Syem Startup
Syem Maintenance
Time Eimate: 8-12 hours (We recommend running 4 full tanks of water through your new syem. Each
tank should take 2-3 hours, depending on your home’s water pressure levels).
NOTE! Do not drink water from your new syem until you have completed Syem Startup. The
ushing process is needed for your lters to begin working.
NOTE! Do not send water through your fridge until ushing is complete, carbon nes ushed
during artup will clog your refrigerator.
1. Turn the Tank Valve to the Closed position.
2. Open the water supply to the RO Syem (use Cold Water Supply and Feed Water Adapter Valve) (Make
sure the main water supply is also on)
3. Open handle on the RO Faucet and wait up to 10 minutes for water to art dripping from faucet. Let the
water drip for 5 minutes.
4. Close the handle on the RO Faucet and wait 10 minutes for pressure to build. Then carefully check your RO
Syem for any leaks (Feel or visually inspect every connection point for leaks. If a leak occurs, turn the Feed
Water Adapter Valve OFF).
5. Turn the Tank Valve to the Open position.
6. Allow the Water Storage Tank to ll completely (this takes about 2-3 hours depending on your incoming
water pressure).
7. Flush the syem by opening the RO Faucet handle until the ored water is completely emptied and the
ow is reduced to a trickle (about 1-5 minutes).
8. Close the RO Faucet handle and allow the Tank to ll again.
9. Repeat eps 6-8 two more times (about 4-6 hours). (Occasionally check for leaks during this time)
10. Let the tank ll one nal time and sit overnight (8+ hours) before ushing the water
11. After the 5th tank is lled you may drink the water.
12. Check for leaks daily during the 1 week of use and periodically thereafter.
NOTE! You may notice that the water has a milky color during the 1 week. This is an indication of
air bubbles in the water. This is normal during this period and the water is safe to drink.
These recommendations are intended for maximum eciency of your RO Syem.
Filter and RO Membrane Storage
- Store unopened lters in an airtight container to prevent them from absorbing air. This prolongs the
shelf life of the lters and avoids any possible odors or contamination from the air.
- Using this method it is okay to ore lters for several years. Store in a cool, dry, dark place (avoid
heat and moiure contamination).
Extended Syem Non-Use
- If you will not be using the RO Syem for two weeks or more you will need to follow the “Vacation
Mode” guide.
