There are a few basic steps about the installation and maintenance of your water treatment system. If you should have any difficulties or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you any way we can. It is recommended you hook your RO unit to a softened water supply.

Limited 3 Year Warranty Aquarium & Home Water Treatment Systems This unit is of exceptional quality, hereby warrants equipment to its first purchaser at retail as follows; This warranty covers filter cartridge housings, fittings and tubing and all components. Filter replacements including sediment cartridges, carbon block cartridges, DI cartridges and Reverse Osmosis membranes are the responsibility of the consumer. Exceptional water conditions are NOT covered. Potable water supplies ONLY.
Filter Change Sheet and Normal Operation Note: Filters are referenced in the order in which they appear in the system 1. Sediment Filter: This filter is first in line; removes particles that can be physically filtered out. An example of a particle that would be removed is sand. This filter’s life depends on the amount of particles in your water. The best gauge of this filter’s life is pressure drop. When you see a 5PSIG drop, you should change your filter.
quality of resin we use, the water you get will be, literally as pure as possible. The resin is a color indicating resin; it will slowly change from a dark purple/blue/black to a rust red/orange color. As this filter nears the end of its useful life you may experience “break though”. Keep this in mind, depending on the water quality needed. For applications demanding 18 Mega-Ohm water, 2 DI’s are STRONGLY recommended. Trouble shooting guide Problem High TDS after membrane Solution Clogged Pre-filters.
For R.O. (Dolphin) users, they may wish to purchase DI to remove the ammonia.. RO/DI (DOLPHIN, Mako, and Great White) users will have the ammonia removed by the DI. This will tax the DI, Chloramines appears in several forms, so the decreased life would depend on the state of Chloramines.
