Installing an RO to Service Other Water Using Appliances

Pressure, Pressure, Pressure

If you are installing a service line from an RO storage tank to an appliance with a minimum pressure requirement
then you may need to consider the following options so as not to operate below the operating limits of that
appliance.

installation of a booster pump (92325)

Placing this pump before the RO will increases overall pressure to the system. If you boost the water pressure from 40
to 80, then the full pressure in the storage tank will be around 53 psi. Increasing the overall pressure in the system will
allow more volume to be drawn from the tank before the pressure dips below a shutoff value.

aDDitioNaL PoiNt oF use CoNNeCtioN (Fittings and tubing for additional point of use connection is not supplied with this system)

Note: Icemakers typically use 1/4” tubing as feed line.

Note: Reduce the 3/8” Line to 1/4” as close as possible to the additional point-of use device to minimize flow loss.

1. To connect an additional point of use (icemaker, extra faucet in wet bar and/or another use for treated water), place a “tee” con-

nector (P/N PP30121208W) in 3/8” blue line between faucet and RO Module.

2. Connect “tee” to point-of-use with 1/4” tubing (P/N 92600). Connect tubing to point-of-use. If point of use connection requires 3/8"

fitting, use of 3/8" Tee (Part # 92403) and 3/8" tubing (Part # 87600)
