GENERAL
WARNING:
Do not use with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the system.
Systems certified for cyst reduction* may be
used on disinfected waters that may contain
filterable cysts.
*NSF/ANSI Standard 58 certified to reduce cysts such as
Cryptosporidium and Giardia by mechanical means.
CAUTION
RO System must be protected against freezing,
which can cause cracking of the RO components
and water leakage.
NOTE:
Your water must be within required limits for satisfactory
operation. If not, your membrane life may be shortened and
your warranty will be voided (see Specifications on page 3).
This reverse osmosis system will not protect against
disease-causing bacteria or remove naturally-occurring
harmless bacteria.
• Install on cold water line only.
Make certain that installation complies with all state and
local laws and regulations.
The replacement cartridges and reverse osmosis element
included with this system have limited service lives. Changes
in taste, odor, and color of the water being filtered indicate
that the cartridge should be replaced.
After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a
vacation) it is recommended that the system be flushed for 5
minutes before it is used.
A drinking water cartridge may contain carbon fines (very
fine black powder). After installation, flush the system for 5
minutes to remove the carbon fines before using the water.
It is recommended that you run the tap at least 20 seconds
prior to using water for drinking or cooking purposes.
The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced
by this water treatment device are not necessarily present in
your water.
HOW REVERSE OSMOSIS WORKS
The GRO-350B/GRO-350M Reverse Osmosis (RO) System uses
a semi-permeable membrane to reduce dissolved salts and
minerals, improving the taste and odor of your water. The RO
membrane is made of layers of micron-thin film wound around
a hollow center core. Water molecules can pass through the
membrane, but dissolved salts and minerals are rejected.
The GRO-350B/GRO-350M Reverse Osmosis System features
3-stage filter action. Your water supply is pre-filtered to
reduce dirt and chlorine that may foul the membrane. The RO
membrane separates this pre-filtered water into PRODUCT
WATER and DRAIN or REJECT WATER. Incoming water
pressure forces the product water through the membrane and
into the storage tank. Dissolved solids and other contaminants
cannot pass through the membrane and are sent to the drain
as reject water. When you open the drinking water faucet,
product water is drawn from the storage tank through an
activated carbon post-filter, providing you with cleaner, great-
tasting water.
For each gallon of water produced, several gallons are
discharged as reject water. The storage tank can hold up to
2.1 gallons (7.9 L) of water at a time, for drinking and cooking
needs. When used under the Specifications on page 3 of the
manual, your Reverse Osmosis membranes should last 12-24
months.
PRECAUTIONS

INSTALLATION
Please read all instructions and precautions before installing and using
your GRO-350B/GRO-350M.
For standard, under-sink installation on 3/8" (9.52 mm) steel, brass, or
copper cold water line.
When selecting a mounting location of the system and tank, take into
consideration the length of tubing required for connections between existing
plumbing and system components. Some installation sites may require
more tubing than provided in the kit.
Numbered diagrams correspond with numbered steps.
1. Installing the Water Supply Adapter
The supply adapter fits 1/2"-14 NPS supply threads or
3/8" x 3/8" compression. If local codes permit, it may be used to connect the
system to the cold water supply line. If local codes do not permit the use of the
supply adapter, alternate connectors can be obtained from your local supplier.
Directions:
(A) Turn off cold water supply line. If cold water line does not have a shut-off
valve under the sink, you should install one.
(B) Turn on the cold water faucet and allow all water to drain from line.
(C) Disconnect riser cold water supply valve.
(D) Ensure the sealing gasket is fully seated into the feed adapter valve female
thread.
(E) Install feed adapter valve onto supply valve as desired. The feed adapter valve
may be installed at the bottom of the supply hose or the top of the cold water
line. Hand tighten only.
(F) Connect the riser to the feed adapter valve.
NOTE: Be careful not to cross-thread.

