AquaLiv Water System – Model A500
Usage & Installation Instructions
Welcome to AquaLiv Water and congratulations! You just purchased the most complete and comprehensive water purification and
enhancement system available today.
The AquaLiv Water System produces energized, structured, alkaline water - just as nature intended.
Enjoy the water!
DAILY USE
Some AquaLiv technologies require water to be moving, while others require water to be still. Therefore, it will take 24 hours of normal
use for the system to 'charge up' and up to a week of normal use for maximum power.
After installation, the water may be cloudy or taste heavily of minerals for 2-3 weeks. This is normal as it takes some time for the filters
to become conditioned to the source water. To help alleviate this condition, AquaLiv suggests flushing when an off-taste is noticed or
daily for the first week of use. Simply open the tap fully until the water slows (usually about 3 minutes) and then close. Allow pressure
tank to fill before using again (about 30 minutes).
Cloudiness is the result of two conditions in a newly installed system. The vortex process atomizes air trapped in the system. The other
is hydrogen-bubbles created by the pH/Alkaline/ORP cartridge. The water is safe to drink during this time and the hydrogen bubbles are
actually very healthful! If you do not want to drink the cloudy water, set the glass down and allow the tiny bubbles to rise to the top.
The A500 Purification Module requires filter changes every 12 months. However, each filter set includes a quantity of two
pH/Alkaline/ORP cartridges, as it should be replaced after 6 months of use- don't forget to mark your calendar. The Tubing Adapters
that screw into the cartridge can be reused once. Each set of replacement filters includes a new set of Tubing Adapters.
To order replacement filters, visit shop.aqualiv.com and select Filter Set FS500.
To order replacement or alternative installation parts, visit shop.aqualiv.com and select Parts.
The AquaLiv Water Revitalizer requires no maintenance. Attempts to open the tank may damage the head and sub-assembly. If the
internal tamper seals are broken, the system warranty will be void.
pH TESTING – pH testing drops and paper strips do not work with structured water. Use a digital pH meter.

There are two places to connect the tubing. Depending on whether you choose to mount the A500 Purification Module on the right or left side of the under-sink cabinet, choose the port pointing to the back of the cabinet. - Page 4 STEP #2: Install the Cold Water Connection Tee (do NOT use plumber’s tape) 1) Close the cold water supply valve to the kitchen faucet. Open the cold side of the kitchen faucet to relieve pressure and then close again. 2) Disconnect the cold water supply tube/hose/pipe at the end connected to the kitchen faucet. (Do not remove the tube/hose/pipe from the cold water supply valve) 3) Screw the Cold Water Connection Tee onto the kitchen faucet until you feel resistance, then turn an additional 180°- 360°.
