Page 15: Preventive Maintenance
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE These recommendations are intended for maximize efficiency of RO water production by your system. 1) Filter maintenance a) It is OK to store filters shrink wrapped on the shelf for several years. b) To store the sealed, unopened filter, we recommend that it be kept in an air tight container. This prolongs the shelf life of the carbon filter and avoids having the filter absorb any possible odor from the air. - Page 16 There is an average of 4 gallons of reject water for every 1 gallon of product water produced.
