DFT8 Reverse Osmosis Filter
General Information
Installation Guidelines
This Reverse Osmosis (RO) system is engineered for easy
installation by someone with basic DIY and plumbing skills. It
should be connected to the home's primary water supply.
Water Pressure and Temperature:
Ensure your water supply maintains a pressure between 1 to 4
bars, with a temperature range of 5ºC to 45ºC.
If the pressure falls below 1 bar or rises above 4 bars, install a
booster pump or pressure-reducing valve between the main
water supply and the RO unit.
Installation Location:
Do not install the RO unit outdoors if the temperature exceeds
the specified range or if the area receives direct sunlight.
A suitable installation spot is a cupboard beneath a sink, often
close to the main water inlet valve. If the water supply is not
nearby, additional plumbing will be necessary.
Chemical Storage:
Avoid storing harsh chemicals like strong acids or alkalis near the RO unit to prevent potential
damage.
Filter Accessibility:
Position the RO unit to allow horizontal removal of the filters. If space is limited, you may need to
tilt the unit or slide it forward for easier access.
Flow Rate:
It's normal for the flow rate of filtered water to decrease with lower water pressure or
temperature.
Important Notes:
This unit is designed for domestic mains water supply only. If the water supply contains higher
levels of raw water, install a pre-filter between the shut-off valve and the unit to prolong the RO
system’s lifespan.
Do not obstruct the drainpipe or install any valves, as this will hinder efficient wastewater
drainage.