INSTALLATION CONTINUED . . .
2. Selecting the Faucet Location
The drinking water faucet should be positioned with function, convenience, and
appearance in mind. An adequate flat area is required to allow faucet base to rest
securely. The faucet fits through a 3/4" hole. Most sinks have pre-drilled 1-3⁄8" or
1-1⁄2" diameter holes that may be used for faucet installation. If these pre-drilled
holes cannot be used or are in an inconvenient location, it will be necessary to
drill a 3/4" hole in the sink to accommodate the faucet.
CAUTION
This procedure may generate dusts which can cause severe irritation if
inhaled or come in contact with the eyes. The use of safety glasses and
safety mask for this procedure is recommended.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-PORCELAIN SINK. If
you have an all-porcelain sink, mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer
hole or drill through countertop next to sink.
CAUTION
When drilling through a countertop, make sure the area below the
drilled area is free of wiring and piping. Make certain that you have
ample room to make the proper connections to the bottom of the
faucet.
CAUTION
Do not drill through a countertop that is more than 1" thick.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble, granite or similar
countertop. Consult a plumber or the countertop manufacturer for
advice or assistance.
The following instructions apply to stainless steel sinks ONLY.
(A) Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent shavings, parts or tools from
falling down the drain.
(B) Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to help prevent scratches if
drill bit slips.
(C) Mark point with center punch. Use a 1/4" drill bit to drill a pilot hole through
sink.
(D) Use a 1-
1
4" hole saw to enlarge hole. Smooth rough edges with a file.
3. Mounting the Faucet
WARNING:
Due to variance in installation sites, it is highly recommended to
install the 1/4" red drain tubing to the RO system manifold before
fully mounting the faucet. Make note of the 1/4" red drain tubing
length required to reach from the RO system manifold to the
faucet connection and plan accordingly in relation to mounting
location of system components. Furthermore, the 1/4" red drain
tubing includes a flow controller installed in one end of the
tubing. The end of the tubing with the flow restrictor must be
securely installed into the RO system manifold before attaching to
the faucet. DO NOT cut off the flow restrictor.
NOTE: Not all parts provided with the faucet may be needed for installation.
(A) Slide chrome plate and black rubber washer onto faucet by threading both
drain tubes through the holes on the plate and washer.
(B) Attach large diameter red 3/8" drain tube to barb fitting at the faucet base.
This tube should be long enough to reach the drain clamp in Step 4.
(C) Locate the small diameter red 1/4" drain tube connected to the drain port
of the GRO element. Route the tubing to the faucet and cut off the excessive
length of tubing.
(D) Slide white extension spacer onto long threaded section of faucet. Open end
of extension should come in contact with base of faucet.
(E) Screw washer, lockwasher, and locking nut onto end of faucet threads
(F) Screw quick connector onto end of facuet threads.

4. Installing the Drain Clamp
NOTE: If you have a single-basin sink with a disposal unit, call Technical Support
for options.
NOTE: Before installing the drain clamp, check the drainpipes under the sink
for corrosion. Corroded pipes should be replaced before continuing with
installation.
(A) Attach the drain clamp to a vertical section of the drainpipe, about 6" above
the trap. Make sure the opening on the drain clamp is facing towards the
drinking water faucet.
(B) Using the fitting hole of the drain clamp as a guide, drill a 1/4" hole through
one side of the drainpipe.
(C) Remove the drain clamp from the drainpipe and enlarge the hole with a
3/8" drill bit. Use a file to remove rough edges from the drilled hole.
(D) Make sure the black rubber gasket is adhered to the inside of the drain clamp
and place the drain clamp assembly over the drilled hole. Look through the
hole and position the clamp so that the center of the clamp hole is slightly
higher (about 1/16") than the center of the drilled hole. Tighten the clamp
securely.
(E) Screw the plastic compression nut onto the drain clamp until hand-tight.
5. Connecting the Faucet to the Drain
CAUTION
This is a gravity drain line. Any loops, kinks or sharp bends must be
eliminated before proceeding. Failure to create a straight line to the
drain may result in reject water leaking through the air gap in the
faucet onto the countertop and below the faucet.
(A) Align the larger reject 3/8" red tubing from the faucet with the compression
nut on the drain clamp. Create as straight and smooth a path as possible with
the tubing. Do not kink tube. Cut the tubing squarely and remove any internal
and external burrs. Insert inner tube insert (white cone) into end of 3/8" red
tubing. Remove compression nut from the drain clamp. Place compression
nut on end of 3/8" red tubing.
(B) Insert the tubing into the drain port until it stops. Tighten the compression nut
with fingers, then tighten 1 to 2 turns with a wrench to secure tubing to drain
port.
6. Mounting the System
WARNING:
When selecting a mounting location of the system and tank, take
into consideration the length of tubing required for connection
between components. Some installation sites may require more
tubing than provided in the kit.
(A) Select a location under the sink, or other suitable area where the system will
be installed.
NOTE: The system carton can be used to determine the operational footprint
required for installation of the system and replacement cartridges.
(Figure 6)
(B) Mount the system vertically. Ensure mounting is level. Remove filter
cartridges for easier access to bracket mounting holes. Place a pencil mark
in the upper slots of the bracket mounting holes. (Figure 4b). Alternate
mounting option: If mounting the system near the floor, place the pencil
marks above each of the mounting holes on the bracket to ensure enough
space resides below the cartridge and the floor for cartridge replacement
(Figure 4c). Use the 3/32" drill bit to create pilot holes for mounting.
WARNING:
The system should be mounted to a firm, solid surface that is
able to support the weight of the system.
7. Connecting the Faucet to the System
(A) Determine the length of plastic blue tubing needed to connect to the outlet
(right) side of the filter from the faucet. Be sure to allow enough tubing to
prevent kinking and cut the tubing squarely. Use a marker to mark one end of
the tubing 5/8" from the end. Wet the end of the 3/8" tube and push into the
outlet (right) connection of the system up to the mark.

