REMOTE LOCATION FOR REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM
FIGURE 22
Possible remote locations for the RO nearby the kitchen
or bathroom sink include;
(1) a basement area underneath the sink, and
(2) an adjacent room or closet.
Longer lengths of tubing (see parts list) and telephone
cable extension (purchase locally*) may be needed.
You can run the drain tubing directly to one of several
suitable open drain points, as shown below, bypassing
the faucet airgap and p-trap drain. This type of drain is
the preferred over the p-trap drain adapter. Check your
local codes. Always be sure to provide an air gap
between the end of the hose and the drain point of
2 pipe diameters or 1 inch, whichever is larger.
*Telephone cable extension must consist of a male con-
nector on one end and a female connector on the other to
keep proper polarity. Polarity may be reversed if a cou-
pler is used and monitor will not work.
