Conditions

READ THIS FIRST
-Please pay attention to the following installation and safety recommendations:
-Read the installation manual before installing this system.
INCOMING WATER
Incoming water pressure must be between 45 PSI and 80 PSI for NU Aqua no pump reverse osmosis systems.
For incoming water pressure below 45 PSI and as low as 15 PSI, we recommend our reverse osmosis systems
with booster pumps. If your water pressure is above 80 PSI you will need a pressure regulator for your system.
Test your water pressure occasionally to make sure the system is performing. If your water is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality do not use this system without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Extremely hot or cold incoming water will damage the system and cannot be used. Do not install where water
hammer conditions exist, you should install a water hammer arrestor
LEAKS
The included Leak Stop Valve must be installed. Inspect all connections after the installation to make sure no
leaks occur, wait until after the system is pressurized (turned on) to inspect again. Check the system occasional-
ly after installation or maintenance to make sure no leaks have developed. Install the system in a location with
adequate drainage.
GENERAL
This RO System unit is for climate controlled indoor use only. Exposure to overly high or low temperature ranges
will damage the unit. Follow all of your state and local laws and codes regarding plumbing even if they differ
from what is stated in this manual. If your state law requires it or you prefer to we recommend using a professio-
nal licensed installer or plumber who meets the requirements of this system. All O-Rings, fittings, tubing, filter
canisters, and teflon tape wear out after a certain period of time. The lifetime of your components are subject
to change with the quality of the water supplied. Do not handle an unwrapped filter directly with your bare
hands as this can cause early filter failure. Use appropriate eye and face protection when performing any
drilling.
MAINTENANCE
The owner/user is obligated to properly maintain the RO System when necessary, at least every 1 year. This
includes the following:
-Always use NU Aqua Systems replacement filters in accordance with the filter change schedule.
-Sanitize your system as often as needed (how often changes with the quality of incoming water).
At least every 3 years:
-Replace the tubing, fittings, and filter cartridges.
-Replace the Teflon Tape on all threaded connections and fittings.
-Replace the O-rings on the filter housings, membrane housing, fittings and filter cartridges.
-Replace any connectors and filter housings with proper replacement parts.
At least every 5 years:
-Replace the faucet
