Whether you are a hydroponics hobbyist, serious enthusiast, or largescale gardener, GrowoniX is committed to bringing you the best solution for water purification systems.

WHAT IS REVERSE OSMOSIS?

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a filtration method that removes many types of large molecules and ions from solutions by applying pressure to the solution when it is on one side of a selective membrane. This filtering process ensures that the solute (wastewater) is contained within the pressurized chamber while the pure solvent (RO water) is allowed to pass freely through the membrane.

TUNED FOR GROWING

NO ADDITIONAL PRE-FILTERS NEEDED

Chloramine removal requires KDF Carbon option

WHY USE A GROWONIX LIL BOSS?

Chlorine, Chloramine and Chloride are but a few of the chemicals added to municipal water sources to kill harmful bacteria in our drinking water. This chlorine in low doses may not harm humans, but will kill beneficial bacteria and microorganisms essential for healthy plant growth. Our Lil Boss de- chlorinator will eliminate 95% of the chlorine in the water, and 90% of the sediment. Chloramine, a mix of chlorine and ammonia, used as a disinfectant, is being applied more and more to local water supplies because of its inability to evaporate when left in the air. Chloramine will not evaporate. To eliminate chloramine, a special KDF filter is required for the Lil Boss which GrowoniX or your local dealer can supply. Ask for the GrowoniX KDF filter. The Lil Boss will not lower your parts per million or ppm. Only a Reverse Osmosis membrane can eliminate those particles. GrowoniX sells a complete line of Reverse Osmosis water filters from 100 gallons per day all the way up to 2000 gallons per day. You can see our complete product line at www.growonix.com.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

The Lil Boss de-chlorinator is designed to be used between 1-80 psi of incoming water pressure. Do not exceed 80 psi of incoming water pressure. If the incoming water pressure is too high, install a pressure regulator before unit. Pressure regulators are available at www.GrowoniX.com Always turn incoming water pressure on slowly, allowing all air to be discharged before full water pressure is restored.

Product Usage Instructions

Ensure that the incoming water pressure is between 1-80 psi. Do not exceed 80 psi of incoming water pressure.
If the incoming water pressure is too high, install a pressure regulator before the unit. Pressure regulators are available at www.GrowoniX.com.
Always turn incoming water pressure on slowly, allowing all air to be discharged before full water pressure is restored.
Connect the Lil Boss de-chlorinator to the water source using the garden hose adapter included in the package.
Connect the product water out to the desired output using the 5′ length of 3/8 tubing included in the package.
Monitor the input pressure gauge and output pressure gauge to ensure that the Lil Boss de-chlorinator is working correctly.
Replace the sediment filter and carbon filter when required. The Lil Boss de-chlorinator has a filter capacity of 16,000 gallons.
If you need to remove chloramine from your water, a special KDF filter is required for the Lil Boss. GrowoniX or your local dealer can supply the GrowoniX KDF filter.

This filtering process ensures that the solute (wastewater) is contained within the pressurized chamber while the pure solvent (RO water) is allowed to pass freely through the membrane

TUNED FOR GROWING – IN TUNE WITH OUR CUSTOMERS
Traditional RO systems have waste ratios of approximately 4:1, which means there are 4 gallons of wastewater produced for every 1 gallon of purified water. GrowoniX line of water filters achieves waste ratios of 2:1 with all 200-400 GPD systems and an astounding 1:1 ratio with the 600-1000 GPD systems. GrowoniX has created a complete product line that will address the needs of hydroponic operations of all sizes. Our filters will significantly reduce your water use while dramatically increasing your yields
