I got my water softener installed and it went beautifully. I had a lot of help programming it from the members on here. Now I did my RO system, and I am about to throw it out the window.
I have a Springsoft 5-stage RO, and I got it all hooked up. I know nothing about the operation of these things, so diagnosing is very difficult. Basically, the water trickles drop by drop into my tank and sprays heavily into the drain. Even when I close the tank, it flows down the drain and does not shut off. After about 6 hours, I had 2.5 gallons in my tank.
I checked the pressure in my tank and it is at about 7 psi. I took apart the ASO valve and everything looked good in there. When I blow in the "IN" valve of the high pressure side, it is pretty restricted but air does go through. The amount of water going into the drain vs into the tank seems a lot higher than 3:1 to me. I don't know what the heck is wrong with this thing. There is no way I can have it blowing that much water down the drain 24/7.
Thanks,
Doug
