2. Setup and Installation
This section provides general guidelines for installing the Aquaguard RO Sensa Tap. For detailed instructions specific to your water purifier model, please refer to your purifier's main user manual.
- Preparation: Ensure the water purifier is turned off and disconnected from the power supply. Close the main water inlet valve to the purifier.
- Remove Old Tap (if applicable): Carefully unscrew or detach the existing tap from the water purifier's dispensing outlet. Be prepared for any residual water.
- Inspect Connection Point: Verify that the connection point on your water purifier is clean and free from debris. The tap is designed for a 15mm diameter connection.
- Install New Tap: Align the new Aquaguard RO Sensa Tap with the dispensing outlet. Gently screw or push the tap into place, ensuring a snug and secure fit. Do not overtighten if screwing, as this may damage the threads.
- Secure Connection: If your purifier model requires additional securing mechanisms (e.g., a back nut or clip), ensure these are properly installed to prevent leaks.
- Check for Leaks: Slowly open the main water inlet valve to the purifier. Turn on the purifier and allow it to fill. Carefully inspect all connections around the new tap for any signs of leakage. If leaks are detected, turn off the water supply, tighten the connection, and re-check.
- Flush the Tap: Dispense a small amount of water through the new tap to flush out any air or manufacturing residue.
