Warning! <br />Polluted water <br />Lagoon known to contain: <br />. .Car wrecks <br />.Dead animals <br />.Excrement <br />.Rulpbish <br />11115.11, <br />• <br />Sapi•System <br />SYSTEM START-UP/SANITIZING <br />The system should be sanitized prior to use, annually and after any service or filter replacement. Use a tray or drip pan to catch any <br />spilled water. Use a good quality unscented 5.25% liquid chlorine bleach or preferably a sanitizing agent designed specifically for <br />Reverse Osmosis Sanitization. We recommend Sani-System RO Sanitizer. <br />With the feed water turned off and the system drained of water through the faucet, remove all filters, filter cartridges and <br />membrane from the system. <br />Using a soft cloth, mild detergent and warm water, clean the inside of the housings. Thoroughly rinse the housings. Replace <br />the 0-rings with new lubricated 0-rings. <br />Pour the entire packet of Sani-System Ro Sanitizer or add about 2 teaspoons of 5.25% bleach into the first housing. Take <br />care not to contact the 0-rings or housing threads with bleach. Install the housings on to the caps. Firmly hand tighten <br />only. <br />With the system faucet still in the open position, slowly open the feed water valve. Allow the sys- <br />tem to fill with water, carrying the Sani-System or bleach solution throughout all internal wetted <br />areas. <br />Close the faucet and allow the system to fill completely. This should take about 5 minutes. With <br />Sani-System, allow this solution to stay in the system for 5 minutes. With Bleach, allow the solution to <br />stay in the system for at least 20 minutes but no longer than 30 minutes. <br />Close the inlet valve and open the faucet to allow the system to drain. When the water stops draining close the faucet and <br />open the inlet valve and repeat this step. <br />Remove the housings, discard the water and rinse thoroughly. <br />install new filter cartridges and the membrane. <br />Allow system to run and fill the storage tank. It is essential to have leak protection in place and to monitor the system for <br />leaks. Watch diligently for leaks during the first few hours of operation. <br />Allow the system to fill the tank and discard the first full three tanks of water. <br />If you suspect bacterial contamination a more thorough sanitization procedure may be needed or a complete system re- <br />placement including all the tubes, tank and the faucet. Coliform and e coli test kits are available for a minimal cost.
