System Operation Parameters and Installation checklist
IMPORTANT! The following conditions for the feed water supply must be met or warranty will be void and manufacturer assumes no responsibility for damage to system or property.

Water Temperature Parameters

• Maximum: 105º F (40.6º C)
• Minimum: 33º F (0.55º C)

WARNING: Do not allow the system to freeze, the membrane always contains water and will be destroyed if frozen. Do not plumb system to hot water, The tubing will expand or burst, and membrane will be destroyed which will void warranty and manufacturer’s responsibility.

Water Pressure Parameters

• Maximum: 75 PSI (5.27 kg/cm2)
• Minimum: 40 PSI (2.81 kg/cm2) / 0 PSI for system equipped with electric pump.

WARNING: This system is designed to operate at a water pressure in the range of 40 PSI to 75 PSI (2.81 kg/cm2 to 5.27 kg/cm2). Operating at a pressure lower than the minimum required PSI will result in lower quality and quantity of product water. Operating at a pressure higher than the maximum allowed PSI will cause severe damage to the system.
WARNING: Do not proceed with the installation until water pressure is confirmed to be lower than 75 psi. A pressure regulator must be installed on the feed water source coming into the home to reduce water pressure going into the system and ensuring water pressure does not exceeds 75 psi.

Water Condition Parameters

• Turbidity: <5 NTU
• pH: 4 – 11
• Hardness: < 7 grains per gallon (< 120 ppm)
• Sulfide, Iron Manganese: < 0.01 ppm
• Chlorine: < 2 ppm
• Total Dissolved Solids (TDS): < 1,000 ppm

WARNING: If the hardness of your water is above 10 gpg (171mg/L), lime scale will build up rapidly on the membrane. Scale buildup will plug the membrane and make the system ineffective. We do not recommend this reverse osmosis systems be used with water in excess of 10 gpg (171 mg/L) hardness unless the water is softened prior to the reverse osmosis system.

Pre-install environment checklist

• Installation needs to comply with state and local laws and regulations.
• System must be installed indoor away from possible environmental damage
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
• The system is best installed under the kitchen sink. But if that is not feasible, you can install the system anywhere where there is a cold water supply with sufficient water pressure, and an outlet to drain off the rinse water from the system.

System Dimensions & Specifications

IMPORTANT! Please make sure there is sufficient space for the system to be installed properly. It is best to first place the system in the space to see if there is room for the system to be mounted and installed properly. Do not install the system in an area where it is exposed to extreme hot and/or cold weather or under direct sunlight.
WARNING: It is recommended to mount the system on the wall with the correct screws appropriate for the mounting location. If mounting the system is not an option, please make sure system is installed in a space with secure footing. Improper placement of the system may cause the system to tip over and break due to the added weight of the water.

• System Dimensions: 15”w x 5.25”d x 15”h
• System Weight: 8 lbs (3.6kg)
• Tank Dimensions (with Valve): 11.3”d x 16.75”h
• Tank Capacity: 1.9 – 3.2 gal. (7.2 – 12.1L)
• Tank Weight: 6.6 lbs (Empty) / 40 lbs (Full – Varies by water pressure)

Feed Water Adapter with 3/8” and 1/2” Connection Setup

Note: The feed water adapter is setup to work with either 3/8” or 1/2” cold water line. Please make sure the o-ring is properly placed before installation.

1. Converting 3/8” connection to 1/2” (See Diagram B)
   • Install the 3/8” to 1/2” outlet converter to the adapter by rotating clockwise until tightened.
   • Install the 3/8” to 1/2 inlet converter to the adapter by rotating counter-clockwise until tightened.

Quick Connect / Compression Fitting Installation Instruction

Note: This systems is equipped with quick connect fittings. These user- friendly fittings provide superior performance and leak-free seal if installed correctly.

Quick Connect Tubing Installation

• Inspect Tubing (See Diagram C-1) – The system comes with pre-cut tubing that is cut cleanly and squarely to ensure proper connection. Please ensure that the tube has a smooth outside diameter without any burrs, chamfers or score marks prior to inserting it into the fitting. Tubing that has not been cut properly can cause drips and leaks

•  Insert Tubing (See Diagram C-2) – Push the tubing through the collet and o-rings until it bottoms out against the tube stop. The collet holds the tube in place and the O- ring provides a leak resistant seal. If you need to remove the tubing always re-cut before connecting tubing again. Scores on tubing can cause failure.

• Push and pull the tubing toward and away from the fitting to ensure that is installed properly. (See Diagram C-3)

Quick Connect Tubing Removal

• Release the Tubing (See Diagram B-4)
  • Relieve pressure from the tubing and fitting. Push the collet flange against the fitting body while pulling the tubing away from the fitting to release it.

