Maximus II Reverse Osmosis System
with Remineralization
This Aquasafe™ Reverse Osmosis System has been specifically
designed as a DIY (Do It Yourself ) unit for easy installation and
maintenace purposes. You will insure a successful installation as
well as reliable operation by carefully reading this manual and
following its operational guidelines.
Your system requires a minimum of 50psi inlet water pressure.
City and municipality water utilities are mandated to provide a
minimum of 50psi however sometimes this is not what results.
If you are on a well system or on city/municipal water supply and
have less than 50psi we highly recommend a fully automatic
booster pump which is found on our websites general parts
and accessories page. We also highly recommend a booster
pump if your water is extremely turbid with ppm counts beyond
600ppm.
