Drill a Hole for the Reverse Osmosis Faucet Marble Counter-top We recommend contacting a qualified contractor for drilling a hole in a marble counter-top. Counter Top / Porcelain & Stainless Steel Sink Note: Most sinks are pre drilled with 1 ¼” diameter hole that you can use for your RO faucet. (If you are already using it for a sprayer or soap dispenser, see step 1) Porcelain sinks are extremely hard and can crack or chip easily. Use extreme caution when drilling.
Premier Monitored (Top Mount) Faucet Installation A) Connect tubes to the RO faucet (Figure A) A This RO faucet is equipped with quick connect fittings for easy tube installation. To connect tubes, simply push them firmly into their corresponding fitting on the RO faucet until fully seated. (4) RED (3) BLACK In the parts bag, locate one 3/8” Stem x 1/4” Quick connect fitting adapter, one 1/4” red tube, one 1/4” blue tube and one 3/8” black tube. 1.
Helpful Installation Tips for the Watts Top Mount Faucet During shipping/handling the toggle bolt on your new faucet may push up out of position. Prior to the install, hold the faucet as shown in the picture and pull down on the wing nut. This will ensure that the O-rings are in their proper position and that your faucet will have a good seal. Disassembling your faucet is never recommended as this could void your warranty.
Adapt-a-Valve Installation Caution: Water supply line to the system must be from the cold water supply line only. Hot water will severely damage your system.
Drain Saddle Installation Drain Saddle fits standard 1 ¼” – 1 ½” drain pipes Caution: If you have a garbage disposal, do not install the drain saddle near it. Installation of the drain saddle must be either above the garbage disposal, or if a second sink drain is available, install it above the cross bar on the second drain. Installation of the drain saddle near a garbage disposal may cause the drain line to plug.

Insert the open end of the tube with the 90* bend into the open 1/4” quick connect fitting on the back side of the RO-Pure Head behind the Post Filter head making sure the tube is pushed in all the way to the tube stop.
Green Tube Connection Step 15 Locate green tube attached to the RO Module. Insert the open end of the green 1/4” tube into the open 1/4” quick connect fitting on the plastic water feed valve making sure the tube is pushed in all the way to the tube stop.

The parts bag has 2 self tapping screws.
Congratulations! You have completed the installation of your new Reverse Osmosis system. Please Follow the Startup Instructions. Startup Instructions Turn on the incoming cold water at the angle stop valve and the Step 1 Adapt-a-Valve. Check the system for leaks and tighten any fittings as necessary. (Check frequently over the next 24 hours to ensure no leaks are present).
Changing The Filter Cartridges Your RO module is equipped with valve heads which will automatically turn off the water supply to each filter when the filter is released, thus you do not need to turn off the incoming water supply at the Adapta-Valve. The RO faucet must be off when filters are replaced. To make the removal of the filter cartridges easier, the heads & cartridges may be swiveled up to 90 degrees as shown in the pictures below.
Annual Sanitization NOTICE Do not change your post-carbon filter until the sanitization has been completed. The pre-filters and membrane can be changed before the sanitization Step 1: Turn off the water supply to your RO system at the adapt-avalve and open the RO faucet to drain the storage tank. NOTICE DOSING SYRINGE WITH NO NEEDLE If you have connected your RO system to a refrigerator/ ice maker, make sure the connection has been turned off.
Check Air Pressure in the Tank NOTICE Check air pressure only when tank is empty of water! Check air pressure in the storage tank when you notice a decrease in available water from the RO system. Air can be added with a bicycle pump using the schrader valve that is located on the lower side of the tank behind the blue plastic cap. Step 1: Turn off the incoming water supply to the RO. Step 2: Open the RO Faucet and allow water to drain from the tank until it is completely empty.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Problem Cause Solution 1. Low/Slow Production Low Water Pressure Crimps in tubing Clogged pre-filters Fouled membrane Assure a minimum of 40 psi incoming water pressure. Premier sells a booster pump if home water pressure is low. Make sure water supply is turned on and feed water valve is all the way open. Check tubing and straighten or replace as necessary. Replace pre-filters. Replace membrane. 2.

Arsenic Fact Sheet Arsenic (As) is a naturally occurring contaminant found in many ground waters. Arsenic in water has no color, taste or odor. It must be measured by an arsenic test kit or lab test. Public water utilities must have their water tested for arsenic. You can obtain the results from your water utility contained within your consumer confidence report. If you have your own well, you will need to have the water evaluated.
