The iSpring RO800 Series 800 GPD Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System is an under-sink water purification unit designed to provide high-quality drinking water for residential use. This system employs a multi-stage filtration process, including a PPC composite filter and an 800 GPD reverse osmosis membrane, to effectively remove a wide range of impurities from tap water.
The primary function of the iSpring RO800 system is to purify municipal water, transforming it into clean, healthy, and great-tasting drinking water. The filtration process begins with a First Stage PPC composite filter. This filter is engineered to tackle common contaminants such as dirt, sand, silt, rust, and scale particles. Beyond physical particulates, it also targets chemical impurities like THMs (trihalomethanes), VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and pesticides. Additionally, it is highly effective at removing unpleasant chlorine tastes and odors, as well as reducing cloudiness and discoloration in the water.
Following the initial purification, the water proceeds to the Second Stage, which features an 800 GPD (gallons per day) reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. This advanced membrane is capable of rejecting a broad spectrum of impurities down to an incredibly fine size of 0.0001 micron. This includes heavy metals and many organic matters, ensuring a high level of purity. The reverse osmosis process works by forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane, leaving contaminants behind and producing purified water. The system is designed to be installed under the sink, providing a convenient and discreet source of filtered water directly from a dedicated faucet.
The iSpring RO800 system offers several user-friendly features that enhance its convenience and performance. One of its standout characteristics is the "instant treated water accessibility," meaning there's no need for a storage tank, and purified water is available on demand with a flow rate of up to 0.6 gallons per minute. This eliminates the waiting time often associated with traditional RO systems. The system boasts a high rejection rate of up to 95%, ensuring that a significant majority of impurities are removed from the water.
Filter replacement is designed to be quick and hassle-free, featuring "easy twist off filters" that can be changed in seconds without the need to shut off the main water supply. This simplifies routine maintenance and encourages timely filter changes. The system also incorporates a "plug and play" design, which includes automatic pre-flush functionality. This pre-flush helps to condition the filters and membrane, optimizing their performance and longevity.
A key convenience feature is the "filter life reminder," which is integrated into both the system unit and the dedicated faucet. This reminder system helps users keep track of when filters need to be replaced, ensuring continuous optimal performance. The display and operating area, located on the lower front side of the system, provides visual cues through three indicating lights and allows for interaction via two buttons. The "On" light, for instance, flashes white when the system is actively running and dispensing filtered water, and remains steadily lit when the system is in standby mode.
The system also includes a manual flush function. By pressing the "select/flush" button for 5 seconds, users can initiate a 30-second flush process, during which a red light will flash. This is particularly useful after replacing the PPC filter to rinse the system. The filter life indicators, which are initially white, begin to blink white when a filter's life drops below 10% and turn red when a filter needs immediate replacement. This clear visual feedback helps users maintain the system effectively.
For installation, the system requires a flat surface away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures, with an incoming water pressure of at least 30 psi. The installation process involves connecting the feed water adapter to the cold-water supply, installing the dedicated faucet (which may require drilling a 1-inch hole in the countertop), and connecting the system with its power cable and various PE water tubings (white for inlet, blue for drinking faucet, and red for drain). Clear diagrams and instructions are provided to guide users through these connections, emphasizing the importance of secure fittings and proper tubing insertion.
Routine maintenance of the iSpring RO800 system primarily revolves around timely filter replacement and system checks. The system's "filter life reminder" is a crucial maintenance feature, alerting users when the PPC composite filter and RO membrane filter are nearing the end of their lifespan. The PPC composite filter typically requires replacement every 6-12 months, while the RO membrane filter has a longer lifespan of 24-36 months. It is important to note that actual replacement cycles can vary based on source water quality, family size, and usage frequency. Adhering to these replacement schedules is vital, as failure to replace filters on time can void the product warranty and potentially lead to system damage or leaks.
When it's time to replace a filter, the process is streamlined. Users must first shut off the water supply and turn on the faucet to drain any remaining water from the system. The power adapter should then be unplugged. Filters are released by pressing a button on the filter itself, allowing for easy removal. After inserting a new filter and ensuring it's locked in place, the filter life indicator needs to be reset. This is done by pressing and holding the "reset" button for 3 seconds. The system will then enter reset mode, and users can select the specific filter indicator light (PPC or RO) to reset by short-pressing the "select/flush" button.
The system is equipped with a built-in leak stop device designed to prevent internal leaks and minimize the risk of water damage. However, users are still advised to regularly check external fittings and connections to ensure all components are secure and operating properly. In the event of a malfunction, the manual provides a troubleshooting guide, offering possible issues and solutions. For example, if there's no water output, users are advised to check if the water inlet valve is on, if the filter is correctly installed, and if the system is connected to power. For issues like low water output, checks include inspecting for twisted or bent connection pipes, ensuring the inlet valve is fully open, and noting that low temperatures can naturally decrease purified water output. If a filter exceeds its service life, replacement is the recommended solution. For persistent problems or leaks, users are instructed to shut off the water supply and power, then contact iSpring customer service for professional assistance. Unauthorized modification or disassembly of the system is strictly prohibited and will void the warranty, underscoring the importance of following manufacturer guidelines for all maintenance and repairs.
