INSTALLATION
STEP 1: INSTALLING THE FAUCET
1) Determine the desired location for your RO faucet on your sink surface. There maybe an existing
hole in the back area of the sink for use with a sprayer or soap dispenser. This hole can be used for
the RO faucet. (skip to step #6).
2) Place a piece of masking tape or duct tape on the determined location where hole is to be drilled.
3) Use a variable speed drill at slow speed with a 1/8" (3 mm) drill and drill a centering hole in the
center of the desired faucet location. Use lubricating oil to keep the drill bit cool while drilling.
4) Enlarge the hole using a 1/4" (6.4 mm) drill bit. Use factory approved method or approved
plumbing practice to drill hole in sink.
5) Enlarge the hole to 1-1/4" diameter. Keep bit well oiled and drill slowly.
6) Slide the large chrome escutcheon base plate and the matching large rubber washer, in that order,
over the faucet stud at the bottom of the faucet.
7) Firmly push the provided black 3/8” tube over the large barb fitting on the bottom of the faucet.
The tubing may not push all the way to the end of the connection, but must be installed securely
over the barbed portion of the fitting to prevent leaks. Leave the full length of tubing attached at
this time as it will be trimmed in a subsequent step.
8) Feed the black 1/4” tubing attached to the membrane housing through the hole in the sink. Trim
this tubing so there is only 12” more than needed to make a comfortable installation. Firmly push
the black 1/4” tube over the small barb fitting on the bottom of the faucet. The tubing may not push
all the way to the end of the connection, but must be installed securely over the barbed portion of
the fitting to prevent leaks.
