    So, I hooked this system up in a shed connected to a garden hose but idk if I did it correctly. The instructions didn’t really mentions which lines and ports on the system were which, just where to hook them up for a sink install. I was wondering if you had any info on which line is good water and which is waste. I assumed the red tube was waste and mine came with 2 3/8 blue tubes. One in the FAUCET port, the other in the TANK port

      Depends on how much water pressure you have. I think mine is normally about a hour.

    Hi Jim I have the same exact reversed osmosis system like yours. After changing all filters and membrane it keep having sucking air noise from the faucet hole ( AIR RELEASE ?). for 3 days. Then I bought a brand new tank also I took all filters out again to double check make sure everything are in place. It looks really good. However, the sucking air noise is still there from faucet ( spigot). Then I went to Home depot get myself a new faucet put it in and the problem is NOT going away. Any suggestion . TIA

    is that a filter that needs changed? thanks Chris

    • @DIYJIM
      @DIYJIM  3 роки тому +3

      It is the membrane filter it gets changed every 2 -5 years. Depending on the incoming water conditions and the amount of the reverse osmosis system is used if you notice a reduction in water production or an unpleasant taste you may need to replace your membrane. I will be making a video probably Jan or February changing my membrane. So if your subscribed keep watching my channel. Hope this helps.
