Installation

1. Location:
   • Find a suitable location close to water connection and drainage.
   • Make sure the system is stable and upright.
2. Assembly:
   • Remove the blue lock and hose to the RO membrane housing
   • Install the RO membrane as shown in the picture and reinstall the hose.
   • Connect the water hose (white) to the system and the tap with the included adapter or tap connector.
   • Connect the waste water hose (red) and lead it to the drain or tank for garden watering etc.
   • Connect the RO water out hose (blue)
   • Replace all the little blue fuses.
   • The tap is used to adjust the ratio of spinning water to RO water.
3. Density test:
   • Slowly open the tap and check that all connections are tight.
   • Fix any leaks immediately.

Operation and use

1. Start:
   • Allow the system to run for at least 15 minutes on first use to clean the system.
   • Adjust the tap to about 1/3 RO water
   • If you have a TDS meter, you can fine-tune the ratio between RO and spin water for optimal water utilisation.
   • Now collect the first RO water.
2. Daily use:
   • Leave the system running and collect the purified water in a clean, preferably sterile container.
   • The water is now ready to use in your beer brewing.
3. Mineral customisation:
   • Customise the mineral profile as needed with desired salts (e.g. calcium chloride, calcium sulphate, calcium carbonate or magnesium sulphate). See more under Water treatment

Maintenance

• Filter replacement:
  • Sediment filter and carbon filter should be changed every 6-12 months depending on usage and water quality.
  • The RO membrane is typically replaced every 2-3 years or when efficiency drops noticeably.
• Regular cleaning:
  • Flush the system with clean water if it has not been used for an extended period of time.
  • Store the system in a dry place when not in use to avoid bacterial growth.

Troubleshooting

• Low water production:
  • Check the water pressure and temperature (ideally 2.1 bar and 12-20°C).
  • Check filters and membrane for clogging and replace if necessary.
• Leaky system:
  • Check all fittings and gaskets and tighten or replace if necessary.
