Installation Instructions

FILTRATION DRAIN CONNECTION

Check and comply with local plumbing codes as you plan.

CAUTION: The options detailed below are the ONLY approved installation configurations. Do not use any drain saddle device.

NOTE: Failure to follow these Installation Instructions will void the warranty, and the installer will be responsible for any service, repair or damages caused thereby.

PREFERRED INSTALLATION: OPTION A—BASEMENT ACCESS INSTALLATION

Route the drain line DIRECTLY from the Reverse Osmosis system to a standpipe in the basement, bypassing the air gap provided in the faucet. The air gap installation is left to the discretion of the installer. The drain line may also be routed to a floor drain or washtub, provided that the air gap is maintained. Special air gap fittings are available to connect the drain line to the top of the standpipe.

PREFERRED INSTALLATION: OPTION B—DRY-VENTED P-TRAP INSTALLATION

Install a separate dry-vented p-trap under the sink to be used exclusively for the Reserve Osmosis drain line. A dry-vented p-trap is a p-trap that has its own vent/stack. Attach the drain line adapter to the p-trap and secure it with the slip joint nut and washer as shown. The drain line MUST be routed through the air gap provided in the RO water faucet.
