FAQ’s
Does this syem lter Fluoride, Lead, Pharmaceuticals, and Arsenic?
Yes, as well as Cyanide, Phosphate, Peicides, Sodium, Cadmium, Sulfates, and many other contaminants
up to certain levels. You may need other changes to media for high levels of these subances.
What PSI do I need? What is the operating pressure?
The minimum PSI for the syem is 40 and the maximum PSI is 80. If your PSI is too low you can purchase a
Booer Pumps to aid your syem. If your PSI is too high you can purchase a Pressure Regulator to reduce
your pressure to acceptable levels. Let us walk you through these options; call us at 1-800-992-8876 or visit

Does this syem soften water?
Your RO Syem will soften water. However, hard water does reduce the lifespan of your Filters.
Does it op lling automatically when lled? Why is the drain line conantly owing?
The RO Syem does op lling automatically when tank is lled (2-3 hours). If your drain line is conantly
owing this is a sign that your incoming water pressure is too low.
Can I inall this syem in the basement? If so, will it aect the eciency of the RO Syem?
Yes, the RO Syem can be inalled in a basement. However, if you do not have adequate water pressure
you may need to purchase a Delivery Pump. Contact Express Water and we’ll help you nd your solution.
What is the discharge rate?
The typical discharge range is one to three gallons for every one gallon produced. Your water pressure,
incoming water quality, and water temperature will aect your RO Syem’s discharge rate.
Why does it take so long to ll up the tank?
The purication process takes some time on its own. However, some water takes longer to process. Your
water pressure, incoming water quality, and water temperature will all aect how quickly your RO Syem
lls the Water Storage Tank.
How often do I change Filters? Is there an indicator?
The Sediment, GAC, and Carbon Block Filters should be changed every 6 months. The RO Membrane and
Inline Carbon Filter should be changed every one year at the same time as the second change of the 6
month lters. There is no direct indicator for lter changes. However, if you notice a drop in water quality
before the 6 months or 1 year mark this may mean that due to your water quality your lter has degraded.
If you reach 6 months or 1 year without noticing a change in tae you should ill change your lter at this
point as they are no longer viable.
Can I add additional lters to my current syem?
Yes, each syem is fully upgradeable. Check the Upgrades and Accessories section at expresswater.com for
more information.
Can I connect this syem to a refrigerator or icemaker?
Yes, you may need an Express Water Refrigerator Kit to do so. In some cases, your situation may require a
separate tank or Delivery Pump depending on how far away your refrigerator is from the syem. Contact
Express Water and we’ll help you nd your solution.