IMPORTANT! Should a leak occur at a fitting, the cause is generally defectively cut tubing. To fix a leak, relieve pressure, release tubing, cut o at least 1/4” from the end (square cut), reattach the tubing and confirm the connection is leak free. Each time a new connection is made, it is advisable to cut off 1/4” from the end of the tubing using these fittings.

Optional Compression Nut Fitting (See Diagram B-5)

• Slip the compression nut onto the tubing.
• Slide the plastic sleeve onto the tubing
• Place the insert inside the tubing
• Slide the compression nut up and tighten it onto the flange using a wrench.

Drinking Water Faucet Mounting Hole Preparation

IMPORTANT! Extreme care must be taken in drilling the hole for the dispensing faucet. The surface material of most sinks is extremely hard and brittle and can be easily chipped or cracked. If you are uncomfortable performing the following procedure it is recommended that an experienced plumber is consulted for techniques, installation or other assistance. The system’s manufacturer accepts no responsibility for sink top damage resulting from system installation. Before grinding or drilling put on appropriate eye protection (i.e. goggles) to protect yourself from porcelain or metal chips. EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD BE TAKEN WITH GRANITE, MARBLE AND LIKE MATERIAL.
WARNING: Many homes are electrically grounded through the plumbing. To protect yourself from serious injury or fatal shock, use a battery-powered hand drill only to make the hole. DO NOT USE AN ELECTRIC DRILL.

Using an Existing Hole

• Spare Hole: If there is a spare hole covered by a rubber or chrome cover, simply remove the cover and install the drinking water faucet at the location.
• Spray Hose: If the spray hose is not in use, remove the hose and mount the drinking water faucet at the location. Remember to plug up the outlet under the main faucet. If the spray hose uses a diverter at the base of the spout, be sure to remove it to avoid trouble later on.
• Hanging faucet: If drilling a hole is not feasible (i.e. rental home, drill tool not available etc.), the faucet can be placed inside the sink cabinet or wherever convenient without mounting.

Pre-drilling preparation

• Check under the sink in the area that you plan to install the faucet and make sure that there is ample of room to secure the mounting hardware. A space of approximately 2 inches in diameter is needed.
• REMOVE EVERYTHING FROM INSIDE THE SINK AND SURROUNDING AREA. Place paper towels in the sink to catch the shavings from the grinding and drilling.
• REMOVE EVERYTHING FROM UNDER THE SINK. Place newspaper or paper towels directly under drilling location in order to catch the drill shavings.

Drilling Porcelain or Enamel
WARNING: Metal shavings can oxidize and discolor porcelain. Be extrememly careful to cover porcelain sinks. Always wear gloves and protective eyewear when drilling.

• Using a cordless drill with a carbide grinding burr, gently grind away enough porcelain or enamel to more than accommodate the 7/16” (11 mm) drill bit. Approximately the size of a dime. Enough surface material must be removed to expose the base metal.
• Using the 1/4” (6 mm) drill bit, drill a centering or pilot hole in the center of the desired faucet location. It will make it easier for the 7/16” (11 mm) drill bit to cut through the sink
• Switch to 7/16” (11 mm) drill bit and operate the drill slowly and carefully— Especially when the drill bit is about to penetrate the metal. Otherwise, damage to sink may occur. Use lubricating oil to keep the drill bit cool while drilling.

Drilling Stainless Steel

• Use a hole punch and hammer to mark the location of where you want to install the faucet. Keep your taps short and control until a dent is visible, this will help keep your drill bit seated when start drilling.
• Apply lubricant to the drill area as drilling at high speed will create a lot of heat which can cause the metal to warp or burn.
• Using the ¼” (6mm) drill bit, at half speed to drill the hole. This would help prevent it from overheating.
• Switch to 7/16” (11 mm) drill bit and do the same to widen the hole.
• Once the hole is drilled, use the file to smooth out the edges and wipe away the shaving.
• Clean The Area
• Discard paper towels and newspaper used in the sink and below sink. Be very careful not to drop any shavings in the sink or on the floor as they will oxidize and stain surfaces very quickly.

INSTALLING THE SYSTEM

WARNING! Do not proceed with the installation until you have gone over the System Operation Parameters and Installation Checklist section on page 4 of this owners manual and comply with all the conditions listed in that section. Failure to comply may result in property damage and your system warranty will be voided due to non-compliance with the operation parameters.
IMPORTANT! Locate and test the main water supply valve to the house before installing the system. If the main water supply valve fails to shut off the water completely during the test, we recommend contacting your local plumber to fixed the valve before begin installing the system.

