READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
■ Check with your state and local public works
department for plumbing and sanitation codes.
You must follow these guidelines as you install the
Reverse Osmosis system.
Using a qualified installer
is recommended
.
■ If house water pressure is over the maximum (125
pounds per square inch), install a pressure reducing
valve in the water supply line to the Reverse Osmosis
system.
■
Be sure the water supply conforms with the
Specification Guidelines.
If the water supply conditions
are unknown, contact your municipal water
company or your local health department for a list of
contaminants in your area and a list of laboratories
certified by your state to analyze drinking water.
WARNING:

microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after the
system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may
be used on disinfected water that may contain
filterable cysts. This Reverse Osmosis unit contains
a replaceable membrane cartridge treatment
component critical for effective reduction of
Total Dissolved Solids. The water should be
tested periodically to verify that the system is
performing satisfactorily. This system is acceptable
for treatment of influent concentrations of no
more than 27 mg/L nitrate and 3 mg/L nitrite in
combination measured as N and is acceptable for
nitrate/nitrite reduction only for water supplies
with a pressure of 280kPa (40 psig) or greater.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.
■ Install or store where it will not be exposed to
temperatures below freezing or exposed to any type
of weather. Water freezing in the system will damage
it. Do not attempt to treat water over 100°F.
■ Do not install on
HOT WATER.
The temperature
of the water supply to the Reverse Osmosis system
must be between the minimum of 40°F. and the
