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. With two fingers the Lock Sleeve to eliminate the
Gap that the blue Lock Clip occupied, pull the tubing out. (Pressing down the Lock Sleeve releases the springloaded steel teeth that grab the tubing inside the fitting body).

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. Slide the Nut and Collar onto the end of tubing
2. Fully insert the Insert into the open end of tubing
3. Slide the Collar to be close to Insert and fit into the tapered open end of the thread metal inlet.
4. Screw on the Nut and tight it up. The Nut compresses the plastic Collar onto the tapered metal surface and creates a water seal between them while the Insert hardens the tubing.
How to drill a hole into a sink or countertop
1. It’s highly recommended to watch the ”.
2. Choose a half inch Diamond Core Bit for granite or a titanium drill bit for steel. Do NOT use a hammer drill on nature stone, glass, and ceramic.
3. An indent should be made with a punch on steel before drilling to help guide the bit.
4. Use caution when drilling on a Porcelain sink, as it could be easily chipped. Set drill speed on slow. Press the bit downward firmly until breaking through the slippery surface.
5. Use coolant to disperse heat. Choose water for granite, and oil for steel. Use the Water Suction
Cup to hold coolant inside and prevent the drill bit from slipping.
6. Starting at slowest speed, hold the drill firmly and vertically and prevent the drill bit from slipping on the counter.
7. Once breaking through the smooth surface, swirl the drill a little to apply pressure in a circle evenly.
8. Be patient and deliberate. It can take 20 – 40 minutes to drill through one inch.

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. Tighten it up using wrench or pliers.
1.3 Twist KFC onto the male end of AFW. Turn the handle of AFW to cross
(OFF) position. Turn on CWSV slowly, check and fix any leaks.
1.4 Connect the 1/4” tubing to AFW.
Step 2: Install Drinking Water Faucet
2.1 If your kitchen sink does not have an existing ½” hole, you will have to drill one. (Refer to
Countertop
2.2 Slip the front plate on the faucet stem, followed by the rubber washer. Insert the faucet stem into the hole on countertop
2.3 Under the sink, slip on the back rubber washer, tighten the nut with plastic wing.
2.4 Screw the tubing adapter on to the faucet stem. Insert the tubing 1/2 inch deep into the Pushin fitting.
Page 7 |
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 tubing end a bit to make a 45 degree angle. Slip the plastic nut and front plate on the tubing. Insert the tubing into the 1 / 4” hole on the drain pipe, install the back plate and tighten the two screws with hex nuts while the tubing remains in the hole.
3.4 Tighten the nut securing the black drain line to the Drain Saddle by hand. Pull the tubing to check if it is secure.
Step 4: Install the Vertical Filters: Stages 1, 2, and 3
4.1 Make sure that the Oring is seated inside the groove on the top of the filter housing. Foodgrade silicon jelly may be used to help the Oring stay in place and seal better.
4.2 Note the direction sign on the sticker before removing the shrink wrap (GAC at 2 stage).
4.3 Rinse the GAC and CTO cartridges with tap water for
5 minutes or until it is clear
4.4 When placing the filter cartridge into its housing, make sure it is centered and the knob protruding from the bottom of the housing fits in the central hole of the filter.
4.5 Screw the housing, with filters inserted, onto the housing caps (caps are preassembled on the machine head). The cap also has a center knob which should be inserted into the center hole of the filter cartridge. Twist the housing on in a direction by hand, and then use a housing wrench to tighten it up for about 1/4 – 1/2 turn. make it difficult to unscrew the housing when replacing filters.
4.6 Follow the steps 1.1 – 1.4 to install the GAC and CTO filters. *Note* the second stage GAC is the only filter that must go in a certain direction. Make sure that the end with the rubber washer faces up, thereby attaching to the housing cap.
Step 5: Install Tank Shutoff Valve (TSV)
5.1 Wrap 10 15 turns of Teflon tape clockwise (looking from top) onto the metal thread at the top of the tank.
Page 8 |
5.2 Screw (clockwise) the Tank Shutoff Valve on and tighten up by hand. Do not over tighten.
5.3 Connect the
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
A thick rubber band can be slipped on the housing body for a stronger hand hold.
