INSTALL A REMOTE
DRAIN
POINT
AND AIR GAP
(Remote
Location)
You can also run the drain tubing to an existing drain in
the house. A floor drain, laundry
tub, standpipe,
sump,
etc. are suitable
drain points. See Figure
10. This type of
drain is the preferred
over the p- trap drain adapter.
Check your local codes. Longer lengths of tubing (see
parts list in back of manual)
may be needed.
Always be sure to provide
an air gap between
the end of
the hose and the drain point. This will prevent
water
from backing up into the system. Airgaps
are required
code in most areas.
To install
a remote
drain point, complete
the following
steps:
1. Locate the 1/4" red tubing on the Reverse Osmosis
fil-
ter assembly. See Figure 9.
2. Determine
if this length is long enough
to reach the
drain point.
3. if not, disconnect
the 1/4" red tubing
and replace with
an adequate
length of tubing to reach the drain point.
Refer to Step 6 later in the manual
on how to discon-
nect and connect tubing.
NOTE: A flow control
insert is located
in the red
tube, Refer to Key No. 14 on Page 26, This insert
must be saved and placed
in the new length
of tub-
4. Run the tubing to the drain point and secure at the
end with a bracket
(purchased
locally). See Figure 10.
Provide
a 1-1/2" air gap between
the end of the tube
and the drain. See Figure 10.
