1.
Open the package containing the drain
saddle. See Diagram F.
Diagram F
2.
Peel the protective film off of the sponge
gasket. Apply gasket to inside of drain
saddle, using care to align sponge gasket
hole with drain port.
3.
Position the drain saddle on the vertical or
horizontal drainpipe from your sink.
Position as far away from the garbage
disposal as possible.
DANGER!! The drain saddle MUST be
installed on the side of the P–trap that goes
to the sink drain! If installed on the wrong
side of the P–trap, sewer gas could enter
the unit and damage it.
4.
Drill 1/4" (6mm) hole into the drainpipe.
CAUTION!! Be very careful when drilling into
drainpipe to not drill all the way through—
stop after piercing the first wall of the pipe.
5.
Mount the drain saddle. Align the drain
saddle port with the 1/4" drilled hole using a
small drill bit or other small straight object.
6.
GENTLY TIGHTEN the two screws evenly
on both sides of the clamp until the clamp
is snug on the pipe.
CAUTION!! To avoid breaking plastic
saddle or crushing drainpipe DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN!

Positioning the Tank
1.
Wrap four to five wraps of Teflon tape
around the tank threads at the top of the
tank.
2.
Hand tighten the plastic shut off ball valve
to tank stem.
CAUTION!! Hand tighten the valve only!
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! If valve is over
tightened it will crack and will leak.
IMPORTANT!! The tank pressure must be
between 8 – 10 PSI when measured
empty. This must be measured with a
good dial or digital pressure gauge. A
pop–up tire gauge will not give you an
accurate reading. If you do not have
access to a good gauge, contact your
local distributor to purchase one.
If your tank pressure is above 10 PSI, use
the tank valve to release pressure until
there is between 8 – 10 PSI. If your tank
pressure is below 8 PSI, use a bicycle
pump to increase pressure between 8 –
10 PSI.
3.
The storage tank should be located where
it can be removed if necessary. The
storage tank may be placed in either the
vertical or horizontal position without
affecting the system performance. If there
is insufficient space under the sink for
placement, the tank may be located in an
adjacent cupboard up to 50 feet away.
Reverse Osmosis Unit Placement
and Mounting
1.
Determine if mounting of the reverse
osmosis system is necessary or desired.
The system does not need to be mounted
on the wall of the cabinet if there is room
for it to sit on the floor. However, if it is
mounted to the side of the cabinet it is
