CONFIGURING A MANUAL FLUSH SYSTEM FOR THE DRINKING WATER KIT:
SpectraPure “-MF” Systems (MC-RODI-xx-MF, CSPDI-xx-MF, CSP-xx-MF) are configured in such a way as to be incompatible
with the Drinking Water Kit. Follow these steps to convert your “-MF” system into a compatible configuration.
THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH “-AF” SYSTEMS.
1. Disconnect the blue tube, the short yellow tube and the red (or green - whichever you chose during Setup) tube
from the ASO Valve. You should find the short Flow Restrictor inside the red (or green) tube.
2. Disconnect the black tube from the RO membrane housing. Reroute it from the center hole in the back of the bracket
to the left-hand hole (as viewed from behind). Measure 3 inches of black tube above the bracket and cut the black
tube in two. That black tube from the carbon block connects to the only IN port of the ASO.
3. The OUT port of the ASO now connects to the membrane housing input, using a newly-cut length of black tubing
supplied in the kit.
4. Cut the blue tube still connected to the membrane housing down so there is only 1 inch of tubing exposed. Connect
a 1/4" Check Valve to this blue tube with the arrow pointing away from the blue tube.
5. Cut a piece of blue tube down to 2 inches. Connect one end to the the remaining free end of the Check Valve and
the other end to the ASO Valve. (Note: the arrow should be pointed towards the ASO valve.)
6. Disconnect the short yellow tubing from the Y fitting that was once connected to the ASO valve.
7. Insert the red (or green) tube with the Flow Restrictor in that end into that Y fitting.
8. Cut the longer yellow tube that is still attached to the ball valve so that it, the ball valve, and the short yellow tube
matches the length of the red (or green) tube.
9. Reconnect the yellow and red (or green) tubes to the Y fitting. Now you are ready to hook up your drinking water
kit as it is shown in the following pages.

ICE MAKER HOOKUP (OPTIONAL)
1. Turn off feed supply valve and the ball valve on tank.
2. Locate the Blue tube that leads to the faucet.
3. Cut the tube and reconnect the cut ends with a 3/8” x 3/8” x 1/4” Tee.
4. Connect 1/4” Tubing to the third leg of the tee and route to refrigerator.
5. Turn on feed supply valve and the ball valve on tank.
CONFIGURING A LEGACY SYSTEM FOR THE DRINKING WATER KIT:
(Including MPRO, MPDI, CSP, CSPDI and MAXCAP models without automatic or manual flush)
1. Locate the Black Tube between the Carbon Filter and the Membrane.
2. Cut the Black Tube in two.
3. Insert the cut end from the Carbon Filter into the IN Port of the ASO Valve.
4. Insert the cut end from the RO Membrane Housing into the OUT Port of the ASO Valve.
5. Locate the Blue Tube (product water) that leaves the RO Membrane Housing.
6. Cut the Blue Tube 2” from the membrane housing.
7. Using the 1 lb Check Valve, reconnect the two cut ends with the arrow pointing away from the membrane.
8. Position the Blue Tube along side the ASO Valve to determine where the blue tube needs to be cut. Then cut the
blue tube and reconnect the two cut ends with the two remaining ports of the ASO Valve. (See Diagram on Page 6.)

