SERVICE LOG ……………………………………………… 12 Congratulations! Your choice of the Reverse Osmosis System will yield purer, healthier, and better tasting water in your household. You have invested in a very sophisticated home drinking appliance. Please take the time to carefully review this manual. To realize your system’s maximum performance, you should become familiar with your system and how Reverse Osmosis works.
INTRODUCTION Your Reverse Osmosis (R.O) System provides clear, fresh water in your home. This compact unit is designed to force pressurized water through a semi-permeable membrane which rejects contaminants suspended in the water. This membrane permits passage of the improved water to a holding tank. It is then available for use for drinking, cooking, or making ice cubes.
HOW YOUR REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM WORKS Your Reverse Osmosis System is completely self contained and uses stages for primary filtration and separations. FIRST STAGE: Prefilter The prefilter protects the reverse osmosis membrane from clogging by removing suspended and particulate matter larger than approximately 5 microns.
DIRECTIONS FOR CHANGING FILTERS HOW OFTEN YOU CHANGE YOUR FILTERS VARIES ON THE QUALITY OF WATER COMING TO THE RO AND THE AMOUNT OF WATER PRODUCED BY THE RO. THE RO FILTERS SHOULD BE CHANGED AT LEAST EVERY YEAR, BUT IF WATER QUALITY IS LOW OR HIGH AMOUNTS OF WATER ARE USED, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THEY BE CHANGED MORE OFTEN.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS See page 7 and 8 for illustration IMPORTANT: If water pressure exceeds 90 psi you must install a pressure regulator. IMPORTANT: Some RO’s use quick connect plastic fittings, to work properly the tubing must be smooth, cut straight and inserted completely into the fitting. If tubing is scarred, cut at an angle or not inserted all the way there is a higher possibility of leaks.
COMMON PROBLEMS/SOLUTIONS “I have too much Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in the product water” 1. Membrane expanded. Replace membrane module. (Contact your local dealer) 2. Membrane attacked by chlorine. (does not Carbon prefilter may be exhausted. Replace with apply to CTA element) new cartridge.

“My R.O. is constantly running.” 1. Check tank pressure and check valve. Tank pressure should be 10 psi empty. “I’ve noticed poor taste/odors in the product water.” 1. Increase in product TDS. Flush tank completely. See “I have too much Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in the product water.”...
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. This reverse osmosis system contains a replaceable treatment component critical for effective reduction of total dissolved solids. The product water shall be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing satisfactorily.
