aggieMEDIC Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 So I bought the filters I needed for my rodi system and now I believe I have it set up right but it doesnt seem to be producing any ro water its all waste water. I know the ratio is usually high but I figured I should see something by now. Is soomeone available tomorrow to check out the system and make sure its plumbed right? Also does anyone have a tds meter I could borrow? I bought one from melev at C4 but the ro water I got from the dome reads the same as my tap water, and filtered water from the fridge. Im having trouble believing the numbers are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Can you tell us more about the setup?model and configuration ? A picture would be very helpful as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Marc melev at C4 mentioned when people do this, it might be you should flip the DI filter since it might be in upside down not allowing water. (should have arrows on the little container) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye Field Supply Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 What is the water pressure on your gauge? The suggestion above is a good one - that happens once in a while. The black rubber gasket on the DI cartridge whould be at the top. Does your unit have a flush valve? If so, is it closed? Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I had this when my check valve for the waste line had come out, once it was installed everything worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieMEDIC Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 I bought it from reefer74 back in october or so. Never set it up until now. Bought the di canister from melev as well as all the filters. The di cartridge has rubber Washers on both ends. Ill check to make sure it is installed correctly. This unit didnt have any instructions so I dont know where the check valve is. I dont have a pressure gauge. How do I find out if my RO membrane is bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimmerzs Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 To test you can take out each filter to isolate it to a section. As stated make sure the filters are oriented correctly and if so then try the isolation check. HTH Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