11. System Start-up
NOTE: The reverse osmosis membrane is treated with a food grade sanitizing
agent that may cause an undesirable taste. Although it is not harmful, it
should be flushed from the system.
NOTE: The post-polishing filter may contain fine black carbon particles. These
fines are harmless, but may make the water appear gray in color. The
carbon fines are flushed from the system with the first tank full of water.
NOTE: The RO system does not produce a high volume of water on demand as an
ordinary filter does. Water is produced at a slow, drop-by-drop rate. The
system requires about 2 to 4 hours to fill the storage tank. As water is
taken from the tank, the system automatically starts the cycle of replacing
the water and then stops water production when the tank is full.
CAUTION
Visually check the entire system for leaks.
If a leak is present, see
Troubleshooting on page 14.
(A) Turn off valve at top of storage tank.
(B) Turn on the cold water supply slightly, and ensure the supply adapter valve is
open.
(C) Lift the faucet handle to lock it in the open position and let it drip for 30 min.
(D) Completely open the cold water supply until it comes to a stop. Allow water
to drip from the faucet for 12 more hours. Then close the faucet and open the
valve on the storage tank. The tank valve is open when the handle lines up
with the tubing connection.
(E) Allow 3 hours for the tank to fill. Continue to periodically check the
installation for leaks. After the storage tank is filled, open the faucet to flush
the post-filter cartridge. Allow 4 to 5 minutes for all of the water to drain from
the tank. Close faucet and allow tank to fill.
(F) Repeat step E four times.
NOTE: Initially, the water may appear cloudy. This is a result of air trapped in
the post-polishing filter. It is not harmful and will disappear in a matter
of minutes. It may take up to a week after installing a new post-polishing
filter for the trapped air to dissipate.
The system is ready for operation. You can now enjoy quality water from your
Reverse Osmosis System.

call Technical Support.
High TDS in Product Water
If high levels of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) are detected in
your product water as determined by the TDS Monitor or by the
TDS test kit, the cartridge membrane may need to be replaced
or the reject flow control may be clogged. See your dealer or
plumber to check product water TDS.
Reduced production
Slow or no product water flow usually indicates a clogged
cartridge.
Gradual return of taste and odor
Gradual return of unpleasant taste and odor over a period of
time may indicate that your cartridges need to be replaced.
Sudden return of taste and odor
If shortly after complete servicing noticeable taste and odors
return, contact Technical Support.
No water pressure from the drinking water faucet
or low volume in storage tank
1. Close the cold water supply to system.
2. Lift storage tank to see if it is empty. If not, open the
drinking water faucet to empty water from tank.
NOTE: It may be necessary to pump a small amount of air into
the tank with a bicycle pump to remove all the water
from the tank.
3. When tank is empty, use a pressure gauge to check
tank pressure. An empty tank should contain 5 to 7 psi
pressure. Increase or decrease the air pressure in the tank
accordingly.
4. Open cold water supply. Let system run for 3 hours to fill
tank, then check system performance. If performance has
not improved, call Technical Support.