6.2 The RO membrane is preserved in a sealed bag with distilled water. Remove the black caps from both ends of membrane. Follow the flow direction sign on the membrane, and firmly insert the membrane into the housing. The smaller end with two black Orings should be
inserted first until the back end is even with the housing opening.
6.3 Before twisting the housing cap back on, check that the membrane housing (cap does NOT have Oring) housing wrench tighten 1 /4 – 1 /2 turns, being careful not over tighten. DO NOT reconnect the tubing to inlet on cap at this point (This connection is made in system start up step).
Step 7: Tubing Hook up
7.1 See the and
and
Page 9 |
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 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
7.4 On the right side of the Post Carbon Filter (FT15 5 and the Tank Valve (point F) with the
BLACK
stage), connect the Teefitting (point E)
tubing. The tank is prepressured at 710 psi and has a air valve on the side for refill with a bike air pump if needed.
7.5 At left end of FT15, insert the tubing (links to RO faucet) into the elbow fitting.
7.6 Connect the other end of the fitting
7.7 You may organize the tubing, but make sure to leave enough length so the filter system can be moved freely in and out of the cabinet when replacing filters.
7.8 You may hang the system using two 10 x 11/4 Phillips Flat Wood Screws.
This will prevent tipping and make replacing filter cartridges easier.
Step 8: System Start Up
8.1 Make sure that all tubings are not kinked. Prepare a bath towel to catch any water leak.
8.2 To avoid the residual carbon dust in the first three stages from getting into the RO membrane, the tubing to the inlet of the RO membrane housing cap was left disconnected. Flush the first three stages into a bucket until the water turns clear, and reconnect the tubing to the RO membrane. (You may do this whenever you change the first three stages).
8.3 Turn on (inline) Feed Water Adapter valve (AFW), and then slowly turn on the Cold Water
Supply Valve (CWSV) and . The top 3 causes of leaks are 1) the tubing was not fully inserted into the quickconnect fitting for about half inch deep. 2) the Oring was not in place or kinked. 3) the Housing/Cap was not tightened up or off threads.
8.4 Within 5 minutes, RO water should start dripping. Let it run for at least 10 minutes. This flushes the system except the tank. Water is black due to loose carbon from new carbon filters
(step 8.2 could be taken to expedite the flush). It will turn clear with some air bubble.
8.5 Shut off the RO Drinking Faucet. Turn on the Tank Shutoff Valve. Wait for the tank to be filled up. It may take 1.5 hours in warm summer or 3 hours in cold winter to fill up a 3.2 gallon tank with about 2.5 gallons holding capacity.
8.6 After two hours, turn on the RO Drinking Faucet to flush out all the water in the tank. DO NOT use the first tank of water. The water out of the faucet should be a much stronger stream since the water pressure was built up to 3540 psi when being filled up. When the water flow changes back to a trickle, it means the tank is empty.
8.7 The reverse osmosis membrane is the key part for the effective reduction of total dissolved solids (TDS) and that product water shall be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing properly. If the TDS of the source water is 100ppm, the RO water should be less than 10ppm (Rejection rate >90%).
8.8 Check for leaks daily for the first two weeks after installation. Furthermore, a pan or tray can be put under the system in case of any leaks, and a Flood Alarm can be used together for better protection.

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. They could last longer in city water, and shorter in well water. Different areas have good or bad water. Some customers reported they had to replace the 1st stage every 13 months when they saw through the clear housing where heavy sediments and particles turned the white cartridge into dark brown. Some customers reported they could replace them every 12 months. To protect the RO membrane in the 4th stage, it is to replace the prefilters
How to change inhousing cartridges in 1st – 3rd prefilter stages
1. Shut off the water supply valve and tank valve, open the faucet to depressurize. Place a bucket or towel under the unit to catch water spills.
2. If there is enough room under the sink and filter system is hung on wall, it could be easier to twist the filter housing off without taking the unit off the wall. Otherwise, it could be easier to pull the system out, lay it down and work towards the housing bottom. Please be careful with tubing connections when pulling the system out.
