Kenmore 625.38556 owner manual

Your Reverse Osmosis (RO) Drinking Water System is a water treatment unit. It uses household water pressure to reverse a natural physical process called osmosis. Water, under pressure, is forced through a semi-permeable membrane where minerals and impurities are filtered out. Clean drinking water goes to the faucet or storage, while minerals and impurities are sent to the drain with RO waste water. The minerals and impurities are meas- ured in water as total dissolved solids (TDS).

The system includes replaceable pre and postfilter sedi- ment-carbon cartridges. The prefilter reduces sand, silt, dirt, rust particles, other sediments, and chlorine from the water supply before it can enter the RO membrane.

PLAN YOUR INSTALLATION

it is recommended to read through the entire manual before beginning your installation. Follow all steps exact- ly. Reading this manual will also help you get all the benefits from your system.

Your Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water System can be installed under a sink or in a remote location. Typical remote sites are a laundry room or utility room. Review the location options below and determine where you are going to install your system.

NOTE: For best system performance, the feed water to the system should be softened or less than 10 grains per gallon hard,

UNDER THE SINK LOCATION

The Reverse Osmosis Filter Assembly and storage tank are normally installed in a kitchen or bathroom sink cab- inet. See Figure 2.

A suitable drain point is needed for reject water from the Reverse Osmosis filter.

REMOTE LOCATION

You can also locate the Reverse Osmosis Filter Assembly and storage tank in a remote location away from the Reverse Osmosis Faucet. You will need a nearby water source and drain point.

See Figure 3.

CHECK SPACE REQUIREMENTS

Check size and position of items for proper installation into location chosen.

TOOLS NEEDED

Review the tools needed list. See Figure 1. Gather need- ed tools before proceeding with the installation. Read

and follow the instructions provided with any tools list- ed here.

The postfilter reduces any tastes and/or odors that may remain in the water, after passing through the RO mem- brane, and just before going to the RO faucet. To prevent water waste, an automatic shutoff valve closes when the RO faucet is closed and the storage tank is full.

Your reverse osmosis system gives you a continuous supply of sparkling clear, delicious water for drinking, cooking and other uses. Foods will look and taste better too. Having high quality RO product water at your fin- gertips eliminates the need to buy bottled water. The storage tank holds over 2 gallons of RO product water for your needs.
