Drain Valve connection
The drain line is for flushing particle buildup out of the
system during self cleaning. When connecting the drain
line, pay attention to the following guidelines:
• The drain line plumbing must be able support the
flow rate whenever the system flushes. This flow
rate is dependent on the inlet water pressure, inlet
pipe size, and system.
• The drain line leading out of the system must be
as short as possible and slope downwards without
any kinks or loops.
• The drain line plumbing must be position and
secured at least 2 inches above the drain (Figure
3). This air gap protects the system from contami-
nation in the event of a backed-up drain.
• The drain used must not be blocked or restricted.
• The drain used must be as large or larger than
the drain line plumbing.
permeate line plumbing
To ensure the highest quality and safest water, it is
recommended that a check valve (to prevent backflow)
be installed in the water line after the permeate connec-
tion. This will help prevent possible contamination of the
filter system due to other equipment downstream. The
check valve (not supplied) should be mounted close to
the system outlet, and sized properly for the plumbing
line. Check with local codes for the proper specification.
A shutoff valve (not supplied) should be installed in the
filtered water line leading from the system. The valve
should be mounted close to the system outlet and sized
properly for the plumbing line. This valve will allow for
easier servicing and future cartridge replacement.

starting the controller
1. Select the proper AC plug for your electrical outlet
and install it onto the power supply.
2. Plug the appropriate end of the power cord into
the controller.
3. Plug the other end of the power cord into the electri-
cal outlet. The leDs on the controller will light up.
4. The controller automatically enters Flush Mode
and the Flush leD starts to flash.
5. When flushing is complete, the Flush leD will
stop flashing and one or more leDs will remain lit,
indicating the unit has power and which interval is
selected in the controller.
