Page 9: Product Information
Product Information This manual covers the technical aspects of the Economy RO drinking water systems. It is important to read this manual thoroughly so that you can properly apply, install, and service these systems. The substances reduced by this system are not necessarily in the customer’s untreated water. Warranty A limited warranty is extended to the original end user from Canature WaterGroup.
Page 10 Storage Tank Preparation NOTE: Changing the air pressure will alter the amount of water stored in the tank. Increasing the pressure will decrease capacity while decreasing pressure will increase capacity. Plastic Tank WARNING! Do not use the tank ball valve to lift or carry the tank.

Installation: RO75BP Unit The exact placement of the components will vary by installation. Although shown beneath a sink, it may be installed in a basement, crawl space, or in an adjacent cabinet. Regardless of where the system is installed, the flow sequence described by (figure 7) must be observed.

Page 15 The following steps will enable you to install the system quickly and orderly. Some variation may be necessary depending on the installation. See page 4 for a check list of tools and materials. Typical installations follow this sequence: 1. Select Component Installation Locations 2.
Page 16 Step 2 – Faucet Installation To simplify its access and installation, we suggest you install the faucet on the rear lip of the sink. It should be evenly positioned with the sink faucet and spray attachment. Should the spray faucet hole not be available for the installation, the sink must be drilled.
Page 17 One proven tool is the Relton porcelain cutter kit when used with a slow speed drill (300-400 rpm). • Drill a pilot hole through the porcelain and base material with the carbide tip drill. • Build a putty dam around the drill area. Add enough water to lubricate cutters and reduce cutting noise. •...

Lower faucet into mounting hole and place faucet over hole. Install slotted washer, spacer, faucet washer, and nut onto faucet nipple below sink and snug them up (Items 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8).
Page 21 Step 4 – Connect System Drain Plumbing codes require that the drain from reverse osmosis drinking water systems be discharged through an air gap siphon break. The faucet incorporates an air gap into its body. The discharge from the air gap must be connected to the plumbing system for proper drainage.

Page 23 Many homes are equipped with disposals and dishwashers. Special care must be taken when these appliances are present to prevent improper air gap performance. Home drain plumbing must be free of any blockage since this may cause a backup of dishwasher and disposal waste into the air gap outlet tube and result in improper air gap performance. To perform a simple drain check, fill the sink basin with several inches of water, pull the plug, and observe the drainage.

Factors Which Affect Performance Performance of the reverse osmosis membrane is affected by several factors which must be considered when judging the condition of the system. The main factors which affect system performance are pressure, temperature, total dissolved solids level, recovery and pH.
Page 30 an iron filter. Clear water iron can be removed more effectively by a softener. Particulate iron can be removed more effectively by a 1 micron filter. Organic-bound iron can be removed only by activated carbon or macroporous anion resin. If there is enough iron to exceed the EPA secondary drinking water standard and softening the water is not an option and the iron is soluble, then an iron filter is appropriate.

When tank is full, open the faucet to flush the system Flush Valve The flush valve can be used periodically to flush the reverse osmosis membrane. All need to be done is to turn on the shut off valve shown and close it after 10 minutes.
