GENERAL
INSTALLATION AND SERVICE PARAMETERS
XX |
The
SWT Basic™ RO System will work at peak efficiency on
either municipal or ground water supplies that do not exceed
the following:
Maximum psi
Minimum psi
Chlorine
TDS
Iron
Hardness
Hydrogen Sulfide
Manganese |
125 lbs.
35 lbs.
2 ppm
1500 ppm
0.4 ppm
17 gr/gal
0.05 ppm
0.1 ppm |
The SWT Basic™ has
been designed to give many years of trouble free service.
To keep the system operating in peak efficiency, it is recommended
that the unit be inspected every six months for possible prefilter
sediment clogging (especially if there is a lot of sediment
in the water supply). |
XX |
The
manufacturer recom-mends that the system be serviced on an
annual basis to replace the carbon filtration module and the
RO membrane module.*
* The RO membrane module may last for a much
longer period of time on relatively good water. Check with
your Water Treatment Professional for local water characteristics
and testing. |
