The Better Water LLC 

PB2

 is manufactured to the utmost quality.  With 

proper care, preventative maintenance, and proper use, it should 
provide you with a very effective means of treating water for dialysis 
treatments. 
 
Before starting you should first read and have a thorough understanding 
of this entire Operator Manual.  It describes in detail the steps and 
procedures for safe usage of the 

PB2

 
The RO cannot do the job alone. It is important to understand and 
monitor the changing tap water conditions, which include contaminants, 
temperature, pH, pressure and flow-rates, which have a direct impact on 
the quality and quantity 

of the RO’s output.  Since municipal water 

conditions are constantly changing, good two-way communications with 
your municipal water supplier coupled with routine testing of the tap 
water is vital to the safe and effective operation of this device. 
 
Once the this device has been delivered, it is the responsibility of the 
Medical Director to ensure that it is used, monitored, and maintained in 
such a manner so as to satisfy all applicable standards.  Guidelines and 
other related information are available from: 
- Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
- National Association of Nephrology Technicians/Technologists (NANT) 
- Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) 
 
 
 
 
 
 

NOTE concerning pictures in this manual: 

Pictures of devices and components may vary slightly due to product 
changes, and therefore should be for general reference only.
