Great directions! Thank you! Just installed an RCC7AK system. The installation was pretty easy. I look forward to using the system.

[@ecovoycanada]

Question: Under normal operating conditions, how much water is actually sent to the drain in this system? Let's say you plug the system in, open the inlet valve, let the system fill and don't use any water (like in a "away from home" scenario), how much water will actually be sent to the drain ? Water is not free in my area, I am trying to understand if this system drains a lot of water or if the drain hookup is just used to backwash the system every now and then. Thanks

[@UserUser14880]

I have everything installed except the black drain line. I ran that up into the sink to see how much water it puts out. And is about 1 gallon a minute. Something isnt right here. Why is so much water being wasted. I will comment back when i figure it out.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Dear customer, The RCC7 pure to waste water ratio is 1:3. Under normal operating conditions, 3 gallons should go to drain. Water should go to drain while the system is being used. Once the tank is full, water should not go to drain. If you have any questions, please kindly contact us at [e-mail], at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST or at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST (Messaging only) to properly help you. We are happy to help!

[@darenleiter9490]

Just installed the RCC7AK (Jan. 2024). The QC coupler leaked after running the water for 5-10 min. Fortunately, I hadn't installed the (one-time leak stop valve) yet. There was no information about where to install it in the installation manual. Glad I watched this video and found out where and how to install the leak-stop protection valve. There are many complaints about leaks on the Amazon website, but good customer service (replacing defective parts quickly).

[@phillipg2418]

Just installed the AK version. My water pressure to my sink faucet plummeted. Why would it effect my hot water? I am not sure of my kitchen water pressure but the outdoor hoses are 50-60psi.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Phillip. This might be caused by airlock. You can find more information from the video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6S0aamMpJ1mqMU

[@freelanxe]

I’m installing this to go to a fridge, since I bought the 6 stage with alkaline. Will the carbon filter in the fridge pull out the alkaline? Also should I figure out a way to bypass the fridges filter system

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! For connecting your RCC7AK to your refrigerator, you need this ICEK kit: www.ispringfilter.com/ac/index.php?rt=product/product&product_id=259 This video provides a step-by-step guide on how to set up the connection: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp63kGl4eKeql6c If your refrigerator has a filter, ensure to bypass it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Doing so will allow your RCC7AK system to operate at its optimal. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

[@Flogger72]

During the prefilter flush, since full flow, the black line jumps around like crazy due to air breathing/gulping issue with it filling up the sink drain. Acts normal in normal operations when the system drainsge is much slower, just did that during the flush. Seems ok? (Installed on horizontal sink drain pvc component before the trap)

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! Thank you for sharing the details about your system's behavior during the pre filter flush. What you’re experiencing might be trapped air in the drain line, causing the black drain line to move or "jump" when water discharges rapidly. Since the system operates normally during regular use and the behavior occurs only during the pre filter flush, it seems everything is functioning as expected. However if you notice any unusual behavior or if you have any concerns or questions, please reach out to us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

[@treyadams6031]

Do I still need pipe fitting tape while installing? If not, would it help anyways as an extra measure to prevent leaks?

[@bgy1591]

If something has a o-ring you don’t need tape. I believe everything on these kits have o-rings

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Trey. You don't need tapes for quick-connect fittings. If you need extra guidance for installation, please give us a call at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST). We are happy to help!

Am i correct that the water that comes through the tap is filtered only through the first few stages below, whereas the drinking faucet goes through an extra couple of stages? What extra stages does the drinking faucet go through and what does it do?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there. The water that comes from the inlet water supply passes through all the different stages that the systems have before going to the faucet. Please, check this video to know how the systems work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYe9g6CFjq9rsNk If you have any concerns or questions, please kindly contact us at [e-mail], at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST or at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST (Messaging only) We are happy to help!

[@ppark2013]

@thatonealtimaguy What did they say about this? I just realized mine is also a metal drain pipe and not a PVC pipe.

