RO Question

[thrawn150RT]

I am replacing my membrane and rest of the filters for first time since I bought the system. THe 3 housings for the filter say sentiment then prefilter and prefiler. is a Carbon Block Cartridge the same as a prefilter? I have two coral life Carbon Block Cartridges.

[shifty51008]

yes carbon are prefilters

Thanks. I am also retubing this. It had a taste oder remover on it. I am making the prefilter go into the ceneter of the membrane housing and the other end go to the di filter. Also the second connection on the membrane is going to sink.

Prefilter = all the filters that treat the feedwater before the water reaches the membrane.

Typically this includes, in order or water contact, 1 sediment filter and 1 carbon filter.

Two carbon prefilters typically are not needed, unless you have chloramines in your tap water.

I just turned it on with the new membrane and the filters all replaced and I could hear the canisters filling but no waste water and nothing through the membrane reaching the di chamber. I did make sure water is making it to the Memebrane chamber.

Also Is this ro unit put together correctly?

No - looks like it is plumbed wrong. Can you give us a call when you are in front of the system?
