11.0 Clear the Decks

If you have not already done so, the next step is to totally clean out under your sink. Get some rags to
wipe up any water drips that may be present from the installation process. Now, step back and look at
where you want the unit and the tank positioned. Please remember, you have to service the system so
consider accessibility.
TIP
Stand the unit inside a drip pan. Disposable aluminum baking sheets work fine. We suggest this
because you may have water drips while servicing the system or when you change out filters.

12.0 Preparing the Discharge Water Saddle Clamp

Find a location on the drain pipe under your sink where you wish to secure the discharge water saddle
clamp found in your Large Parts Bag (Fig. 20). Make sure—MAKE REALLY SURE — that the location you
have chosen is above the trap! (The trap is the "U" shaped part of the drain pipe) You may secure the
saddle clamp on a horizontal pipe JUST AS LONG AS YOU ARE ABOVE THE TRAP!!! Also try to secure
the saddle clamp where it will not block anything, like where you want to put your system or the R.O.
Water Holding Tank.
Drill out your chosen spot with a 1/4 inch drill bit. The 1/4 inch hole that you drill into the carefully
chosen location on your drain pipe is where the yellow discharge line will be inserted into and secured
into place with the discharge water line (Drain) Saddle Clamp.
Screw the tank top valve found in your Small Parts Bag onto the threads
found on top of the R.O Water Holding Tank (Fig. 18). Remember to ap-
ply 4-7 wraps of Teflon tape to the thread of the tank itself.
PLEASE NOTE: The long length of blue tubing used to flush your pre-
filters is the tubing you will use to hook up both the water storage tank
as well as the dedicated Reverse Osmosis faucet that came with your
system.
You will need to cut this length of blue tubing in two pieces accordingly.
The length of tubing used to hook up your kitchen faucet (which will be
attached to the left side of the Final Polishing Filter) will probably need to
be longer than the length of blue tubing used to hook up your R.O Water
Holding tank (which will be attached to the right side of the Polishing
Filter). Take a moment and judge how much tubing you will need for
each purpose based upon where the final placement of your system will