[@GerardoPedraza]

9:09 the red hose is shown being connected to the membrane and also connected to the CTO filter. I think it should be connected to the sediment filter. And also not to the membrane. Can you confirm this?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Gerry, prefilter water inlet and outlet are both red tubings. Prefilter outlet red tubing connects to the automatic shut-off valve (high-pressure side) and connects to the RO membrane water inlet. tubing color may vary on different systems. If you still have questions, please email us at [e-mail] or call us at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST). We are happy to help!

[@Carlos_Cerda_Moya]

I noticed that the leak stop valve does not have locking clips. Is not necessary? Thanks

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there. Yes, they are needed to secure the tubings. You can find the locking clips in the spare bag that comes with the system. If you do not have them or if you have any questions or concerns, please, kindly contact us at [e-mail], at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST or at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST (Messaging only) We are happy to help!

[@Carlos_Cerda_Moya]

Ok, then it should be included in the video and the locking clips should be the same color as the valve like the others. Thankfully when I installed mine almost a year ago I came to that conclusion and I did that but yesterday when I istalled another one for my mom I didnt, I'll have to go back today to install those locking clips. Another fault is that there are no adapters for the European water inlet thread despite buying it on Amazon Spain. I have had to spend €17 to buy a replacement for the part... twice. Everything else is fine, that's why I recommended my mother install a system for herself. Thanks@@iSpringWaterSystems

[@LeoJUrban]

I live in Southeastern North Carolina. Can I install the system in my attic above my icemaker?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! The system needs to be connected to a drain line. Please note that a maximum distance from the system to the faucet or icemaker of 15 feet is possible. We don't recommend any lines to be longer than 15 feet in length since there simply won't be enough pressure. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 8:30-5:30 EST). Thank you!

[@garrysabino5139]

I bought RCC7AK and installed it today. The filter casings and tubing produces moisture due to cold water from the well and this causes the water leak valve to closed. I have removed the water leak valve for now. Any suggestions?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Garry. Please give us a call at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST). We'd love to help you after knowing more details.

[@LeoJUrban]

I would like to install this system in a closet behind my refrigerator icemaker. I do not have a drain. I would like to run a 1/4 copper drain line vertically about 10 feet and then horizontally about 20 feet before attaching it to a drain line. Will this work?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! The system will not have enough pressure to push the drain water uphill more than 5 feet, so we don't suggest this type of drain installation. Please contact us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 8:30-5:30 EST) to properly help you. Thank you!

[@DKits73]

is after the P Trap the right spot to tap the drain tube in or should we put it before the P Trap to prevent sewer gasses entering into the tube.i would like to put mine after because of basement install just not sure if your Video is correct

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Thank you for reaching out to us. For the drain tube of the RCC7, it is generally recommended to place it before the P trap to prevent sewer gases from entering into the tube. This is to ensure that the system works efficiently and to avoid any unpleasant odors. However, if placing the tube before the P trap is not feasible for your installation, placing it after the P trap should still work, but you may need to take extra precautions to prevent any odors from entering your home. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

[@DKits73]

@@iSpringWaterSystems Thanks for the reply I see now that this system has a auto flush flow valve with restrictor built in I believe so their should be no way for gasses to go back towards the membrane as the valve will be closed when water is not running also the drain tie in for saddle is higher than the drain point @ the membrane so water left in tube should act as a Ptrap

[@willrobinson9575]

@@DKits73 Tomorrow im going to install my waste water drain after the P trap like you because i too am putting my system in the basement. I dont see any problem with sewer gas for the same reasons you mentioned. You are right, this video shows installing it after the P trap. Their earlier version of this video shows them putting it before the trap. In that installation they had a double bowl sink with 2 horizontal pipes. This video is a single so in order to install in a horizontal , they had to install it after the trap

[@skinfiddler]

