Operational Parameters

Operating Temperatures:
Operating Pressure:
pH Parameters:
Iron:
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids):
Turbidity:
Hardness: Recommended hardness should not exceed 10 grains per gallon, or 170 ppm. System
will operate with hardness over 10 grains but the membrane life will be shortened. (Addition of a water
softener may lengthen the membrane life.)
Note: The operating pressure in your home should be tested over a 24 hour period to attain the
maximum pressure. If it is above 85 psi a pressure regulator is recommended and if over 100 psi
then a pressure regulator is required.
Note: Reverse Osmosis water should not be run through copper tubing as the purity of the water will
leach copper and cause an objectionable taste in water and may cause pin holes. Be sure to follow
any state or local regulations.
