System Installation
Prior to Installation
*Installation is to comply with all local laws and regulations*
Inspect the package
Open the box and remove all of the components. Inspect them to ensure nothing was damaged during
shipping. If any part is cracked or broken, please immediately contact iSpring Customer Support for
replacement. Identify and get familiar with the components. Note, the RO membrane is a “wet” type, and it
is vacuum sealed with pure water.
Recommended tools list
●
Variable speed drill with two bits: ¼” (for drilling a hole on PVC drain pipe), ½” hollow diamond
(for drilling a hole on countertop for drinking faucet)
●
5/8”, 9/16” open-end wrench, or adjustable wrench, pliers
●
Phillips head screwdriver
●
Scissors or utility knife
Operating conditions
●
Minimum recommended water pressure: 30 PSI
●
Maximum water pressure: 70 PSI, otherwise a pressure regulator (part no. APR70) is required to
lower the PSI to the maximum level.
●
Operating water temperature range: 40 – 100 °F (4 - 37 °C) (This RO system is NOT designed for
HOT water). Within the operating range, the RO process will be faster and more efficient with the
water temp on the warmer side, and less so on the colder side.
●
Maximum TDS: 750 ppm
●
Install this RO system in a location where it is safe from hot/cold weather and direct sunlight. Avoid
hitting, dropping, or dragging the system as this can cause cracks and leaks
.
