INTRODUCTION 

  

Thank you for choosing an ECHO Tec. reverse osmosis desalination system.  We trust that you will 
be completely satisfied with our product. 
 
The  Beach  House  Series  has  been  specially  designed  for  small  hotels,  marinas  and  beach  houses.  
The  high  power  efficiency  and  low  maintenance  cost  makes  high  quality  RO  water  in  many  cases 
more economical than land supplied water, if available.   
 
The  purpose  of  this  manual  is  to  allow  you  to  become  familiar  with  each  component  of  your  new 
ECHO Tec. desalination system.   

 

By  understanding  the  function,  importance  and  normal  operation  of  each  part  in  the  system,  the 
operator can readily diagnose problems when they first develop.  Such problems are easily corrected 
and require minor adjustments.  If left unattended, a small problem in one component will affect the 
rest of the system and can lead to an expensive repair. 

 

If  you  have  any  doubts  or  questions,  please  contact  us.    We  are  happy  to  help  “customize”  the 
seawater reverse osmosis desalinator for your special needs.
