TROUBLESHOOTING
CAUSE
1) WATER SUPPLY IS TURNED OFF.
2) NOT ENOUGH WATER PRESSURE TO
SYSTEM.
3) PREFILTERS CLOGGED.
4) FLUSH VALVE ON UNIT IS IN THE OPEN
POSITION.
1) AIR IN SYSTEM
1) AIR GAP FAUCET
2) LOCATION OF DRAIN SADDLE
3) RESTRICTION IN DRAIN LINE
1) TANK BALL VALVE IS IN THE CLOSED
POSITION.
2) PREFILTERS ARE CLOGGED.
3) MEMBRANE IS FOULED.
4) NO AIR PRESSURE IN TANK.
5) CHECK VALVE ON PRODUCT SIDE NOT
HOLDING.
1) LOW WATER PRESSURE
2) CRIMPS IN TUBING
3) CLOGGED PRE-FILTERS
4) FOULED MEMBRANE
1) POST CARBON IS DEPLETED
2) FOULED MEMBRANE
3) SANITIZER NOT FLUSHED OUT
1) CLOGGED FLOW RESTRICTOR
1) TUBING CONNECTED INCORRECTLY
2) MEMBRANE FAILURE
1) AUTO SHUTOFF NOT CLOSING.
2) CHECK VALVE ON PRODUCT SIDE NOT
HOLDING
3) NO AIR PRESSURE IN TANK
1) FITTINGS ARE NOT TIGHTENED
2) MISSING O-RINGS
3) MISALIGNMENT OF HOLE IN DRAIN
SADDLE
CORRECTION
1) TURN WATER SUPPLY ON.
2) CHECK TO MAKE SURE FEED VALVE IS NOT
CLOGGED.
1) CHECK FEED WATER PRESSURE. MUST BE AT
LEAST 40PSI.
1) CHANGE PREFILTERS.
1) CLOSE THE FLUSH VALVE.
1) AIR IN SYSTEM IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE
WITH INITIAL STARTUP OF THE RO SYSTEM.
THIS MILKY LOOK DISAPPEARS DURING
NORMAL USE WITHIN1 TO 2 WEEKS.
1) NORMAL WITH AIR GAP FAUCET
1) RELOCATE THE DRAIN TO HORIZONTAL
1) BLOCKAGE SOMETIMES CAUSED BY DEBRIS
FROM GARBAGE DISPOSAL OR DISHWASHER
1) OPEN THE TANK BALL VALVE.
1) CHANGE PREFILTERS.
1) CHANGE MEMBRANE.
2) FIND REASON FOR FOULING. TO PREVENT
FUTURE OCCURRENCE.
1) CHECK AIR PRESSURE IN TANK. MUST BE 8-10
PSI WHEN COMPLETELY EMPTY OF WATER.
2) BLADDER IN TANK IS RUPTURED. TANK MUST
BE REPLACED WITH NEW ONE.
1) REPLACE CHECK VALVE ON UNIT.
1) MAKE SURE PUMP IS WORKING
2) MAKE SURE TUBING IS STRAIGHT
3) REPLACE PRE-FILTERS
4) REPLACE MEMBRANE
1) REPLACE POST CARBON
2) REPLACE MEMBRANE
3) DRAIN STORAGE TANK AND REFILL OVER-
NIGHT
1) REPLACE FLOW RESTRICTOR
1) MAKE SURE DRAIN AND PRODUCT LINES ARE
CONNECTED PROPERLY.
1) CHLORINE MAY HAVE PASSED THROUGH
TO MEMBRANE. REPLACE MEMBRANE AND
CHANGE PREFILTERS.
2) MEMBRANE MISHANDLED OR STORED
IMPROPERLY. REPLACE MEMBRANE.
1) REPLACE AUTO SHUTOFF.
1) REPLACE CHECK VALVE.
1) INCREASE AIR PRESSURE IN TANK WHILE
EMPTY TO 6 PSI -7 PSI
1) TIGHTEN FITTINGS AS NECESSARY
2) CONTACT LOCAL DEALER
3) REALIGN DRAIN SADDLE
