THERE ARE TWO PARTS TO INSTALLING THE RO SYSTEM:
Part I. Assemble the filters and housings onto the main system
Part II. Installing the system
Note: The RO Membrane Element has already been pre-installed.
PART I. ASSEMBLE THE FILTERS AND HOUSINGS ONTO THE MAIN SYSTEM
Remove plastic/paper wrappings on the 3 filters, put them into the 3 housings, and assemble the
housings onto the main system as follow:
1. See
Fig. 2 Stand the 3 housings upright. Make sure each housing has a rubber O-ring in its
groove.
Put the APEC Sediment filter (1-SED10) into the “1
st
stage” housing on the right.
Put the APEC Carbon filter (23-CAB10) into the “2
nd
stage” housing in the middle.
Put the APEC Carbon filter (23-CAB10) into the “3
rd
stage” housing on the left.
2. See Fig. 3 Starting from the 3
rd
stage housing on the left, hand twist the housing onto the main
system turning counterclockwise, one by one, for all 3 housings.
3. See
Fig. 4 Use the wrench provided to completely tighten the housing starting from 1st-stage.
Repeat this step for the 2
nd
stage housing in the middle, and for the 3
rd
stage housing
on left.
Note: For some people it is easier to use the wrench with the system laid down
(face up).
