How To Sanitize The Purification Assembly
Sanitizing the purification assembly generally
requires:
• New prefilter cartridge(s) and filter housing O-ring(s)
• Water Factory filter wrench or equivalent
• Common household bleach (5.25% - NON scent-
ed)
• Measuring spoon or 0-10 ml graduated cylinder
• Removal of the purification assembly from its
location
• Cloth or sponge to wipe up any spillage
A) Shut off feed water and open RO faucet to empty
tank
B) Follow instructions on changing prefilter
C) Before attaching filter bowl(s) with new cartridge(s),
pour one teaspoon (5 ml) of household bleach into
the center of the filter cartridge(s).
NOTE: For 4500 and 5000 Series appliances, it is
important that the bleach be poured directly down
the center of the carbon prefilter cartridge to fill the
small receptacle at the bottom of the bowl. When
attaching the bowl, always keep upright to prevent
spilling the bleach.
A) Allow system to run for at least six hours. Drain
