INTRODUCTION The Reverse Osmosis membrane is a specially Your new Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water constructed, fully aromatic polyamide film, and is System uses a combination of filtration classified as a Thin Film Composite (T.F.C.). technologies to reduce unwanted contaminants in The spiral wound construction of the Reverse your water supply.
REVERSE OSMOSIS PREPARATION A. Reverse Osmosis Components The following components comprise the Reverse 9. Reverse Osmosis Sediment Pre-filter, Osmosis Drinking Water System. (Refer to Fig. 1, shrink wrapped. below for general system layout.) 10.Reverse Osmosis activated Carbon Pre- filter, shrink wrapped. 1.
B. Tools Recommended for Reverse Osmosis C. Site Selection for Major System Reverse Installation Osmosis Components The following tools will cover most of the The Reverse Osmosis System was designed to fit Reverse Osmosis installation sites under a sink, however, because of space limitations encountered: or other reasons, the Reverse Osmosis system's flexible design allows for other locations.
4. Reverse Osmosis Feed Water 2b. Drilling a porcelain sink: Connection – The Reverse Osmosis Feed It is best to use a special 5/8" diameter cutter Water Saddle Valve should be located as designed for porcelain. A carbide tipped close to the manifold assembly as masonry bit is a second choice.
B. Reverse Osmosis Feed Water Ball Valve Installation 3. With the Reverse Osmosis Feed Water Ball Valve closed, open the Reverse Osmosis Decide on location. Do NOT connect sink faucet and the water supply and allow Reverse Osmosis to a hot water feed line. the water to run for a few minutes to flush Water over 100ºF may cause permanent any debris caused by the installation.
C. Reverse Osmosis Drain Clamp Installation 3. Locate the 3/8" Drain Tubing connected to the Reverse Osmosis System. Route to the Choose the Reverse Osmosis drain outlet Reverse Osmosis tubing to the Drain Clamp location. and trim to length. The following are instructions for discharging CAUTION: The lowest point of the line in the sink drain pipe.
