INSTALL A REMOTE DRAIN POINT
AND AIR GAP (Remote Location)
Route the drain tubing to an existing drain in the
house. A floor drain, laundry tub, standpipe, sump,
etc. are suitable drain points. See Fig. 9. This type of
drain is the preferred over the p-trap drain adapter.
Always be sure to provide a 4 cm air gap between the
end of the hose and the drain point. This will prevent
water from backing up into the system.
NOTE: Check your local plumbing codes.

To install a remote drain point, complete the
following steps:
1. Locate the 1/4" (6.35 mm) red tubing on the
Reverse Osmosis filter assembly. See Fig. 8.
2. Determine if this length is long enough to reach
the drain point. Longer lengths of tubing (see
parts list in back of manual) may be needed.
3. If longer tubing is required, disconnect the
1/4" (6.35 mm) red tubing and replace with an
adequate length of tubing to reach the drain
point. Refer to Step F later in the manual on how
to disconnect and connect tubing.
NOTE: A flow control insert is located inside the
elbow fitting that the drain tube connects to.
Refer to Fig 25. Leave this fitting in place.
4. Route the tubing to the drain point and secure at
the end with a bracket (not included). See Fig. 9.
Provide a 4 cm air gap between the end of the
tube and the drain. See Fig. 9.
