- WHAT YOUR REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM WILL DO -
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
the faucet or storage, while minerals and impurities are sent to the drain with RO waste water. The miner-
als and impurities are measured in water as total dis- solved solids (TDS).
The system includes replaceable pre and postfilter
sand, silt, dirt, rust particles, other sediments, and chlorine from the water supply before it can enter the
RO membrane. The postfilter removes any tastes
and/or odors that may remain in the water, after
passing through the RO membrane, 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 drink-
ing, cooking and other uses. Foods will look and taste better too. Having high quality RO product wa-
ter at your fingertips eliminates the need to buy bottled water. The storage tank holds over 2 gallons
of RO product water for your needs.
- BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO INSTALL THE RO SYSTEM -
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE YOUR KEN-
MORE REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE
INSTALLED ON SOFTENED WATER.
CAUTION: A refrigerator icemaker may not operate
properly when connected to a reverse osmosis sys- tem that has been installed on a water system that op-
erates outside of the specified pressures listed on page 18.
Check Your Water Supply: The cold water supply to the RO system must be within certain quality limits.
See the specification table on page 18. If supply water is not within limits, the RO system can not make
product water as it should and reduced RO mem- brane life will result.
Trained sales people at Sears can perform a free water
analysis. This basic test can help determine if any
additional water treatment is required before the RO system.
CAUTION: Chlorine in the water will destroy the
RO membrane. Most cities add chlorine to the water
supply to kill bacteria. The prefilter removes chlorine
up to the limits shown in the specifications before it
enters the RO membrane. It is important to replace
3
the prefilter cartridge at least every 6 months. See the RO care guide on page 15.
Check Parts Included: Unpack the carton and re-
move the RO system. In addition to the assembled
RO and the storage tank, the system includes the
parts illustrated below, a separate length of tubing, and this manual.
