Extended Product Information

FAQs

How often do I need to change the filters?

Filter change frequency depends on water usage and water quality, but the smart tap's automatic maintenance warning will notify you when it's time, typically every 6-12 months for standard filters.

What is the main benefit of Direct Flow RO?

The main benefit is that it produces purified water on demand without a storage tank, ensuring fresher water and saving space, unlike traditional RO systems.

Can this system remove fluoride and nitrates?

Yes, the advanced Reverse Osmosis technology used in this unit is highly effective at removing fluoride, nitrates, and over 1000 other common and uncommon contaminants.

Does the unit require electricity?

Most direct flow RO systems require electricity to power the pump that ensures adequate pressure for direct flow. Please refer to the product's specific technical specifications.

What is the role of the leak sensor?

The leak sensor is a safety feature that detects water leaks. Upon detection, it can automatically shut off the water supply to the unit, preventing potential water damage to your home.

How does the automatic maintenance warning work?

The smart tap is equipped with sensors that monitor filter performance and lifespan. When a filter is nearing the end of its effective life, the control warning lights on the tap will illuminate to alert you.

Is the water produced acidic?

Reverse Osmosis can slightly lower the pH of water, making it slightly acidic. However, the degree of pH change is typically minimal and safe for consumption.

Troubleshooting

No water or low water flow from the smart tap

Check if the cold water supply valve is fully open. Ensure filters are not clogged and require replacement. Verify that the drain line is not blocked.

Water tastes or smells unusual

This usually indicates that the RO membrane or carbon filters need to be replaced. Ensure all connections are secure and that no contaminants are bypassing the filters.

Smart tap warning light is on

The warning light indicates a maintenance requirement, most likely a need to replace one or more filter cartridges. Refer to the user manual for specific light codes.

Leak detected by the system

Immediately check all plumbing connections and filter housings for any signs of leakage. Tighten any loose fittings or replace seals as necessary. If the leak persists, shut off the water supply to the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Installation typically involves connecting the unit to your cold water supply line, usually under the sink. The system features quick connections for ease of installation. A dedicated drain line connection is required. The included smart tap needs to be mounted on your sink or countertop. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's detailed installation manual or consult a professional plumber for optimal setup.

Compatibility: This unit is designed to connect to standard household cold water supply lines. Ensure you have adequate space under your sink for the main unit and its plumbing connections. The smart tap requires a suitable hole in your sink or countertop.

  • Filter Replacement: Cartridges need to be changed periodically. The automatic maintenance warning on the smart tap will indicate when this is due.
  • Leak Check: Periodically visually inspect all connections for any signs of leaks, though the automatic leak detection system provides an added layer of security.
  • Sanitization: Follow manufacturer guidelines for periodic sanitization of the system, especially if water has been stagnant.
