Your reverse osmosis system contains replaceable treatment components that are critical for effective contaminant reduction. Periodic inspection and following proper system maintenance is critical for continued performance. Membrane Maintenance RO Membranes have a life expectancy between 2 and 5 years, depending on the incoming water conditions and the amount the RO system is used. This reverse osmosis membrane is critical for effective reduction of total dissolved solids (TDS).
Check Air Pressure in the Tank Important: Check air pressure only when tank is empty of water! Check air pressure in the storage tank when you notice a decrease in available water from the RO system. Air can be added with a bicycle pump using the schrader valve that is located on the lower side of the tank behind a blue plastic cap. Step 1 Turn off the incoming cold water supply to the RO at the adapt-a-valve clockwise until it stops.
