• This system may be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position, but must be positioned to allow access for service and filter cartridge changing. At the same time, the assembly should be relatively near the spigot to maximize flow rate.
• The storage tank can be located where it cane be removed if necessary, but does not take away needed storage space. The storage tank can be placed on its side without affecting the performance of the system. If there is insufficient room under the sink, the tank may be located in an adjacent cupboard.
• Should you need it additional 1/4" poly tubing can be purchased at most hardware and plumbing stores.
• The sink-top faucet should be positioned to assure a free flow pattern into the sink. It must also be in a location that allows ready access to the mounting hardware from under the sink.

1. Using a VSR drill with a carbide grinding burr, gently grind away enough porcelain or enamel to more than accommodate the drill bit (about the size of a dime). Enough surface material must be removed to expose the base metal.
2. Using the 1/4" drill bit, drill a 1/4" hole through the base metal. Operate the drill slowly and carefully, especially when the drill is about to penetrate the metal. If necessary use a drop of two of oil in the hole.
3. Repeat step 2. Using the 1/2" drill bit.
4. Mount the sink top factcet in the hole and using an adjustable wrench (or hand) to hold the faucet, tighten the 9/16" nut.

*** If it is not availabe to drill a hole, you may use a faucet-bracket instead. *** 

The water supply connector that comes with the unit is made up of two parts; 

1. Assemble the water supply connector by inserting the deliver-valve. Screw the deliver-valve into the side of the water supply connector using 3 to 4 wraps of Teflon tape.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the cold water faucet underneath sink. Attach and tighten water supply connector assembly being careful not to pinch or crimp any tubing or water supply line while tightening.

1. Position as far away from the garbage disposal as possible.
2. The drain saddle should be installed above the p-trap on the vertical or horizontal tailpiece.
3. Drill a 1/4" hole into the drain pipe observing the above position.
4. Mount drain saddle aligning holes. (Drill bit may be left in saddle hole for alignment).
5. Carefully tighten both screws on drain saddle till snug. Do not over tighten.

1. Wrap 4 to 5 winds of Teflon tape around metal tank threads. Hand tighten plastic shut-off valve to tank (firm but not over tight).
2. Tank should come from the factory with 8 to 14 lbs. PSI of air when measured empty.

1. Mark screw locations at the desired positions. Use the two holes on back of purification assembly mounting bracket for marker guides.
2. Screw wood screws supplied with unit into marked positions. Leave screw heads out a little.
3. Mount purification assembly onto screws.

1. Remove the membrane housing cap.
2. Install the membrane by carefully pushing the spigot end into the socket at the far end of the housing until completely in.
3. Replace housing cap (watch out-the o'ring).

1. With everything connected, turn on the water, check for leaks.
2. Make sure the storage tank shut-off valve is 'OFF'. Open the sink top faucet.
3. Within a few minutes (up to 15) the water will start to run from the faucet slowly.
4. Let the water run for at least 30 minutes. This flushes the carbon filters on first time use.
5. After initial flushing, open the shut-off valve on the tank and close the sink top faucet.
6. Tank will now fill (Usually 2 to 3 hours). After the tank has filled, open the sink top faucet and drain all the water until the storage tank is empty, and there is only a small flow from the sink top faucet.
7. Close the sink top faucet. The system is now ready for use.

1. Change filters regularly every 6 to 12 months and have the membrane checked annually.
2. Automatic ice makers require water in the line to work properly. If you are draining the storage tank or have no water during initial start up, turn off the ice maker until the sink top faucet has a steady flow.
3. To connect the ice makers or refrigerator, you need to use "T" type connector.
