insert ½ teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide or
common household bleach into the white tube. This will flow into the
tank once water is turned back on to unit. Reattach white tube to the
ball valve. Follow start up procedure and drain two full tanks of water.
Replace Post Carbon Filter
Turn off the water supply to your RO system at the adapt-a-valve and
open the RO faucet to drain the storage tank.
Sanitization procedure must be performed before
a filter change.
Note:
Step 1
Step 3
Step 2
Disconnect the white tube from the ball valve on the storage tank
(see
page 6 for quick connect fitting use instructions).
Once all water in the tank is purged, check air pressure using an air pressure gauge, it should
read between 5 - 7 PSI. (Digital air pressure gauge is recommended)
Check Air Pressure in the Tank
Important:
Step 3
Check air pressure only when tank is empty of water!
Step 1
Turn off the incoming water supply to the RO.
Open the RO Faucet and allow water to drain from the tank until
it is completely empty.
Step 2
Check air pressure in the storage tank when you notice a decrease in available water from
the RO system. Air can be added with a bicycle pump using the schrader valve that is located
on the lower side of the tank behind the blue plastic cap.
Tip:
When water from the RO faucet slows to a trickle, with the faucet still in the open
position, you may add air to the tank to purge any left over water, this will ensure that
the tank is completely empty.
Step 4
Follow startup procedure on page 12.
