VistaPure is designed to produce two grades of high-purity water: distilled-quality water for use in
autoclaves, and non-corrosive, low-TDS water for filling dental bottles, ultrasonic cleaners and for final
rinse cycles in instrument washers� Water used in autoclaves must be virtually free of dissolved solids
in order to protect the heating chamber and to prevent buildup of contaminants that can create hard
deposits and necessitate more frequent cleanings� Water used in self-contained dental bottle systems
should be of a high quality, but not distilled-grade water, which is corrosive to metals used in the
construction of dental units�
The VistaPure system is designed to be built in to sterilization center cabinetry, and can also be installed in
an equipment room� The system provides up to 4�25 gallons of treated water in its pressurized storage tank
(based on city water pressure), and automatically replenishes this supply as water is drawn from storage�
The system does not require electricity—it needs only a potable supply of cold water and a drain� To
maximize the life of the system filtration elements, we recommend that the water supplied to the system
be free of sediment, and softened if the source water is very hard�
Introduction
Please read this entire manual before proceeding with installation and operation, and always follow local
plumbing codes.
The VistaPure system can be installed nearly anywhere in the typical dental, medical, lab or hospital setting,
typically near a faucet and sink in a sterilization center� The system and tank are designed to fit in a base
cabinet, but can be installed anywhere there is a quality cold water supply and drain connection� The system
board is designed for horizontal installation� Please keep the system board and water storage tank at the same
level� The system should be installed no farther than 10-12’ from where the wand and faucet will be used�
Please locate the system label on the corner of the mounting board and record the installation date using a
fine-tipped permanent marker or some other writing instrument that will not smear�
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For System Installers
We recommend that a professional technician or plumber familiar with dental/medical oces perform the
installation since interface with a cold water line and drain is involved� He/she should be familiar with local
plumbing codes and techniques for successful dental/medical equipment installations�
Please keep the Installation Guide & Owner’s Manual handy for future reference and ensure that anyone
responsible for operation and maintenance of the system is familiar with all details contained in this manual�
Please return the registration form or register online at vrg�support/register immediately upon installation�
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For System Owners
We recommend turning o the system at the end of each work day by closing the valves on the system
board, water storage tank, and autoclave wand�
