6 Month System Maintenance (continued):
NOTE: Use the Filter wrench supplied with RO system.
1. Turn off the incoming water supply to the RO by turning the Inlet Valve clockwise until it
stops.
2. Close the Ball Valve of the storage tank.
3. Open the RO faucet and allow water to drain to release system pressure.
NOTE: Water may be saved in a container for drinking or to rinse system parts.
4. For more leverage you may leave the RO unit attached to the wall of the cabinet. If you
are unable to access the unit while it is mounted, move it prior to changing filters.
Starting with the filter housing stage 1, remove it by turning it clockwise (left), empty
water, then discard filter. Continue on the 2nd housing (Stage 2).
5. Clean the filter housings bowls with a mild soap solution and rinse with water. Check the
O-ring and lubricate with water only. Do not use petroleum based lubricants such as
Vaseline.
NOTE: Before re-installing the filter bowls back on the system, check O-rings to make sure they still are
in place.
