Packing list

System Installation

Installation preparation

1. Check and make sure the package is in good condition and everything in packing list is included in the package. Contact iSpring Customer service if there is any missing part.

2. The system must be installed at a location that has access to power plug, with flat surface that is kept away from direct sun light or freezing environment. The incoming water pressure must be at least 30 psi.

3. Tools required for installation:

   • Plumbers Tape

   • Screw drever

   • Spanner wrench

   • Utility knife
     

   • Fash Light

   • Towels

Install the feed water adapter

• Shut off the cold-water supply valve and unscrew the kitchen faucet connector pipe.
• Install the feed water adapter on the cold-water supply valve and tighten with a spanner wrench: (make sure the O-ring is seated inside the adapter).
• Re-install the cold-water hose on the feed water adapter, then tighten with a spanner wrench (make sure the O-ring is seated inside the hose cap).
• Refer to the below diagram and make sure the connection is correct. Plesase not that the bushing is installed at different locations based on acutal plumbing setup (3/8” pipe and 1/2″ pipe). The 3/8″ quick fitting end should ALWAYS be connected to the white PE tubing that goes to the system water inlet port and has nothing to do with the existing fitting size.

Install the faucet

Drill a hole on the countertop if there is not one available.

1. Choose a suitable location on the sink or countertop and install the faucet on a flat surface as shown in the image below. You will need to drill an 1″ hole (no larger than 1 1/2″) if your kitchen sink does not have an existing one.

How to drill a 1″ hole in your sink or counter-top
a. Depending on the type and thickness of countertop where the hole is going to be drilled on, you may consider hiring an experienced professional to ensure the hole is drilled correctly.
b. Choose a half inch Diamond Core Bit for granite, and a titanium drill bit for steel. Do NOT use a hammer drill on natural stone, glass, and ceramic.
c. An indent should be made with a punch on steel before drilling to help guide the bit.
d. Use caution when drilling on a Porcelain sink, as it could be easily chipped. Set drill speed on slow. Press the bit downward firmly until breaking through the slippery surface. Some people found it is easier to secure the bit by drilling through a piece of wood that is firmly pressed on the surface.
e. Use coolant to disperse heat. Choose water for granite, and oil for steel. Use the Water Suction Cup to hold coolant inside and prevent the drill bit from slipping.
f. Starting at slowest speed, hold the drill firmly and vertically and prevent the drill bit from slipping on the counter.
g. Once breaking through the smooth surface, swirl the drill a little to apply pressure in a circle evenly. Be patient and deliberate. It can take 20 – 40 minutes to drill through one inch.

Place the faucet in the hole and refer to the following image.

Connect the system with power cable and PE water tubing
Refer to the following diagram for water tubing and power cable connections.

a. Cut the WHITE 3/8″ PE tubing to the appropriate length using a utility knife based on the system position.
b. Insert one end of the tubing into the feed water adapter quick fitting. Make sure at least 1/2″ of the tubing is inserted. The tubing should not be able to pulled out by hand. Put on the locking clip after the tubing is secured.
c. Insert the other end of the WHITE tubing into the 3/8″ port marked with “Inlet water” at the top rear of the system. Again, make sure at least 1/2″ of the tubing is inserted. The tubing should not be able to pulled out by hand Secure the connection by inserting the enclosed 3/8″ C-clip.
d. Cut the 1/4″ BLUE tubing and 1/4″ RED tubing with a utility knife to an appropriate length. The blue tubing will be used as the tubing to faucet and the red tubing will be used as the tubing to the drain.
e. Insert the blue tubing into the 1/4″ port marked “Drinking Faucet”. Insert the RED tubing to the port marked “Drain” at the top of the system. Insert the 1/4″ C-clips to lock the connection.
f. Connect the other end of the 1/4″ BLUE tubing to the previously installed smart faucet. The faucet came with a 1/4″ quick fitting. Like other quick fitting installation, make sure at least 1/2″ of the tubing is inserted into the faucet fitting. The tubing should not be able to pulled out by hand Secure the connection by inserting the enclosed 1/4″ locking clip.
g. Choose a spot on the drain pipe that is convenient for installing the drain saddle and tubing. A horizontal pipe is recommended to minimize the dripping sound. Drill a 1/4″ hole in the drain pipe, and paste the black sticky pad around the hole. Cut the 1/4″ RED tubing end tip to make a 45- degree angle. Insert the tubing through the hole to the drain pipe, install the back plate, and tighten the two screws with hex nuts while the tubing remains in the hole. Pull the tubing lightly to make sure it is secure. Shown as below.

System Startup
a. To start the system, plug it in, turn on the feed water adapter, then turn on the faucet. Vibrations can be expected as the pump starts.
b. Turn on the faucet and let it run for at least 30 minutes to rinse the system. This should be done each time the PPC filter is replaced. Refer to the below “Display and Operating Area” section for more information about manually flush the system after the membrane has been replaced.
c. Carefully check all fittings for a secure connection. Use a damp paper towel to wipe clean and verify that no connection is leaking.
d. Once the rinsing is completed, and no leaks is presented, the system is ready for use.

**Display and Operating Area

**

The display/Operating area is located in the lower front side of the system that is a made with a combination of 3 indicating lights and 2 buttons.

To manually Flush the system:
Press “select/flush” for 5 seconds. The machine will start the flush process that lasts for 30 seconds. During the process, the red light will flash.

“On” Light:
The white light flashes when the system is running and filtered water is being dispensed. This light remains on when the system is in standby mode.

Reset filter:
Filter life indicating lights remain to be white and started to blink in white when the corresponded filter life has less than 10% remaining, then turn red when the filter needs to be replaced ASAP.

Filter life indicator must be reset each time the filters is replaced.
To replace the filter,

1. Shut off the water supply and turn on the faucet to drain the remaining water in the system.
2. Unplug the power adapter.
3. Press the button on the filter to release filter lock. Remove the package of the new filter, then insert the filter into the system firmly, make sure the filter is locked in place.
4. After replacing the filter, press and hold “reset” button for 3 seconds to enter the reset mode, by default the indicator light of “PPC” filter will be flashing red with one beep.
5. Short press “select/flush” and select the RO filter indicator light and select the filter which needs to be reset. Repeat the process for a different filter light if needed.

Routine Maintenance
Actual filter replacement cycle varies depend on source water quality actual usage of the system (family size, usage frequency etc.). Time between each filter replacement should not exceed the maximum suggested data. Failure to replace the filters on time will void the warranty and may cause damage/leaking to the system that leads to further damage to the property where the system is installed.
