Traditional RO systems have waste ratios of approximately 4:1, which means there are 4 gallons of waste water produced for every 1 gallon of purified water. GrowoniX line of water filters achieve waste ratios of 2:1 with the EX100 through GX400 and an astounding 1:1 ratio with the GX600 and GX1000.
Do not install in places where a leak can cause damage. • GrowoniX EX Series RO water filters are rated using supply water that is 77°F, 475ppm, at 70psi. • Slower performance may be noted in areas with colder temperatures, higher water salinity, or lower inlet water pressure.
INFORMATION ON QUICK CONNECT FITTINGS GROWONIX WATER FILTERS USE QUICK CONNECT FITTINGS THAT ALLOW FOR EASY MAINTENANCE. MAKE A CLEAN TUBE CUT Cut the tube squarely and if using plastic tubing, ensure that the cut has not made the tube out of round.
Always turn incoming water pressure on slowly, allowing all air to be discharged from • the system before full water pressure is restored. GrowoniX GX600 and GX1000 water filters are designed to be used with between 40- • 80 psi of incoming water pressure. Do not exceed 80 psi of incoming water pressure If incoming water pressure is too high, install pressure regulator before unit.
FLUSHING THE KDF85 CARBON FILTER Growonix EX600 and EX1000 water filters can be upgraded with a KDF85 Catalytic Carbon Pre-Filter. The "KDF" carbon filter is a superior blend of highly reactive catalytic carbon and KDF85 process media used to remove/reduce iron, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine, chloramine, bacteria, scale, and algae.
FLUSHING THE MEMBRANE ELEMENT Growonix GX600 and GX1000 water filters come with a manual flush valve. Flushing the membrane element after each use for approximately 3-5 minutes will remove standing salts from the membrane, significantly extending membrane life. Even weekly flushes will improve membrane life and system performance.
REPLACING SEDIMENT AND CARBON PRE-FILTERS GrowoniX EX600 and EX1000 pre-filters should be changed regularly to ensure maximum membrane element life and system performance. When a 30% — 40% differential between the gauges is reached and output water pressure gauges is reached, pre-filters should be changed (i.e., when input gauge reads 80 psi and output gauge reads approximately 50 psi, you have a 30% differential—time to change pre-filters).
