Step 5: Positioning The System
1. Main System: The main system can stand in the sink cabinet. No need to mount the system
to the wall.
2. Tank: The storage tank can also lay on its side if needed. The tank works fine in this posi-
tion. If the tank cannot fit under the kitchen sink, it can be placed elsewhere up to 20 feet
away from the RO system without much pressure loss.
Step 6: Connecting The System
Fitting Types: There are 3 types of fittings provided for connecting the system
1. Metal compression nut fitting (comes with 1 insert, 1 sleeve, 1 nut)
Fig. 10
Important! Use plastic sleeve on the plastic tubing we pro-
vide. Do Not use metal sleeve on plastic tubing or the connec-
tion will leak!
How to connect: - See Fig. 10. Slide the compression nut onto the tubing.
- Slide the plastic sleeve onto the tubing.
- Insert the
“insert” into the tubing.
- Insert the tubing into the opening of the fitting.
- Slide the brass nut up, then tighten nut with a wrench. No Teflon tape!
(An extra metal sleeve is provided in case you need to connect your own metal
tubing. Use Teflon tape if connecting metal tubing.)
2. Plastic compression nut fitting with built-in sleeve (comes with 1 insert, 1 nut)