IMPORTANT:
Read this performance data and compare the capabilities of
this system with your actual water treatment needs.
It is recommended that before installing a water treatment
system, you have your water supply tested to determine your
actual water treatment needs.
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI 58 for the
reduction of substances listed below. The concentration of the
indicated substances in water enteringthe sysem was reduced
to a concentration less than or equal to the permissible limit
for water leaving the system as specified in NSF/ANSI 58.
The GRO-350B/GRO-350M shall only be used for arsenic
reduction on chlorinated water supplies containing detectable
residual free chlorine at the system inlet. Water systems using
an in-line chlorinator should provide a one-minute chlorine
contact time before the RO system.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable
cysts.
NOTE: Substances reduced are not necessarily in your water.
Filter must be maintained according to manufacturer’s
instructions, including replacement of filter cartridges.
The tested efficiency rating for these systems is 22.05%.
Efficiency rating means the percentage of the influent water
to the system that is available to the user as reverse osmosis
treated water under operating conditions that approximate
typical daily usage.
The tested recovery rating is 38.65%. Recovery rating means
the percentage of the influent water to the membrane portion
of the system that is available to the user as reverse osmosis
treated water when the system is operated without a storage
tank or when the storage tank is bypassed.
The GRO-350B/GRO-350M has been tested for the treatment
of water containing pentavalent arsenic [also known as As(V),
As(+5), or arsenate] at concentrations of 0.050 mg/L or less.
This system reduces pentavalent arsenic, but may not remove
other forms of arsenic. This system is to be used on water
supplies containing a detectable free chlorine residual or on
water supplies that have been demonstrated to contain only
pentavalent arsenic. Treatment with chloramine (combined
chlorine) is not sufficient to ensure complete conversion
of trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic. Please see the
Arsenic Facts section of the Performance Data Sheet for
further information.

Arsenic Fact Sheet
Arsenic (abbreviated As) is found naturally in some well
water. Arsenic in water has no color, taste or odor. It must
be measured by a lab test. Public water utilities must have
their water tested for arsenic. You can get the results from
your water utility. If you have your own well, you can have
the water tested. The local health department or state
environmental health agency can provide a list of certified
labs. There are two forms of arsenic: pentavalent arsenic [also
called As(V), As(+5), and arsenate] and trivalent arsenic [also
called As(III), As(+3) and arsenite]. In well water, arsenic may
be pentavalent, trivalent, or a combination of both. Special
sampling procedures are needed for a lab to determine what
type and how much of each type of arsenic is in the water.
Check with the labs in your area to see if they can provide
this type of service. Reverse osmosis (RO) water treatment
systems do not remove trivalent arsenic from water very well.
RO systems are very effective at removing pentavalent arsenic.
A free chlorine residual will rapidly convert trivalent arsenic to
pentavalent arsenic. Other water treatment chemicals such as
ozone and potassium permanganate will also change trivalent
arsenic to pentavalent arsenic. A combined chlorine residual
(also called chloramine) may not convert all the trivalent
arsenic. If you get your water from a public water utility,
contact the utility to find out if free chlorine or combined
chlorine is used in the water system. The GRO-350B/GRO-
350M system is designed to remove pentavalent arsenic.
It will not convert trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic.
The system was tested in a lab. Under those conditions, the
system reduced 0.050 mg/L (ppm) pentavalent arsenic to
0.010 mg/L (ppm)(the USEPA standard for drinking water)
or less. The performance of the system may be different at
your installation. Have the treated water tested for arsenic to
check if the system is working properly. The RO component
of the GRO-350B/GRO-350M system must be replaced every
12-24 months to ensure the system will continue to remove
pentavalent arsenic. The component identification and
locations where you can purchase the component are listed in
the installation/operation manual.

agua que usted consume.
CÓMO FUNCIONA LA ÓSMOSIS INVERSA
El sistema de ósmosis inversa (RO) GRO-350B/GRO-350M utiliza una
membrana semipermeable para reducir las sales y los minerales
disueltos, y así mejorar el gusto y olor de su agua. La membrana RO
está hecha con una película micro delgada bobinada alrededor de un
núcleo central hueco. Las moléculas de agua pueden pasar a través
de la membrana, pero se rechazan las sales y minerales disueltos.
El sistema de ósmosis inversa GRO-350B/GRO-350M cuenta con una
acción de filtro de 3etapas. Su suministro de agua se prefiltra para
reducir la suciedad y el cloro que pueden contaminar la membrana.
La membrana de ósmosis inversa separa esta agua prefiltrada en
AGUA DE PRODUCTO y AGUA RECHAZADA o DE DESAGÜE. La presión
del suministro de agua provoca que el agua de producto pase a través
de la membrana y entre al tanque de almacenamiento. Los sólidos
disueltos y otros contaminantes no pueden pasar a través de la
membrana y son enviados al desagüe como agua rechazada. Cuando
abre la llave de agua potable, el agua de producto se extrae del tanque
de almacenamiento a través de un posfiltro de carbón activado,
brindando así agua más limpia y con mejor sabor.
Por cada litro de agua producida, varios litros se desechan como
agua rechazada. El tanque de almacenamiento puede almacenar
hasta 2.1 galones (7.9 litros) por vez, para beber y cocinar. Cuando
se usan según las Especificaciones de la página 18 del manual, las
membranas de ósmosis inversa deberían durar de 12 a 24 meses.
