Installation Instructions (continued):

Refrigerator Hook-Up (optional):

Install 1/4" polypropylene plastic tubing if your refrigerator is within 25 ft. of your RO unit. Do not use copper tubing for RO product
water. If the refrigerator is over 25 ft from the RO Unit it is recommended to use 3/8" tubing. Install a tee in the blue tubing
between the outlet of the system and the faucet. It is recommended to install a ball valve in the line to your ice maker to allow
pressure to increase sufficiently in the storage tank for the ice maker solenoid valve to operate properly. Leave the ball valve in the
closed position until the tank is full after the start-up procedure is completed.

Start-up Instructions:

NOTE: If you have connected your RO system to a refrigerator/ice maker, make sure the ice maker is off. Do not
allow water to flow to the ice maker until flush is complete and the tank has been allowed to fill completely.
Connection from the RO to the icemaker system should have an inline valve installed before the icemaker so it
can easily be closed to prevent water flowing to the ice maker during start-up and periodic maintenance.
Your RO tank must be allowed to fill up fully for the ice maker system to work properly.
1. Turn Inlet Valve and Storage Tank Ball Valve both in open position.
2. Ensure the RO Faucet is closed.
3. Slowly open the cold water supply valve that you closed at the beginning
of the installation process.
4. Water pressure will start to build up in the RO system in about 2 hours as
pressure builds in the Storage Tank. Carefully inspect all Fittings and
Connections. Check for leaks and fix if any are found.
5. You must fill and purge a minimum of 2 tanks of RO water before it is ready
for consumption.
6. After purging, your RO system is ready for use.
NOTE: You will not have filtered water immediately. It will take 2 hours to
completely fill the Storage Tank to create liberal flow from the RO Faucet.
