INTRODUCTION This manual explains the installation, operation and maintenance of the Water Factory Systems ® SQC Series Reverse Osmosis (RO) Drinking Water Appliances. Please read each section of this manual care - fully. The specific model chosen should be appropriate for the local water conditions and the customer's needs.
A. DETERMINE THE APPLIANCE LOCATION The appliance can be located under a sink or in a basement depending on space availability and the customer's preference. If a basement installation is selected, additional tubing, hardware and fittings may be needed and a hole will have to be made from inside the cabinet, through the floor, to the basement.
C. PREPARE THE APPLIANCE FOR INSTALLATION Open the shipping carton and remove the components. Check to see that all of the installation parts are present. They should include the purification assembly, storage tank, faucet, installation hardware, RO membrane cartridge and tubing.
E. MOUNT THE FAUCET Undercounter installations generally require that the faucet's built-in air gap be used. In basement installations, the built-in air gap does not have to be used if one is provided elsewhere on the drain line. For Basement Installations Without An Air Gap Module See Installation Instructions O.
F . INSTALL THE FEED WATER TAPPING VALVE AND TUBING The feed water tapping valve which is supplied, is designed to be used on 3/8" to 1/2" OD soft copper tubing (plain or chromed) and rigid metal pipe. Do not use it on flexi - ble ribbed tubing, because it has too thin a wall thickness and it requires special hardware.
5) Turn the feedwater tapping valve handle clockwise to close the valve. With a wrench, tighten the nut/seal around the valve handle stem. 6) Remove the cover from the appliance and disconnect the orange 1/4" tubing from the feedwater fitting. (See Fig.
I. INSTALL THE PURIFICATION ASSEMBLY AND STORAGE TANK For Basement Installation See Installation Instructions O. Undercounter Installation: The purification assembly is usually mounted to the right or the left side wall inside of the sink cabinet, taking into consider - ation the space available and the tank location.
L. START UP THE APPLIANCE 1) Double check to see that all of the connections are secure. 2) Open the feedwater tapping valve and check the appliance for leaks. If any leaks are detected, close the valve and correct the problem before proceeding. NOTE: If a leak occurs at a "Push In" plastic fitting, then refer to Fig.
O. APPENDIX FOR BASEMENT INSTALLATIONS The following variations are generally required for basement installations: INSTALL THE DRAIN CONNECTION For basement installations, the drain saddle is generally not used.

A. IMPORTANT WATER QUALITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS Reverse Osmosis drinking water appliances contain treat - ment components that are critical for the effective reduction of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) as well as inorganic chemical contaminants.
C. REPLACING THE RO MEMBRANE CARTRIDGE The life of the RO membrane cartridge depends on the local water conditions and proper maintenance, e.g., regular fil - ter changes.
4) Fill the sanitizing device with the following recommended dosage of common household bleach: • A standard 2.5 gallon tank - 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) • Alternate size tanks - 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) per 2.5 gallons of tank capacity 5) Open the feedwater tapping valve to force water and sanitizer into the storage tank.
