    Glad you got it in one piece.Installation is easy pezzy(LOL)
    Red line-- this is supply line from your tap
    Black line --this is your brine so it goes to the drain
    Blue line-- this is your permite or good water it goes to your stoarge container

    I labeled the bags that filters were in and the DI and filters are less then a month old so if you run the system all going into the drain for awhile you should be all set.This unit has a shutoff on it so if you make a storage tank with a float valve the back pressure will shut the r/o di off so you could plumb it in to a line or if room is an issue Lowes sells an adapter for your faucet.Last readings from the unit was 270 in and 0 ppm out. I did not clean the unit so you might want to mix up some mild bleach water to clean the bowls and houseing then flush it by running it awhile.I left couplars on the end of each line so all you need is some 1/4 inch ice maker line from the hardware.All you have to do is cut the the line square and push it into the couplar and then cut to desired length,As far as putting the di vertical compared to horizontal as the manufactor built it,that's up to you.The unit has a flow check valve in it and the only time I've seen lack of contact time is when the unit is driven off very low pressure.Good luck and have fun.If you need more help LMK
