Use care not to mark chrome ﬁnish.

10. Make Initial Faucet Tubing Connections (see Figure 1)

appropriatedrainconnection(e.g.laundrysink,oordrain,standpipe)tointendedlocationofltration

assembly. An air gap must be installed between outlet and drain connection.

 • TheUniformPlumbingCodedictatesthattheremustbeanairgapbetweentheROrejectlineandthewaste

drain. The faucet air gap module connections can be eliminated only if an air gap is provided elsewhere in the

drainline(i.e.basementinstallations).

IMPORTANT NOTES

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:

 • Ensure all tubing and ﬁttings are secure and free of leaks.

 • InstallationandUseMUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.

 • Do notinstallifwaterpressureexceeds125psi(862kPa).Ifyourwaterpressureexceeds125psi,you

mustinstallapressurelimitingvalve.Contactaplumbingprofessionalifyouareuncertainhowtocheck

your water pressure.

 • Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near ﬁlter or plastic ﬁttings.

 • Mountlterinsuchapositionastopreventitfrombeingstruckbyotheritemsusedintheareaofinstallation

(wastebaskets,etc).

 • Shutoffinletwatersupplyanddepressurizesystemasshowninmanualwhenchangingcartridgesorservicing.

CAUTION

11. Install the Puriﬁcation Assembly and Storage Tank

Undercounter Installation:

The RO assembly is usually mounted to the right or left sink cabinet sidewall, taking into consideration the

space available and the tank location. Generally, the tank is placed in the rear of the sink cabinet while the

puriﬁcation assembly is positioned toward the front for better accessibility.

TomounttheROassembly,elevateitatleast2”offthecabinetoor(withcartridgesinstalled)and,while

keepinglevel,markthelocationofthemountingholesonthecabinetsidewall.Makesmallpilotholeswith

an awl or drill and screw in the two mounting screws, leaving just enough protruding to allow bracket mount-

ing slots to slide over them.

NOTE:Ifthecabinetsidewallsarenotofsolidconstruction,theROassemblycanbesetonthecabinet

oorandheldagainstthesidewallwiththemountingscrews.However,theROassemblywillthenneedto

be lifted from the mounting screws in order to remove ﬁlter cartridges.

The tank can be oriented either vertically or horizontally. It is generally placed to the rear of the cabinet but

canbesetinthefromcenter(betweenthesinkbasins)foreaseofaccessifspacepermits.

Basement Installation:

TheROassemblyisgenerallymountedtothebasementwall(usingwallanchors)ortowoodceilingsup-

ports. To mount the RO assembly, keep bracket level and mark the location of the mounting holes. Install

wallanchorsand/ormountingscrewsasrequired.Leavescrewheadsprotrudingtoallowbracketmounting

slots to slide over them.

The tank may be oriented either vertically or horizontally and can be placed on a shelf, on the ﬂoor, or sus-

pended from the ceiling supports using sturdy brackets.

An effort should be made to minimize the distance between the tank and RO assembly to help assure an

adequate ﬂow rate to the faucet.

12. Make Final Tubing Connections (see Figure 1)

With all of the components in place, the ﬁnal tubing connections can be made. When routing tubing be-

tween components, several guidelines should be observed.

Tubing runs should generally follow the contour of the cabinets rather than interfere with the cabinet stor-

agearea.Striveforneatnessandanorderlytubing“ow”usingfasteners(e.g.insulatedstaples)tosecure

thetubing.Arrangethetubingsotherearenosharpbendsandleavesome“play”inthetubingforeaseof

servicing, then cut tubing to desired length.

Try to keep the tubing form the RO assembly to the tank and faucet as short as practical for good ﬂow.

Undersink Installation:

A)Connectorange1/4”tubingfromfeedwatervalveto“Feed”connectiononROassembly.

B)Connectoneendofblue3/8”tubingtofaucetadapterandtheotherendtothe“faucet”connectionon

the RO assembly.

C)Connectyellow3/8”tubingfromstoragetanktotheteeontheROassembly.

D)Routespecialred“SFC”tubefromROassemblymodule(factorymadeconnection)towardfaucet.Do

notcutthisspecialSFCtube.Itslengthisimportanttomaintainproperefciencyandperformance.

E)RemovewhiteplugfromcouplingttingonendofredSFCtube.ConnectSFCtubetooneendof1/4”

x1/4”couplingtting.

F) Connectthegreen1/4”tubingfromfaucetairgapto1/4”couplingttingontheendofSFCtube

(SeeFigure5).

To reduce the risk associated with a hazardous voltage due to an installer drilling through existing electric

wiring or water pipes in the area of installation:

 •Do not install near electric wiring or piping which may be in the path of a drilling tool when selecting the position

to mount the ﬁlter bracket.
