Please keep this owner’s manual for future reference. It includes the information on how to properly operate and maintain the system.
Thank you for choosing the PureDrop Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System. It was built from quality components against NSF/ANSI STANDARD 58 for performance and material safety. Before Installation Inspect the package Please open the box, and take all the components and tool kit out. Inspect them to ensure that nothing was damaged during shipping. If any part is cracked or broken, please immediately contact PureDrop Customer Support for replacement. Identify and get familiar with the components.

Installation Tips How to use QuickConnect fitting To connect: 1. Check and cut the tubing end squarely and cleanly with utility knife or scissors. 2. Make a mark ½ inch from the end of tubing, this mark will help guide the tubing installation. 3. Fully insert the tubing until the mark is about to disappear. This ensures that it is sealed by the Oring near the bottom. To disconnect: 1. Remove the blue Lock Clip. 2.
How to use Compression fitting with brass Nut, Collar, and tube Insert Compression fittings are used to connect the PVC tubing to the threaded metal inlet with a tapered open end, such as the refrigerator water inlet, drinking faucet water inlet, etc. 1. 2. 3. 4. Slide the Nut and Collar onto the end of tubing Fully insert the Insert into the open end of tubing Slide the Collar to be close to Insert and fit into the tapered open end of the thread metal inlet. Screw on the Nut and tight it up.
Sample Installation A. Source water from Feed Water Adapter → B. Source water to water inlet next to 1st stage C. Waste water from Flow Restrictor → D. Waste water to Drain Saddle E. RO water from Automatic Shutoff Valve → F. RO water to Storage Tank G. RO water from 5th stage→ H. RO water to Drinking Faucet An Ice Maker Kit (Part# PureDrop ICEK ) can be purchased separately to feed RO water to refrigerator and get crystal clear ice cubes and great tasting water at ease.
Installation Steps Note: Steps 1 – 7 are independent, and can be performed in any order. Step 1: Install Feed Water Adapter (AFW) 1.1 Turn off the Cold Water Line via the Cold Water Shutoff Valve (CWSV) under the sink. Open the kitchen faucet to release pressure and make sure water has stopped before proceeding to the next step. Get a towel or bucket to catch water spill. Disconnect Kitchen Faucet Connector (KFC) pipe from CWSV. 1.2 Check Oring inside AFW female end, and twist it onto CWSV.
Step 3: Install Drain Saddle 3.1 Choose a spot on the drain pipe that is convenient for installing the drain saddle and tubing. It is reccomended that you install the pipe horizontally to minimize dripping sounds. 3.2 Drill a 1 /4” hole on the drain pipe; paste the black sticky pad around the hole. 3.3 Cut the BLACK tubing end a bit to make a 45 degree angle. Slip the plastic nut and front plate on the tubing.
5.2 Screw (clockwise) the Tank Shutoff Valve on and tighten up by hand. Do not over tighten. 5.3 Connect the YELLOW tubing onto the QuickFitting of TSV. Step 6: Install Reverse Osmosis Membrane 6.1 Open the membrane housing screw cap. First, you will need to disconnect the white 1 / 4” tubing from the Inlet quickfitting on the membrane housing cap ( refer to How to Use QuickFitting section ), and then unscrew (counterclockwise) the cap.
7.2 Facing the font of the unit, with the brand logo, the 1st stage prefilter is located on the right hand side. Connect the RED tubing Feed Water Adapter (AFW) (point A) to the elbow fitting (point B). 7.3 Connect the Flow Restrictor (point C) , which is a 3inch long cylinder with a FLOW sign laying beside the membrane housing, to the Drain Saddle (point D) with the BLACK tubing. th 7.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed your PureDrop RO system. PUREDROP RO SYSTEM MAINTENANCE This RO system is designed with ease of use and low maintenance in mind. If you change the filter cartridges as suggested below, and check TDS level periodically, the system will work properly for many years. Stages 1 – 3 prefilters: Replace every 6 – 12 months, or sooner if water flow gets slow. The frequency depends on the source water quality and water usage.
3. Twist off the filter housing in a counterclockwise direction when looking from the bottom. Use a housing wrench (the bigger one) if necessary. 4. Refer to Installation Step 1.1 to install a new vertical filter cartridges and twist the housings back on. Remember not to over tighten or it will be hard to open next time. Stage 4 RO membrane: Replace every 2 – 3 years or sooner if TDS level starts increasing. Check the TDS level at least once a month to monitor the system performance.

OWNER’S MANUAL Please read this manual for useful reverse osmosis system and maintenance information. Section 1: Knowledge Base What Is Reverse Osmosis? Reverse osmosis, also known as hyper filtration, is a membrane filtration process that separates undesirable materials from water by using pressure to force the water molecules through a semipermeable membrane.
Note : You may or may not have these contaminants in your water. The percentage rejection rate is for reference only. Percentages may vary since water chemistry varies in each water supply. Does Reverse Osmosis remove pharmaceuticals from water? Yes, the 5stage RO with carbon pre filters can remove most of pharmaceuticals from water. An activated carbon filter gives these contaminants a charge so they are absorbed and removed. Will a reverse osmosis water system taste as good as the water I pay $5.
Section 2: Troubleshooting Guide Leaking around filter housing (Oring too small or not in place) First of all, please check if all filter cartridges are sitting upright inside the canister. Then, check if Oring is properly in place. The orings may be a little too small, please stretch it out and put it back inside the groove. You may overstretch a little so when it is back to the canister, it will shrink and fit just right. Then insert the cartridge to the top cap, screw the canister all the way up.
Tastes and Odors in Product Water Possible Cause Carbon Post Filter is exhausted. There is foreign matter in Holding Tank. Product water and Drain water lines are reversed. Dissolved gases in feed water. Increase in Product Water TDS. Solution Replace Filter. Clean, flush and sanitize the Holding Tank. Replace filters. Correct plumbing. Pretreat feed water to remove gasses. See High TDS in Product Water Section Faucet Leaks or Drips Possible Cause Solution Water leaks from faucet spout.
