PLAN THE INSTALLATION

The Reverse Osmosis System can be installed under a sink or in a remote location. Typical remote sites are a
laundry room or utility room. Review the location options below and determine where to install the system.
UNDER THE SINK LOCATION
The Reverse Osmosis Filter Assembly and
storage tank may be installed in a kitchen or
bathroom sink cabinet.
REMOTE INTERIOR LOCATION
The Reverse Osmosis Filter Assembly and
storage tank may also be installed in a
remote interior location away from the
Reverse Osmosis faucet. A nearby water
source and drain point are required.
PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
1. Before starting, close the hot and cold
water shutoff valves.
2. Temporarily place tank and filter assembly
into planned location. Check position of
items and space required for installation.
Ensure tubes may be routed without
kinking.
3. Remove tank and filter from planned
location and set aside.