Page 11 |
3. Twist off the filter housing in a counterclockwise direction when looking from the bottom.
4.
Use a housing wrench (the bigger one) if necessary.
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. The rejection rate should be above 90% (NSF/ASIN STANDARD 58 for RO water filter).
How to change reverse osmosis membrane
1. Reverse osmosis membrane usually last about 2 – 3 years, depending on the source water quality and the replacement schedule of the three prefilters.
2. To ensure system performance and water purity, filter cartridges must be replaced on schedule.
Use the TDS meter periodically to check water purity
3. Shut off the water supply valve and tank valve, open the faucet to depressurize
4. Place a bucket or towel under the unit to catch water spills.
5. Remove the tubing from the inlet fitting on the membrane housing cap. Use a housing wrench
or by hand to twist off the housing cap in a counterclockwise direction looking from inlet.
6. Pull out the old membrane. Use scissors or pliers to apply leverage if necessary.
7. Clean the housing using hot water and optional scentfree dish soap. Rinse thoroughly. Cut open the small end of the sealed bag of a new RO membrane, hold the new membrane with the bag, and insert it into housing without touching the membane with your bare hand, which may contaminate it.
8.
9.
Check the Oring on the open end of the membrane housing. It is recommended to replace it every 3 years to prevent leaks.
Twist the membrane housing cap back on by hand. Use a wrench for a final ¼ turn if necessary.
DO NOT over tighten.
Stage 5 FT15 fine carbon: Replace every 12 months
Unscrew the elbow fittings on both ends, put them on the new cartridge, and use new Teflon if necessary.
Orings: Replace every 3 years or sooner if leak happens at Oring.
The package comes with 3 spare Orings for the prefilter housing, and 1 spare Oring for the membrane housing.

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. This process is called "reverse" osmosis because the pressure forces the water to flow in the reverse direction (from the concentrated solution to the dilute solution) to the flow direction (from the dilute to the concentrated) in the process of natural osmosis. Reverse osmosis is used to purify water and remove salts and other impurities in order to improve the color, taste, odor and/or properties of your water. R/O filtration can remove up to 99% of most contaminants including arsenic, nitrates, radium, chromium, fluoride, and dissolved solids such as sodium, calcium, iron, magnesium, copper, etc.
How Effective Is Reverse Osmosis Filtration?
Reverse osmosis filtration is by far the most effective and economic method of water filtration. It filters water by squeezing water through a semipermeable membrane, which is rated at 0.0001 micron
(equal to 0.00000004 inch). This is the same technology used to make bottled drinking water. It is also the most used technology for desalinating seawater, making it into drinking water.
What are the specific contaminants that a reverse osmosis system removes?

Note 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 $5.00 a
bottle for?
Yes! Sometimes better, depending how well the bottled water company is maintaining their purification equipment. Reverse Osmosis is the same process used by most major bottled water companies. Even some companies that use "spring water" still use Reverse Osmosis to insure purity.
I have heard that reverse osmosis wastes a lot of water!
It wastes a little but not a lot. On the average, these systems will use less than 2% of your home's total water consumption. In addition, all Our Reverse Osmosis Systems use automatic shut off valves. The drain will stop when the tank is full. The ratio of drain water to RO water is 2:1 – 3:1 for all of our RO systems. For a regular residential household, the waste water per day is about 3 more flushes of toilet, which is not too bad.
What is a TDS meter?
A TDS meter is a Handheld Total Dissolved Solids Tester. Total Dissolved Solids are the total weight of all solids that are dissolved in a given volume of water, expressed in units of mg per unit volume of water (mg/L), also referred to as parts per million (PPM). With a TDS meter, you can easily compare the quality of RO water with your original source water.
Maximum distance from tank to faucet
A maximum distance from tank to faucet of 15 feet is possible. The system will produce a faster flow at the faucet with the shortest tubing run from tank to faucet.
Page 15 |
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. MAKE SURE
ORINGS are staying in place during this process. Then use a wrench to tighten (no need to over tighten it).
