Kent Marine Hi-S RO

[freeswimmingfis]

I got a Kent Marine Hi-S RO filter today for free!! It is used but has a new micron and carbon cartridge.
I do not know anything about this unit, it did not have any instructions.
Can someone lend a hand on how this should be connected?
Maybe a pdf instuction manual?

Thanks.

I already seen that, but is a link to download a photo only, not an instruction manual...
Also, how do I know what the GPH is?

This is very close, although mine is not a MAXXIMA HI-S, just a HI-S. It has 2 canisters. This did help though.
So, what do I do with the waste water (the orange hose)? I am prolly going to instal this in a bathroom, so can I put the wast water hose in the sink or toilet?

I have mine hooked up in the bathroom to. The waste water drains into the bathtub and down the drain. I think a sink or tub would be better than the toilet. Just make sure that your orange line is secure so it wont fall out of the sink onto the floor and cause a mess......thats why mines in the tub now.

Mine will be in a 1/2 bath, so no tub. I wonder if the waste can be plumbed into the sink drain?

You can plumb it into a sink drain. I just run mine to my basement drain. The only thing you have to worry about is not creating a lot of back pressure on your R/O system. Basically just make sure the R/O system is a few feet higher than the drain.
