Introduction

Thank you for your purchase of a state of the art Watts Reverse

Osmosis (RO) water treatment system. Water quality concerns are

becoming more of a focus for the public. You may have heard about

contaminants in the drinking water, such as Arsenic, Chromium,

Cryptosporidium or Giardia. There may also be some local water

issues such as high levels of Lead and Copper. This Watts water

treatment system has been designed and tested to provide you with

high quality drinking water for years to come. The following is a brief

overview of the system.

Your Reverse Osmosis System:

Osmosis is the process of water passing through a semi-permeable

membrane in order to balance the concentration of contaminants

on each side of the membrane. A semi-permeable membrane is a

barrier that will pass some particles like clean drinking water, but not

other particles like arsenic and lead.

Reverse osmosis uses a semi-permeable membrane; however, by

applying pressure across the membrane, it concentrates contami-

nants (like a strainer) on one side of the membrane, producing crystal

clear water on the other. This is why RO systems produce both clean

drinking water and waste water that is ﬂushed from the system. This

reverse osmosis system also utilizes carbon block ﬁltration technol-

ogy and can, therefore, provide a higher quality drinking water than

carbon ﬁltration systems alone.

Your system is a 4-Stage RO which is based upon separate treat-

ment segments within the one complete water ﬁltration system.

These stages are as follows:

Stage 1 – Sediment ﬁlter, recommended change 6 months.

The ﬁrst stage of your RO system is a ﬁve-micron sedi-

ment ﬁlter that traps sediment and other particulate matter

like dirt, silt and rust which affect the taste and appear-

ance of your water.

Stage 2 – Carbon ﬁlter, recommended change 6 months.

The second stage contains a ﬁve-micron carbon block

ﬁlter. This helps ensure that chlorine and other materials

that cause bad taste and odor are greatly reduced.

Stage 3 - Membrane, recommended change 2-5 years.

Stage 3 is the heart of the reverse osmosis system, the

RO membrane. This semi-permeable membrane will ef-

fectively take out TDS, Sodium and heavy metals such as

arsenic, copper, and lead, as well as cysts, such as Giar-

dia and cryptosporidium. Because the process of making

this high quality drinking water takes time, your RO water

treatment system is equipped with a storage tank.

Stage 4 - Carbon in-line ﬁlter, recommend change 6 - 12

months.

The ﬁnal stage is an in-line granular activated carbon

(GAC) ﬁlter. This ﬁlter is used after the water storage tank,

and is used as a ﬁnal polishing ﬁlter.

Note: Filter & Membrane life may vary based upon local water

conditions and/or use patterns.

System Maintenance

Just because you can not taste it, does not mean that it is not there.

Contaminants such as lead, chromium and arsenic (to name a few)

are undetectable to the taste. Additionally, over time if you do not

replace the ﬁlter element, other bad tastes and odors will be appar-

ent in your drinking water.

This is why it is important to change out your ﬁlter at the recom-

mended intervals as indicated in this system manual. When replacing

the ﬁlter elements, pay special attention to any cleaning instructions.