Little water out of faucet, tank is heavy and appears full of water, but the
stream turns very weak after a few seconds
If there is no change in the supply water pressure, the problem is very likely from the tank. It could be due to low tank pressure or broken bladder. Perform the following steps first?
● Shut off main water supply
●
●
●
●
Get a bucket under the tank and remove tank by disconnecting the ball valve.
Dump the water from the tank by turning it upside down (through the top stem). You may add air from the front valve to help emptying the water.
Use a gauge at the front air valve to check tank pressure. It should be within 710 PSI. If too low, you can use a bicycle pump to add more pressure to the tank.
Reconnect tank to the system and turn on the water supply.
Continuous drain
All RO systems create drain water. The drain water should run only when the system is making water.
The ratio of drain water to RO water is about 0.83:1 for our RO systems (Pumped, SideFlow systems have lower ratio). For a regular residential household, the waste water per day is about 3 more flushes of toilet, which is not too bad. The drain should stop after the tank is full. Allow 3 hours for the tank to fill up. If the drain is still running, the problem might be caused by the following reasons?
● Faulty automatic shutoff valve (ASV, the white square valve that connects to 4 tubings),
●
●
●
Faulty check valve (at the pure water outlet of the membrane housing),
Faulty flow restrictor (the small tube that marks "flow 300" and connects to the drain line).
Low tank pressure.
High TDS level in RO water
The RO system should produce a TDS rejection rate of about 8595%. Check the following first?
● What is tap water TDS reading? Is there a sudden increase in tap water TDS level.
●
●
Has the RO membrane been installed? It is packed in a vacuum plastic bag and in blue color, located in the accessory box.
Possibility of reverse drain line and pure water line. Compare your tubing connection to the diagram on the manual and check.
Page 16 |
Tastes and Odors in Product Water
Possible Cause
Carbon Post Filter is exhausted. Replace Filter.
Solution
There is foreign matter in Holding Tank. Clean, flush and sanitize the Holding Tank. Replace filters.
Product water and Drain water lines are reversed. Correct plumbing.
Dissolved gases in feed water. Pretreat feed water to remove gasses.
Increase in Product Water TDS. See High TDS in Product Water Section
Faucet Leaks or Drips
Possible Cause Solution Water leaks from faucet spout. Adjust faucet by turning the tee bar located under the handle to provide a small amount of free play in the handle when shut off. Should this not work, repair or replace the faucet. Leaks from beneath the handle. Repair or replace the faucet.
What is an ASOV and what does it do?
ASOV is automatic shutoff valve. This valve allows your system to turn off the water supply, using pressure from the pure water side of the system. It will turn off the water supply to the unit, whenever there is sufficient pressure on the pure water side of your system. ASOV is a must. It saves water, extends filter life, and improves the performance of your unit. As the storage tank fills the pressure inside increases, when the pressure equals ½ to 2/3 your feed water pressure, the water to the system is shut off. No waste. Since you subtract the storage pressure from the operating pressure, the storage pressure needs be limited.
Cloudy ice cubes or milky colored water
Bad membrane Use TDS Meter to check membrane. Replace membrane and sanitize when below 75% rejection. Water supply High oxygen content. Tiny frozen bubbles. System is still new. This is normal and should clear up in two weeks.
After installation, the water out of the RO faucet is only a trickle. Is this normal?
Reverse osmosis is a very slow process. Water flow is only continual drop if bypassing the tank. With the prepressured tank, the water out of the faucet will be about 710PSI (tank's pressure), which is pretty strong flow. It takes about 23 hours to get the tank filled up, then the system will shut off automatically and drain stops running.
Sudden drop in RO water production: There are a few potential factors causing the problem?
● Feed water valve is plugged or closed.
Sediment/Carbon prefilter or Carbon Post
Filter is clogged.
● Low incoming water pressure.
● Reverse Osmosis Membrane is fouled.
● Air pressure in holding tank is incorrect.
● Air Bladder in Holding Tank is ruptured.
● Holding Tank valve is closed.
● No water to drain. Drain Flow Restrictor is clogged.
● Check Valve on RO Membrane Housing is stuck.
● The Automatic ShutOff Valve is
Malfunctioning.
