Start Up
At time of start up and each time the filters are changed the system should be sanitized (also see Operation and
Maintenance Sec. V, B.1–4, page12).
Sanitizing the system. Use a drip pan to aid clean–up.
1.
NOTE: The system should be sanitized BEFORE installing the Sediment/Carbon Prefilter, the Activated Carbon Post Filter
or the RO Membrane.
•
Use a good quality unscented 5¼% liquid chlorine household bleach.
•
Open the Dispensing Faucet by lifting the black handle and open the Holding Tank Shut–Off Valve (the handle
should be parallel with the valve body).
•
Remove the plug on the underside of the manifold labelled "SEDIMENT/CARBON". Pour one capful of bleach (this
is approximately 2 tsp. or 10 ml) into one of the white Housings. Insert a Housing O–ring into the Housing groove,
(press firmly in place). Engage and firmly tighten the Housing hand tight only.
•
Remove the plugs labelled "MEMBRANE" and "ACTIVATED CARBON" from the underside of the manifold. To
each of the remaining white Housings, add one capful of bleach. Insert a Housing O–ring, engage and firmly tighten
the Housings hand tight only.
•
Slowly open the Feed Water Saddle Valve (turning counter clockwise).
•
As soon as the water begins to come out of the Dispensing Faucet, close the Faucet.
•
Let stand for 15 minutes.
NOTE: During this time, check the system carefully for leaks.
•
At the end of 15 minutes, CLOSE the Feed Water Saddle Valve and open the Dispensing Faucet.
•
Allow the Holding Tank to completely drain, then remove the Sediment/Carbon Filter Housing (the farthest of the
three from the In–Out ports), empty, and install the Sediment/Carbon Prefi lter. Firmly tighten the Housing hand tight
only.
•
Remove the Activated Carbon Filter Housing (the closest of the three to the In–Out ports), empty, and install the
Activated Carbon Post Filter. Firmly tighten the Housing hand tight only.
2. Installing the RO Membrane:
•
Remove the RO Membrane Housing, (the middle one), and empty.
•
Insert the Membrane up into the manifold. (The O–rings should be up toward the manifold.) Check the Housing
O–ring for proper position in its groove, engage and firmly tighten the Housing hand tight only.
3. Rinsing the system:
•
Slowly open the Feed Water Saddle Valve fully counter clockwise.
•
The Holding Tank Valve should be open.
•
Check the Air Gap Window on the Dispensing Faucet to be sure that the drain water is flowing. (Refer to Figure
2, page 8.) The RO System is now making water.
•
Do not open the Faucet for at least 8 hours.
•
Do not use the fi rst three full tanks of water.
CAUTION: The RO Membrane is shipped with a preservative in it. To ensure proper rinsing of the RO Membrane it is
important to wait at least 8 hours before emptying each tank.
When the Faucet is first opened, expect air and carbon fines (very fine black powder) from the In–Line and Activated
Carbon Post Filters to be rinsed out. This is normal for the first tank of water or after the Activated Carbon Post Filters
are changed.

Normal Operation
It is normal for the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) of the water to be higher than normal during the first 5 gallons of
1.
operation; this is due to the sanitizing solution and the new Post Filters. After this water is rinsed to drain, the removal
rate should stabilize at a value of greater than 75%. The optional Water Quality Monitor measures the TDS reduction
and gives an indication of proper per for mance. Water pressure affects the production rate and quality.
