Connecting The Water Supply - Pentair EVERPURE ROM IV Instrucciones De Instalación

Connecting the Water Supply

1 . Determine the length of 3/8" white plastic tubing needed
to connect the inlet on the left side of the filter with the
water supply . Be sure to allow enough tubing to prevent
kinking and cut the tubing squarely . Place a mark 3/4"
(1 .9 cm) from the end of the tubing .
2 . Wet tubing with water and insert tubing into water supply
fitting 3/4" (1 .9 cm) until mark is flush with fitting .
Installing the Drain Clamp
NOTE: If you have a single-basin sink with a disposal unit,
call Technical support at 800.279.9404 for options.
NOTE: Before installing the drain clamp, check the drain
pipes under the sink for corrosion. Corroded pipes
should be replaced before continuing
with installation.
3 . Attach the drain clamp to a vertical section of the drain
pipe, about 6" (15 .2 cm) above the trap . Make sure
the opening on the drain clamp is facing towards the
drinking water faucet . See Figure 6 .
Figure 6
4 . Using the fitting hole of the drain clamp as a guide, drill
a 1/4" (0 .6 cm) hole through one side of the drain pipe .
See Figure 7 .
5 . Remove the drain clamp from the drain pipe and enlarge
the hole with a 3/8" (1 .0 cm) drill bit . Use a file to remove
rough edges from the drilled hole .

6 . Make sure the black rubber gasket is adhered to the
inside of the drain clamp and place the drain clamp
assembly over the drilled hole . Look through the hole
and position the clamp so that the center of the clamp
hole is slightly higher (about 1/16") than the center of the
drilled hole, see Figure 8 . Tighten the clamp securely .
7 . Screw the plastic compression nut onto the drain clamp
until finger-tight .

Connecting the Faucet to the Drain
NOTE: This is a gravity-fed drain line. Any loops, kinks or
sharp bends must be eliminated before proceeding.
Failure to create a straight line to the drain may
result in reject water leaking through the air gap in
the faucet onto the countertop and below the faucet.
1 . Align the 3/8" red tubing from the faucet with the
compression nut on the drain clamp, see Figure 9 .
Create as straight a path as possible with the tubing .
Cut the tubing squarely below the nut and remove the
internal and external burrs .
2 . Loosen the compression nut two (2) complete turns .
Insert the tubing into the nut until it stops . Tighten with
fingers, then tighten one (1) to two (2) turns with
a wrench .
