About the Course:

This RO Installation microcredential trains technicians to properly install, connect, and test reverse osmosis (RO) water purification systems in residential and light commercial settings. 

Learners will practice real-world installation techniques including water supply connection, drain line installation, filter assembly, membrane setup, leak prevention, pressure verification, and system testing. The course emphasizes precision, safety, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines to ensure efficient and reliable RO system performance. 

Technicians will gain hands-on experience in installing RO systems, minimizing installation errors, and ensuring optimal water purification efficiency and long-term system reliability. To learn more, technicians can further develop residential water system and installation skills through hands-on plumbing technician training focused on real-world plumbing workflows.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify different types of RO systems and their installation requirements
  • Safely prepare the installation area and gather necessary tools and materials
  • Install and connect water supply lines to the RO system 
  • Properly install filters, membranes, storage tanks, and shut-off valves
  • Follow manufacturer instructions for positioning and securing RO components
  • Connect drain lines and ensure proper water flow and pressure
  • Check for leaks and verify secure fittings and tubing connections
  • Test the RO system to confirm proper filtration and water production
  • Perform system flushing and initial startup procedures
  • Ensure safe and hygienic installation practices throughout the process

Course delivered via LMS and requires an Oculus VR headset for hands-on VR simulations.
