RO MEMBRANE REPLACEMENT:
1. Turn off the water supply to the RO system. Place the system where
the membrane housing(s) can be easily accessed.
2. Remove the black tubing from the membrane feed push fitting by
depressing the collar on the fitting with your thumb and pulling
the tubing from the push fitting. You should not have to remove
the blue and yellow tubes.
3. Lift the membrane housing from the retention clips and unscrew
the membrane housing cap. This may require two people.
4. Use a pair of pliers to grasp the membrane stem and pull the
membrane from the housing.
5. Remove the black housing O-ring. Wash the empty housing with
soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with hot, clean water.
6. Insert the new membrane into the housing, with the double
o-ring end first. The O-rings and tube must fit into the recess at
the bottom of the membrane housing. When the membrane is
aligned with the recess, firmly push the membrane into the recess
until it bottoms out.
7. Place the black housing O-ring on the housing rim and carefully
screw the lid back on to the base. Hand-tighten.
8. Reconnect the black tubing to the membrane feed push fitting.
9. If you have a dual -membrane system, perform steps 2 thru 8 on the
second membrane.
10. Open the Flush Valve and allow the system to flush for several
minutes to remove any particles.
11. Close the Flush Valve and turn on the water supply to the system.
12. Check for leaks.
