Step E: Install RO Faucet

INSTALL BATTERY

When the coin battery is first applied at initial start up,

the LED indicator light will flash in red, amber, green

sequence. All timers and counters are reset to zero. In

order to reset the time and gallon count feature, push the

button on the PWA and hold until the LED flashes and

release.The battery needs to be replaced at the time of

filter replacement. Use only lithium batteries (CR 2032 or

equivalent). Improper placement of battery could damage

electronics. Use care when inserting the battery to align it

correctly on the PWA with the proper polarity.

SELECT LOCATION OF REVERSE OSMOSIS

FAUCET MOUNTING HOLE

You will need to select the location of the Reverse

Osmosis Faucet.  You have three options to choose from:

•  Use the existing sink top hole for the spray hose or

soap dispenser 

(Must be 1-1/4” in diameter)

•  Drill a new hole in the sink 

•  Drill a new hole in the countertop next to the sink

1. Determine where you are going to install your Reverse

Osmosis Faucet. 

2. Check to ensure the Reverse Osmosis faucet will

mount flat against the mounting surface. 

3. Visually review the routing of the tubes from the

Reverse Osmosis filter assembly to the faucet. Check

to ensure there is adequate tube routing space

between the faucet and filter assembly.  

4. If drilling is needed, drill a 1-1/4" diameter hole in the

mounting surface. 

IMPORTANT: Drilling holes into countertops and

sinks should only be performed by an installer who

is qualified for drilling such materials.  Drilling of

surfaces made of stone or solid surface materials

such as granite, marble, Corian™ or other plastic

resin products or sinks made of porcelain or stain-

less steel may cause permanent, irreparable dam-

age to the sink or countertop surface.