PREPARATION
1. Prepare for installation by removing all items from under the sink. Locate and turn off the COLD water supply and
open the sink faucet to relieve any remaining pressure.
2. Determine an appropriate location for the Drinking Water System, Bladder Tank, Feed Water Connection, Drain
Saddle, and the Non -Air Gap Faucet for your specific application.
3. TOOLS RECOMMENDED FOR INSTALLATION:
- Adjustable Wrench
- Sharp Knife
- Open End Wrench
- Phillips Screw Driver
- Needle Nose Pliers- Adjustable Pliers
- Electric Drill
- 1/2" Hole Saw Bit for Faucet Opening (depends on faucet used)
- Round Knock out Punch for Stainless Sinks, 1/2"
DRILL HOLE FOR FAUCET IN A PORCELAIN SINK
NOTE: Porcelain sink material is extremely hard and can crack or chip quite easily. To avoid this, use extreme caution
when drilling. A carbide tipped masonry bit is recommended. SpectraPure®accepts no responsibility for
consequential damage resulting from the installation of the faucet.
STEP 1. Determine a desired location for the faucet on your sink and place a piece of masking tape on the location
where the hole is to be drilled. Mark the center of the hole on the tape.
STEP 2. Use a variable speed drill on the slowest speed. Drill a 1/8" Pilot hole through both porcelain and metal casing
of sink at the center of the desired location. (If drill bit gets hot it may cause the porcelain to crack or chip.)
STEP 3. Use a 1/2” hole saw and proceed to drill the large hole. Keep drill speed on the slowest speed and use lubricating
oil or liquid soap to keep the hole saw cool during cutting.
STEP 4. Make sure the surroundings of the sink are cooled before mounting the faucet to the sink after drilling. Remove
all sharp edges with a file.
PUNCH HOLE FOR FAUCET IN STAINLESS STEEL SINK
STEP 1. If mounting faucet to a Stainless Steel Sink you will need a bimetal or carbide tipped hole saw.
STEP 2. The Faucet opening should be centered between the back splash and the edge of the sink, ideally on the
same side as the vertical drain pipe.
STEP 3. Drill a 1/4” pilot hole. Use a bimetal or carbide tipped hole saw to punch the 1/2” hole in the sink.

FEED SUPPLY VALVE INSTALLATION
STEP 1. Follow the cold water line from shut-off valve to the existing faucet and unscrew the threaded connection.
STEP 2. Insert feed supply valve between cold water line and existing connection.
STEP 3. Follow the assembly sequence shown for attaching valve to the existing cold water line.
STEP 4. Connect Black line from RO system as shown in Fig 1.
a. Remove the 1/2" Compression Nut from Valve body. Be carefull not to loose the plastic or brass Insert and
the Conical Compression Sleeve.
b. Insert the 1/4” Black Tubing into the Compression Nut with the threads towards the end of the tube.
c. Slip the Conical Compression Sleeve onto the Black Tube with the long slope pointing toward the end of
the tube.
d. Place the Insert into the end of the Black Tubing. Make sure you push the insert in all the way.
e. Tighten Compression Nut back on the Valve body.
STEP 5. When installation of the valve is complete, check for leaks as follows:
a. Close Feed Supply Valve that you just installed.
b. Open cold water supply valve and check for leaks around feed supply valve fittings. Tighten if necessary.
NOTE: To be certain of the cold line; turn on the hot water, allow water to run until pipe becomes warm. Then
attach fitting to the cold water line. If you run hot water through your system it will damage the membrane.

FAUCET INSTALLATION
1. Place the chrome counter plate and large rubber washer over the threaded shaft on the faucet and insert this
assembly into hole previously drilled on page 7.
2. Place the small rubber washer, locating washer, flat metal washer, and hex nut in sequence over the threaded shaft
and temporarily hand-tighten. (Fig. 2)
3. Insert the Blue Tube into the Compression Nut with the threads towards the end of the tube. Then add the
Compression Sleeve.
4. Place the Insert into the end of the Blue Tubing. Make sure you push the insert in all the way. Screw the Compression
Nut onto the threaded shaft.
5. Securely tighten both hex nut and Compression Nut.
6. DO NOT CUT EXCESS TUBING AT THIS POINT. YOU WILL NEED THE TUBING TO INSTALL THE TANK.
TIP: When connecting the tubes to the hose barbs, try using HOT water to soften the plastic tubes. When connecting the
drain lines to the saddle, make the lengths as short and straight as possible to reduce drainage noise.

DRAIN SADDLE INSTALLATION
1. Refer to Figure 4 and determine the location for the drain saddle assembly and drain hole. It must be located above
the “P” trap (“U” shaped bend in drain pipe) on the sink side of the drain pipe.
2. Place the half of the drain saddle with threaded nipple at a predetermined location. Slide a pencil through the plastic
nipple and make a mark on the drain pipe.
3. Use a small punch and indent a start position to prevent the drill bit from wandering. Drill a 3/8" hole in the drain
pipe through the mark on one side only, do not drill through both sides of the drain pipe.
4. Clean any loose shavings from around the hole.
5. Refer to Figure 5 showing the drain saddle assembly sequence. Press nuts in back half of drain saddle assembly.
6. Align the front half of the drain saddle by inserting a pencil through the plastic nipple and the newly drilled hole in
the drain pipe.
7. Install the back half of the drain saddle and clamp assembly to drain pipe by screwing in the mounting bolts until snug.
