Page 2: Warning
WARNING: For correct operation of this appliance, it is essential to observe the manufacturer’s instructions. I. Before You Begin Quick Connect Fittings: If you come across a push-fit fitting, you need to firmly push the tubing into the opening until you feel a “click” which signifies that the tubing has pushed through the internal O-ring and is seated correctly. -
Page 3: Installing Inlet Fitting
Installing Inlet Fitting I. Kitchen Diverter Valve This fitting adapts to most kitchen taps that have either a 22mm Male Thread or a 24mm Female Thread. There are some taps on the market that are not compatible with diverter valves so please check before purchase. -
Page 4: Connecting Tubing Using Compression Fittings
IV. Connecting Tubing Using Compression Fittings Compression fittings are used in both the Kitchen Diverter Valve & the Washing Machine Adaptor. Rather than an o-ring seal with teeth (like the quick connect fittings), compression fittings crimp the tubing around a stem to seal the water, the compression ring then prevents the tubing from being removed. -

for the water to make its way through the unit. This will only happen on first use until the system is wetted, additional start ups should begin flowing relatively quickly from when the inlet it turned on. If you have completed flushing of ALL inline filters as mentioned in the Pre-Flushing Section, you will only need to run your filter system for about 30 –... -
Page 6: Testing Filters
IV. Testing Filters Reverse Osmosis membranes have a variance in their filter life and this is affected by several things including water quality, usage, temperature and filter maintenance. As they are the workhorse of the system, they are the most important filters to monitor and keep maintained. To measure the effectiveness of the RO membrane you will need a TDS/EC test meter. - Page 7 resistance when trying to swivel the valve. 3. If you screw the valve on and the collar ‘bottom’s out’ on the tap, you may need to add another washer (to bulk up the space). The unit is not producing any 1.
- Page 8 2. If you have a post GAC filter (Carbon), this will naturally increase the pH of the water. pH is the measure of Hydrogen in the water and this hydrogen will vent off the water if you leave it to stand and the pH will then drop back down to the normal level.
- Page 9 3. Expired Filters 2. Alkaline filters will naturally increase the TDS of the water, especially when new. If you have 4. Mixed Up Drain Line and low TDS water already, it is Drinking Line possible for the TDS level out of the alkaline filter to be higher than your inlet water.
