a. If house water pressure is over 80 psi, install a pressure reducing valve in the water supply line. If house water pressure
is under 40 psi, install a Reverse Osmosis booster pump (contact your local plumbing supply company).
b. Removed (maximum of 2.0 ppm) by the Reverse Osmosis prefilter. ReGuLaR MaINteNaNceIsReQuIReD. Chlorine will destroy
the Reverse Osmosis membrane.
c. Theoretical tank capacity. When tested according to NSF/ANSI Standard 58 at 50 psig inlet pressure, tank capacity is
2.3 gallons.
