Just got my 6stage system. I’m glad you made this video! I can’t say enough how much I appreciate this video! I haven’t set it up yet because the directions we iffy. That would be my only critique so far, restructure the directions for a better understanding of how to set up the flush valve. Or, include info on finding this video on utube. I tried here as a shot in the dark and got lucky but others might not consider looking for the video. Looking forward to getting it set up soon. Thanx again for an excellent how-to video.
I thought I need the valve open when making water but your detailed video made me run an shut off the waist valve and now I got more pressure. Thank you!
So how often, and for how long, should the RO membrane be flushed while the system is in service? All the video says is to do it for thirty minutes when the system is new.
Wouldn't it be more helpful for your customers if you already had the flow restrict or installed in your manual flush kit so that you don't have to deal with support calls and your customers wouldn't have to worry about getting it working ? I'm not saying that your cheap by not including on, but think of the customers point of view when they buy it thinking it's plug-n-play and it turns out to be play-n-pray?
I have an external style flow restrictor. so I should flush even my current used RO membrane? Do I just remove the water line to the tank and flush it into a bucket? or is this something you do when you install new filters?
Good tip, unfortunately the ready-made home RO filters do not provide for this facility. One has to open the body and bring out a line to install the flush valve. Shall try sometime
I have a drinking water tank. Would I flush the system by running water through the drinking faucet? I mean I assume so, because that is the only way I can run it unless I use the di water line I have for an aquarium! I just want to confirm I understand right.
I installed a flush kit , but nothing was coming out of the drain tube. I figured out the automatic shutoff valve must be opened by draining part of your holding tank, than it will flush. Please let me know if I am correct.
How do you flush when asv is activated? Isn’t input water shutoff? I’m having this issue where open flush valve wont flush when system is not making water. If ro is making water, then opening the valve does flush. Any idea what is wrong with my installation? I do have a booster pump right before membrane.
I'm not a pro, but you can get your ASV to operate, so you can flush, by shutting the ball valve on your pressure tank and opening the RO faucet. Then open the flush valve to bypass the restrictor and flush.

my restrictor was the elbow fitting and not in the hose. I just removed the elbow and I was able to flush. The elbow fitting was marked 60G
Does the booster pump need to turn on to flush or ther is a pump bypass and flush using source water pressure? Sorry just trying to figure it out..
I have a permeate pump on my RO system. Were do you recommend I install the flush valve, upstream or downstream from the permeate pump?
What the effect of instal check valve to drain line? Mine has check valve on drain line.. in this video just manual flush.

How often you have to flush it.
This was super helpful. I did this setup for my RO system so that the membrane can last a lot longer. Thanks!
