-- STEP 6: SANITIZING, PRESSURE TESTING & PURGING --

SANITIZING

Sanitizing is recommended upon installation of the RO system, and after servicing inner parts. It is im- portant for the service person to have clean hands while handling inner parts of the system.

CAUTION: Be sure to remove the RO membrane and both filter cartridges as follows, before sanitiz- ing. Chlorine will destroy the RO membrane car- tridge.

1.Be sure the water supply to the RO is turned off, and the RO faucet is open to relieve pressure.

2.Referring to FIG. 9, page 11, press inward while turning the RO cap to the left (?) to remove from the bracket/membrane housing. Remove (use pliers) the RO cartridge from the housing. Place the car- tridge in a clean plastic bag.

3.Be sure the o-ring seal is in the RO cap. Replace the RO cap and push inward while turning to the right (?) to lock.

4. Remove the postfilter sump, turning to the left. Take the cartridge from the sump and place in the plastic bag. Replace the sump and tighten securely.

5.Remove the prefilter sump and cartridge. Also place this cartridge in the clean bag.

6.If needed to clean, flush the prefilter sump with fresh water. Then, fill with water to about 1”from the top. Add 1.0 ounce of chlorine (ordinary 5.25% household bleach ...Hilex, Clorox, etc.) andmix inthe water. Do not add chlorine first. Concentrated, it will attack plastics.

7.Carefully replace the sump on the prefilter head and tighten securely.

8.Slowly open the water supply to the RO.

9.Open the RO faucet, locking the lever upward, against the spout.

10.Allow water to circulate through the RO system until you smell the bleach odor. Then close the faucet and allow the RO to stand idle for 20 minutes.

11.After the 20 minutes, open the RO faucet and run water until the bleach odor is gone.

12.Turn off the water supply to the RO.

13.Be sure your hands are clean. Then, repeat steps

1- 5 and 7, only replace all cartridges.

Important: Refer to FIG. 9, page 11, and to page 12 when replacing cartridges. The prefilter (left side) cartridge has light gray coloring, and the postfilter (right side) has blue coloring.

PRESSURE TESTING

1.Do the preceding sanitizing procedures before pressure testing.

2.Open the water supply shutoff valve to the RO.

3.Open the main water supply valve and several house faucets to purge air from the system. Close faucets when water runs smooth.

4.In about 2 hours, pressure will start to build in the RO system. Then, carefully check all fittings andcon- nections for water leaks. Correct leaks if any are found.

Note: When the system is first pressurized, water may ‘‘spurt’’from the faucet airgap hole until air is expelled from the RO system.

PURGING RO MEMBRANE

Important purging instructions: The RO cartridge contains a food grade preservative that you should clean from it before using water from the system. The preservative will give product water an unpleasant taste and odor.

1.Allow the storage tank to fill for about 4 hours. Then, open the RO faucet until the tank is empty and flow stops.

2.Close the RO faucet and allow the tank to fill again for 4 hours. Then, open the RO faucet and empty again.

Repeat steps 1 and 2 to purge the storage tank 4 times. Then, the RO system is ready to make product water for use.
