Installation Preparation
What is a Quick-Connect Fitting System?
A: Pull out the Blue Collar Clip, inser the Tubing, then put back on the Blue
Collar Clip, as shown in Figure A-1.
How to connect?
A: Pull out the Blue Collar Clip, then press down on the Lock Sleeve, and pull
out the Tubing, as shown in Figure A-1.
A: The majority of the U.S residents are using 1/2-Inch feed water pipe inlet
that connects to the Water Shut-off valve, which offers either a standard
3/8-Inch threads outlet or a 1/2-Inch threads outlet to the sink faucets water supply line. Customers could find the information on the label. Our accessory kit includes both 1/2-Inch and 3/8-Inch Metal Tee, as shown in Figure A-2. 1/2-inch Adapter 3/8-inch Adapter **How to Disconnect?** A: It is rare for the rubber washer that get twist inside the connector. If this does happen during installation, 1 ) Please use the end of the tuber cutter to pry open and remove the Lock Sleeve from the connector, as shown in Figure- Washer. 2 ) Adjust the washer
s position and carefully insert the Lock
Sleeve back into the connector.

Completed system inspection and start up
- After the system is set up, please carefully inspect all the connection, joints for possible loosen parts or connections.
- After inspection is complete, please keep the Tank Shut-off Valve at OFF position, and keep the Flush Valve at ON position. Prepare a bath towel and a water container to catch any water leak.
Top 3 causes of leaking are 1) The tubing was not fully inserted and secured.
- The O-ring was not in place or kinked. 3) Loosen cap/housing.

SOLUTION
---|---|---
Milky/Cloudy/Gray Water| 1.Excessive air inside the filtration system.
2.Filter was not properly flushed.| Air in the system is normal when the RO
system first installed. The Milky/cloudly water would disappear within 1-2
week of daily use.
Noise from faucet| Air trapped inside the facuet, tubing, and RO system.| Air
in the system is normal when the RO system first installed. The noise should
be fixed within 1-2 hours of regular use.
Slow water flow from faucet| 1. Low water pressure 2.Kinked tubing
3. Clogged filters or membrane
4. Lower Pressure inside the water tank| 1. Check your local water
pressure, it should be around 80PSI to keep the system at its best working
condition.
2. Check the system`s entire tubing connection to find and fix kinked
tubing.
3. Uninstall the examine all the filters from the system.
4. Use the digital tire pressure gauge to measure the tire pressure to
ensure it is at least 6 PSI.
Water taste issue| 1. Either filters or RO Membrane is depleted or expired.
2. Water tank was not in use for a long period of time.| 1.Use TDS
meter to measure the TDS level and replace the filters, including the Post
Carbon and Alkline filter.
2. Drain the water completely from water tank, refill and drain it again.
Repeat for at least 3 times to flush the tank.
Unable to flush the membrane| Broken/Closed Flush-Control-Valve| Turn the
Flush-Control-Vale at “ON” position; Replace the Flush-Control-Valve
Leak/Dripping off from dispenser/faucet| 1.Fittings are not tightened
2.O-ring is missing or needed to replaced (aged) 3.Air trapped inside
4.Inadequate Teflon tape applied/Gap| 1. Reconnect the fitting to make
sure it is securely connected.
2. Check the O-ring to see if it is damaged or missing; replace when
needed.
3. Flush the system for 5 minutes will solve the dripping off from faucet
issue.