STEP 1. Feed Water Adapter Installation
Locating the Cold Water Supply Valve:

1. Locate the Cold water supply valve under the kitchen sink. Turn off the incoming cold water completely by turning the shut-off handle clockwise.
2. Test to see if the cold water line is completely shut off by turning on the faucet in the cold water position. If cold water cannot be turned off, the main water supply to the house must be shut off for the installation.

Connecting with Flex Line Riser: (See Diagram D-1)

1. Loosen the nut and separate cold water riser tube from faucet shank. Gently bent riser tube so that the feed water adapter fits onto the faucet shank.
2. Attached the feed water adapter to cold water supply valve.
3. Attached the cold water riser to the other side of the feed water adapter. (If necessary, apply 3 to 5 rounds of Teflon tape onto the feed water adapter before attaching the cold water riser.)

Test For Leaks:

1. Make sure the feed water adapter is in the shut-off position, perpendicular to the feed connection (See Diagram D-2)
2. Turn on the cold water supply to the sink faucet.
3. Check for leaks

Note: If there’s a water leak, check the connection and apply more Teflon or tighten the connection more to stop the leak.

Optional connection for connecting on Solid Copper Riser with Self-Piercer (Sold Separately): (See Diagram D-3)

1. Firmly clamp the self-piercer onto the riser tube by adjusting and tightening the lock nut CAUTION! Do not overtightened! This will crush and damage the copper riser.
2. Pierce the line by simply screw the T-handle valve clockwise until it stops.

Note: If the hole in the copper tube is not adequately pierced, this may prevent sufficient cold water supply to flow to the system and reduce the system performance. In this event, open and close the self-piercing valve several times to ensure an adequate pierced tube.

STEP 2. Drain Saddle Installation

1. Locate the optimal placement on the drain pipe to install the drain saddle. (See Diagram E-1)
   Note: The drain saddle should be installed above the trap and on the vertical or horizontal tail piece. To reduce potential drainage noise, it is ideal to mount the drain saddle as low as possible on the vertical pipe above the trap or on the horizontal tail piece. If the drain saddle is to be installed on the horizontal tail piece, it is recommended to install the drain saddle where the drain tube connection is on top of the horizontal pipe.

2. Mark the position of the hole on the drain pipe and drill a ¼” hole through one side of the drain pipe.
   (See Diagram E-2)

3. There is a piece of self-adhesive sponge gasket provided. Glue this sponge gasket to the inside of the saddle, this will cushion any gap between the saddle and the pipe. Make sure the hole on the sponge is thoroughly punched out and is aligned with the hole on the saddle.
   Note: Make sure to align the drain saddle hole to the drilled hole perfectly. Mis-aligning these two holes will block the rinse water and damage the membrane.

4. Attached the drain saddle to the pipe by gently tighten the two screws evenly on both sides of the clamp until the clamp is sung on the pipe. (See Diagram E-3)
   CAUTION! Do not over tighten! Over tightening may cause the drain saddle to break or crush the drain pipe.
   Dia. E-3

STEP 3. Tank Ball Valve Installation (See Diagram F-1)

1. Attached the tank ball valve on top of the tank.
   CAUTION! Do Not over tighten the adapter to avoid breaking and leak.

STEP 4. Drinking Water Faucet Installation (See Diagram G-1)

1. Place the faucet base over the drilled hole and make sure the hole is completed covered by the faucet base.

2. Insert the faucet shank through the faucet base and drilled hole completely.

3. From under the sink slip the large, black washer over the faucet shank. Next, slip the lock washer over the faucet shank followed by the thin chrome nut.

4. While holding the faucet assembly above the sink tighten the chrome nut below the sink with an adjustable wrench. Tighten the chrome nut until the faucet assembly does not move.
   (A faucet wrench is recommended if the space for proper mounting is very limited)
   CAUTION! Do Not over tighten the adapter to avoid breaking and leak.

5. Attached the faucet adapter to the shank.

STEP 5. Mounting or Placement of the System
WARNING! If mounting the system is not an option, please make sure system is installed in a space with secure footing. Improper placement of the system may cause the system to tip over and break due to the added weight of the water.

1. Position the system on the wall at the desired mounting location 3 – 4 inches from the cabinet floor to the base of the system. (See Diagram H-1)
   IMPORTANT! Be careful not to kink any of tubing on the system as kinked tubing can rupture and leak.

2. Using a pencil or marker and mark the mounting hole on the back of the bracket onto the wall.
   Note: Please make sure the bracket mount is leveled using a level tool to ensure evenly distributed stress on the bracket.

3. Set the system aside.

4. Screw the two screws into the wall at the marked position and make sure there is some protrusion space for the bracket to seat securely.

5. Mount the system onto the screw.

STEP 5. For AS-PR-100E Premier with Electric Pump Models only.