I cannot drill through an older enamel/iron sink and the dish washer cabinet is on one side and a cabinet with a drawer is on the other side. In short I'm having a difficult time finding a place to install the drinking water faucet

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! You can use the hole from your existing faucet if it's compatible. The faucet included with the system requires a 1/2" hole. Simply remove your existing faucet and replace it with the one provided. Alternatively, you can continue using your existing faucet as long as it is RO-compatible. This means it must be a non-air gap faucet and able to connect with the 1/4" tubing/quick-connect fitting. Please note that our systems are only compatible with non-air gap faucets. We totally recommend using the faucet that comes with the system for optimal performance. If you have more questions or concerns, please reach out to us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

[@haticeam9029]

I installed RCC7AK. I didn't know about this new video so I did not instal leak dedection unit. Is it a must to have it. Can the system work without it. Also I did not flush the stage 1,2 and 3 filters as it was not in the old installation video but I believe they will be flushed once the storage tank is flushed. Lastly my main issue that I have, it has been 5 hours since the installation completion but there is continuous water coming out of black drain feed. How do I fix it? Thanks in advance.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi dear customer! Yes, the system can work without the leak detector alarm, however the leak detector is designed to detect and set alarm for possible leak and shut off water supply automatically to prevent flooding. Please, check the Leak Detector Alarm System with Automatic Shut-off Valve here: LS43: www.123filter.com/ac/index.php...mp;product_id=10031&acid=2 Check how to install it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3vci2Rqaa2ga7M Regarding the pre-filters flush, we recommend performing the pre-filters wash every time you replace the filters to prevent carbon particles (if any) from passing to the membrane. For the continuous drain issue, please check the air tank pressure first. The air tank pressure should be 7-10 psi. Please, check this video to know how to pressurize your tank: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2exlGytp9Okd68 If after pressurizing your tank the issue is not solved, please check the following video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmXVgZSZo6h-jNE or kindly contact us at [e-mail] or at [phone] M-F 8:30-5:30 EST to properly guide you.

If the temperature in my attic occasionally reaches 100° what is the likely damage to the system?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! The operating temperature range for the system is 40°F-100°F. Installing the system in an attic where temperatures can exceed this range can significantly affect its performance and longevity. Prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures may cause damage to the system components and reduce efficiency. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 8:30-5:30 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

[@dorianhowell3571]

Does this work for hot water and dishwasher?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! This system is intended for drinking water purposes only, and it is not suitable for hot water or use with appliances like dishwashers. Exposing the system to hot water can damage the filters and system. If you have any concerns or questions about our products, please reach out to us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

Drilling into a drain pipe and installing a saddle drain is wrong too. Saddle connections should never be used and no air gap? Terrible video.

[@petermichaelw]

You are an alarmist and talking out of your hat. There is a one way valve in the unit, preventing any flow in the wrong direction. You are much more likely to have an air leakage from the p-trap joints than this 1/4" hole with a properly clamped saddle.

Hi RJ. If it's the problem of constant drain, sometimes the tank needs to be re-pressurized after changing filters if the valve on tank was not closed. If the flow restrictor sprung a leak then you can remove it and soak it in some white vinegar for a while then blow it out. We can also replace it as a courtesy.

Ho fatto il cambio dei filtri e di quello Alcanilico ma ora l’acqua ha un PH che si aggira a 9, da cosa dipende?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there. Your final pH score will depend on the pH of your source water. During the filtration process, the water will be stripped of all contaminants and minerals which will reduce the levels of pH. The alkaline filter will replenish most of the alkalinity lost during the filtration process, but it may not bring it higher than the tap water that feeds the system. So, the pH level depends on your feed water level. If you have more questions or concerns, please reach out to us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

I drained the prefilters with the RO membrane connected. Am I in trouble? Did I ruin my RO membrane?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there. It should be ok if the RO membrane is new but we don't recommend making it a regular practice. The pre-filters have a lifespan of about 6-12 months, while the RO membrane can last 2-3 years. Flushing the pre-filters while the RO membrane is connected may cause any loose carbon particles from the pre-filters to get caught in the RO membrane, potentially reducing its lifespan.

