Installation Instructions for Your Water Filter

24 Jun 2025

Reverse osmosis systems have become indispensable in modern water treatment. They offer an efficient method to remove unwanted substances from tap water and guarantee clean drinking water. Although installing such systems may seem complex at first glance, you can master this process with the right instructions and sufficient manual skill. In this article, we offer you detailed step-by-step instructions for installing your water filter.

1. Preparation

Check scope of delivery:

Before you begin, you should check all parts in the scope of delivery. This ensures that you don't suddenly discover something is missing during installation.

Determine installation location:

The ideal location for installation is usually under the sink. There is enough space here, and the system is easily accessible.

Observe water conditions:

The system functions optimally when the temperature and pressure requirements of the water are met. Inform yourself in advance about these requirements.

2. Faucet installation

Install 1-way faucet:

A hole must be drilled in the sink or countertop for the special reverse osmosis system faucet. Most 1-way faucets for reverse osmosis systems require a standard 12 mm diameter bore in the sink or countertop for installation.

Install 3-way faucet:

Installing a three-way faucet can be simple and smooth with a little manual know-how. However, before you begin the process, you should definitely turn off the water supply to prevent possible mishaps. Equipped with the right tools, especially an adjustable wrench and, if necessary, WD40 to loosen stubbornly stuck parts of the old faucet, removing the old faucet will be a breeze. Then it's time to install the 3-way faucet. Here, you route the hoses of the new faucet through the designated opening in the sink and fix it stably from below. Then you connect the hoses for cold and hot water to the respective connections. The third hose is specifically for filtered water. After installation, you should restore the water supply and test all functions of the faucet. If everything is tight and works perfectly, you can be happy about the successful installation of your 3-way faucet. This allows you to access both filtered and conventional tap water from one and the same faucet. If you have any questions or need support, experts are available to help you.

3. Connection to the water supply

Install shut-off valve:

The included shut-off valve is connected to the cold water valve. This allows you to shut off the water supply to the system if necessary.

Take safety precautions:

The pressure reducer and water stop are important safety components. They prevent damage from excessive pressure or water leakage. Please make sure that you install a high-quality water stop that really cuts off the water supply in the event of a water leak and does not just emit an acoustic signal, as such a leak is theoretically possible at any time.

4. Installation of filters and membranes

Install pre-filter:

The pre-filter protects the membrane from larger particles and should be installed first. In good systems, these are usually already built into the system and therefore do not need to be installed separately – so you can skip this step.

Insert reverse osmosis membrane:

The membrane is the heart of the system and requires special attention during installation. Make sure it is seated firmly and all connections are tight. In good systems, this is usually already built into the system and therefore does not need to be installed separately – so you can also skip this step.

5. Connecting the pipes

Lay pipes:

The pipes are connected to the corresponding connections of the system according to the instructions. Make sure that they are not kinked and that the recommended bending radius is observed, as otherwise they can become leaky. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the type of plug connections beforehand so that you use them correctly and no leaks occur. These are usually briefly explained in the instructions.

6. Flushing the system

First flush:

After installation, you should let 20-30 liters of water flow through the system. This removes any residue from production or installation. Please note that with some systems, individual parts must first be flushed before further parts are installed. This is to ensure, for example, that no residues from the membranes get into the energization or that a germ barrier becomes clogged directly.

7. Final check

Check for leaks:

Check all connections for possible leaks. This ensures that no water leaks out and the system functions correctly. Be sure to take enough time to check whether your water filter system is properly connected – this will save you high costs in case of doubt.

Test water quality:

Take a moment to taste the filtered water. It should taste fresh and pure.

A contract is not yet concluded at this point. Orders placed are binding for the customer. Unless explicitly acknowledged otherwise, there is no right of return or withdrawal for the customer. The contract is only concluded upon acceptance by Blue Nature Services or (implicitly) by dispatching the ordered goods. Orders will only be delivered after full payment has been received (exception: delivery against invoice) and if the goods are available. If, after the conclusion of the contract, it turns out that the ordered goods cannot be delivered or cannot be delivered in full, Mein-Wasserfilter is entitled to withdraw from the entire contract or a part of the contract. If the customer's payment has already been received by Blue Nature Services, the payment will be refunded to the customer in full or proportionally. If no payment has yet been made, the customer will be released from the payment obligation. Blue Nature Services is not obliged to provide a replacement delivery in the event of a contract termination. 5. Payment options and retention of title The customer has the payment options indicated in the ordering process available to them. Blue Nature Services reserves the right to exclude customers from individual payment options or to insist on prepayment without stating reasons. Blue Nature Services may charge default interest of 5% per year and a reminder fee of Euro 20.- per reminder in case of late payment by the customer. The customer expressly acknowledges the costs for collection and default damages charged by Blue Nature Services. The products delivered to the customer remain the property of Blue Nature Services until full payment has been received. Blue Nature Services reserves the right to withhold further deliveries or to refuse them entirely in case of non-acceptance of ordered goods or late payment. In such cases, the customer agrees to compensate Blue Nature Services for the damage caused thereby. The customer will only choose the "Payment by invoice" option if they are willing and able to correctly adhere to the payment deadline specified on the invoice and to pay the invoice amount in full. Otherwise, the customer will choose the "Credit card", "Prepayment", or "PayPal" payment option. If the customer chooses the "Payment by invoice" option and does not pay the invoice, the customer expressly accepts the accusation of deliberately causing damage to Blue Nature Services with all the resulting legal consequences and costs. 6. Delivery, inspection obligation, notice of defects, and returns Deliveries are usually sent by post or courier service to the address specified by the customer in the order. Invoicing is done by email or by post. The benefit and risk pass to the customer upon dispatch, as far as legally permissible.
