Installation Guide and Technical Information

DRILLING THE HOLE FOR THE TAP

The faucet should be positioned with aesthetics, function
and convenience in mind. A flat surface is required for the
tap base so that it can be draw down tight.
Conditions may be present which could eliminate the need
to drill a hole in the sink.
a. A hole previously installed in the sink, covered by
a chrome hole cover- remove the cover and mount the tap.
b. A spray hose neither functioning nor desired.
Remove the spray hose and plug the outlet under the main
faucet. Be sure to check if the spray uses a diverter at the
base of the spout. If so, remove it to avoid trouble later.
Spray diverter may pop up an shut off water to the main
faucet.
If space is not available on the upper sink area, the faucet
could be located on the counter top at the edge of the sink.
Be careful to watch for obstructions below, i.e., drawers,
cabinet walls, support braces, etc. If the counter top is
ceramic tile, the method for drilling the hole would be the
same as for porcelain sinks.
The sink drilling process, although not complicated, requires
a certain amount of caution and forethought. Porcelain sinks
can be chipped if care is not exercised when drilling the hole
for the faucet assembly.
PORCELAIN ENAMEL SINKS
A1/2" hole is required. To drill the hole, begin with a small
drill bit as guide hole, then use a 1/2" carbide tipped drill.
When starting to drill, keeping a firm and steady downward
pressure, slowly begin though the porcelain portion of the
sink so that chipping is cut down to a minimum. When the
hole is achieved, clean the area of metal chips. (Metals chips
on porcelain will stain very fast.)
STAINLESS STEEL SINKS
Same as porcelain sink. When the hole is achieved, file away
any severe roughness and clean the area of metal chips.

STARTING THE SYSTEM

a. Make sure all connections are secure.
b. Slowly open line piercing valve on feed water
adapter allowing water to enter system.
c. Move ball valve lever on storage tank to open
position.
d. Allow system to run while cleaning up tools. It
will take several minutes before water begins exiting the
RO system and several hours for the system to fill the
storage tank.
e. Check all connections, including those inside the
system for leaks and tighten fittings as necessary.
NOTE:
* Due to the variations in plumbing configurations
where the system will ultimately be installed, we assume
no liability for the determination of the proper equipment
necessary to meet your requirement.
* Air bubbles may be present for the first few days
after installation.
* Drain the first full tank of fresh water produced
by the RO system.

INSTALLATION.

Your Reverse Osmosis System has been thoroughly tested
and inspect for leaks, product water quality, product
water output, and shut-off function, for at least 12 hours
at our factory. Therefore, the RO system might have some
water in it.

MOUNTING THE BALL VALVE

Make sure it is tight but not over-tighten. Teflon (PTFE)
tape must be used on the male port on top of the tank.

MOUNTING THE DRAIN CLAMP

The drain clamp will fit most standard drain size of 1
1/4". Install the drain clamp above the P-trap and drill a
1/4" hole where the drain tube is to be connected.
Tighten bolts and nuts evenly, brackets should be parallel.

MOUNTING THE RO SYSTEM

Make sure there is sufficient space under the counter for
installation. Where space is not available for the storage
tank, it may be placed in the next adjoining cabinet.
Mounting holes are on the back of the RO system so it can
be mounted on either side of the cabinet wall. The RO
system should be mounted at least 3" from the cabinet
floor and secured by using the two screws.