Mine won't stop water coming out of the drain, does anyone know why?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! It might be that the tank is not full. Please, kindly check that the tank is full. It takes about 1-2 hours for the tank to fill. Another reason might be that your incoming water pressure is below 40 psi, so the tank cannot be fully filled to shut off the system. Please, kindly check that the incoming water pressure is at least 40 psi. If it is not, a pump should be added to increase the pressure through the system. If your incoming water pressure is 40 psi, it will be necessary to check the Automatic Shut off valve (AAS2) or Check valve.

Can I eliminate the tank

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! If your system includes a tank, it cannot operate without it. However, we offer several tankless RO options that you can explore here: www.ispringfilter.com/ac/high-flow-ro If you have any concerns or questions about our products, please reach out to us at [e-mail] or 678-261-7611 (M-F 9:00-5:00 EST) for proper assistance. Thank you!

what is the purpose of the storage tank?

[@9001sem]

can the system be used/installed without the storage tank?

[@kazutosan]

@@9001sem No, this system is not tankless. the purpose of the tank is to store the reverse osmosis water and provide pressure while you turn the RO faucet.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Water is stored in a bladder, made of a material called butyl. When there is a demand for water, the water is pushed out of the tank's bladder by air pressure. As water is forced into the tank by the operation of the RO unit, pressure inside the tank increases. In other words, it will help you to store water and increase the pressure in the system.

el tubo de drenaje bota agua permanante que hago? quien me ayuda por favor?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

¡Hola! ¿Puedes verificar que el tanque esté completamente lleno? El tanque toma de 1-2 horas para llenarse completamente. ¿Sabes si la presión de tu fuente de agua es por lo menos 45 psi? Si la presión de tu fuente de agua es menos de 45 psi, necesitarías agregar una booster pump.

What is the lifespan of this product? How many liters of water can it produce before it needs to be change? Source of water is tap water.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! If the system is maintained, filters replaced and kept clean it can last up to 10 years. In hard water areas systems may require more maintenance. All parts are available on our website and inexpensive. The filters usually need to be replaced every 6-12 months. If you have more questions, please feel free to contact us at 678-261-7611 (M-F, 8:30 - 5:30 EST) or email us at [e-mail]. We are happy to help.

What can happen if water inlet pressure is below 45psi?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Sean. If water pressure is below 45 psi the system is not as efficient. More water will go to drain. The RO membrane is very tight and higher pressure is required. RO system with pump is recommended.

2 min 30 sec says to cut the red tube to fit. STOP....RESEARCH GO TO 8MIN and 10 sec. install stop leak valve before cutting red tube. there is also a bracket for installing the faucet onto a wall. There is no mention of this bracket. There is no mention of how high to mount the filters. I found 2 to 3 inch gap under the filter will allow filter removal.

Why bother installing a drinking faucet? Couldn't you just drink the filtered water from the normal filtered faucet?

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi there! We recommend using the faucet that comes with the system for optimal performance. However, you can use your existing faucet as long as it is RO-compatible. This means it must be a non-air gap faucet and able to connect with the 1/4" tubing/quick-connect fitting. Please note that our systems are only compatible with non-air gap faucets.

Please correct your instructions. At kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3bZfaSBnrWUa80, you instruct to cut the red tubing, then, for the leak stop valve, at kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3bZfaSBnrWUa80, you tell us to cut the red tubing again. If the red tubing is cut too short the first time, there's not enough tubing to install the leak stop valve.

[@iSpringWaterSystems]

Hi Chris, thanks for the comment. We recommend leaving enough tubing length for future maintenance before cutting them(for under-sink setting). Therefore, you should have enough tubing length for installing the leak stop valve after filter prewash. Thanks again!
