Step 7 - Sanitize, Test and Purge System
SANITIZE THE SYSTEM
Sanitizing is recommended immediately after installa-
tion of the Reverse Osmosis system. It’s also recom-
mended after servicing inner parts. It is important that
the person installing or servicing the system have
clean hands while handling inner parts of the system.
Complete the following steps to sanitize the system.
See Fig. 23.
1. Turn off the water supply to the Reverse Osmosis
system.
2. Open the Reverse Osmosis faucet. If the tank is not
already empty, allow the water to empty.
3. Locate an eyedropper included in package and
common household bleach (5.25%).
4. Add 3 ml. of bleach into open end of yellow tank
tubing. Handle bleach according to bleach manufac-
turer’s recommendations. See Fig. 23.
5. Connect yellow tank tubing to tank connector. See
Fig. 12 and 23.
6. Sanitizing the system will be completed during the
pressure test and purging steps on the following
page.
Note: The bleach must be removed from the
system before drinking the water. See purging
instructions on the next page.
