Essential is a water system designed to produce type II water. This water can be stored in a
reservoir, if installed.

TANK FILLING The tank is being filled with EDI or RO water. A sensor starts and stops
this mode.
FLUSH A periodic flush of the RO portion of the system is done. This refreshes
the water in this part of the system if they are not being used to produce
water.
RINSING A sensor has determined that the RO portion needs to rinse itself before
sending water to the EDI device.
SANITIZATION There are different types of sanitization that can be done. See the
maintenance section in this document for more information.
