FYI, the very last step is to TURN ON the cold water supply and RO faucet lever for 10-15mins while the tank ball valve remains CLOSED to normal water stream to relieve built-up pressure inside the RO.
Hello, I did this but my water pressure is very weak. Any advice ?
Thanks for the insight!
Hope I don't mess my Kangen up
GOD BLESS YOU for making this so easy! And! Short, sweet and to the point. You're the BEST.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for this video! Got right to the point !
You're welcome!
I’m going to go ahead and thank you for making this easy to follow video. 😜
You're welcome
I'll be looking for more videos like this (mine is a 7 stage system so I'll need to know what other filters need to be done, and when), but this is good to know. Currently, the company that installed mine comes out once a year and it costs me over $300 for the service. I've had the unit since 2012 and the water is insanely good. It actually made me want to drink more water. But I feel like I'm getting soaked on these $300+ replacement visits.
I agree, having an RO system like this is very beneficial. I encourage you to look into maintaining it yourself, its much cheaper to buy and replace the filters yourself
(6/25/22) Thank you - saved me a lot of time.
You're welcome
Hahaha I waited 11 months to use to video. Thanks.
You're welcome!
Thank you for sharing this helpful video 🙏
You're welcome
It might be helpful showing which filter goes into 1st 2nd and 3rd stage.
True, I should have shown more detail in this area. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you very much
You're welcome
Perfect. Thank you!
You're welcome
To the point , precise steps and clear quality video. Are these same steps for something like proline ez series roi filter change as well?
Thank you. Unfortunately, I do not know much about the other model of filter you mentioned. Maybe others reading this comment can provide some insight
Thank you, thank you, thank you ! Quick and easy.
You're welcome
Very helpful. Ty
Your welcome
Thank you.
You're welcome
You are turning clockwise to unscrew - I'm assuming you are in the US. Is it opposite for Australia? Legit question.
Housings are stuck can’t do anything how do I get them unstuck?
Sometimes it's because there is pressure in the system. To release pressure, turn off the main water supply and also open the faucet
Thanks!
You're welcome
Thank you 😊
You're welcome
Do you need to repurge your system once filters are replaced?
APEC doesn’t suggest it unless you change the membrane filters.
Yes
Did you ever make the video of comparing the tap water with the reverse osmosis system water?
I did actually... It should be in my channel
I got a small yellow and black stem that goes inside one of the tubes but I don't know which lol
Were you able to find out where it belongs?
@@ChrisAsipyan it's a flow restrictor that goes on the drain waste tube
Do you need to flush the system a few times if you’re only replacing the first 3 filters?
Yes
How do you do this?
@@ChrisAsipyanHow do you do this?
@@Spreadlove5683 to flush the system a few times, it's pretty simple. Once it's working normally and you are getting water out of it, just let the tank fully fill up, then just open the faucet and let it all drain out. Let it fill up and drain it all out like 2 or 3 times
before you connect the carbon to the membrane run some water thru them, it will keep a lot of carbon fines from going thru the membrane, it will help to save the membrane
When do you use the Molykote 111 compound?
Unfortunately, I'm unfamiliar with that particular compound. Will need to look it up.
@@ChrisAsipyan its not food grade (Molykote 111 compound)
how long you have to let the water run after the replacement
I like to fill and fully empty the reservoir tank twice before using the water.
I didn’t think you had to do that for replacing the first three. Just the membrane filters
I just change6 filters and new tank and I hear water coming to filters then stops and my tank doesn't fill up HELP!!!
u ever figure it out?
Were you able to figure it out? I'm thinking it would have been the valve above the tank being closed
How to change the filter at the top? It is connected with those tiny tubes and I cannot plug them out to change the filter....
Push the rings on the filters in and then pull the tubes out. It's very easy.
Thanks to the other RUclipsr for providing insight!
Hello, we have followed all steps, but tank does not seem to filling
That's unfortunate. Have you been able to solve the issue?
Which filters go in which canisters?
All the canister housings are the same, what really matters is what order the filters are installed. I got this confused myself at first, fixed it soon after the install. :)
@@ChrisAsipyan So what's the order? How do I know?
Followed this...now when I'm starting thr system..water starts leaking from the first filter
Change the O ring in that housing.
Make sure the o-ring is correctly in it's place and nothing is pushing against that canister
Wait so if those 3 things are the filters then what are the smaller ones above it?
That is stage 4 and stage 5... High flow membrane and the carbon filter. Those would need to be replaced every 2 to 4 years
The housings on mine are STUCK stuck. I think it has to do with pressure.
My exact problem as well. Had been changing them before and now they are just stuck. I even tried leveraging with hammer on the wrench. No budge on either of the three.
Try letting the pressure out by shutting the water off and opening the faucet
I guess I'm not anybody. Water everywhere hahah
Same...😮
:) it happens
what if i dont have that wrench ?
You can find it on Amazon here: amzn.to/3Pp4Pk3
This video Doesnt help, I am stuck at step 1 which is opening the housing. Why is so tight? i am rotating clockwise as viewed from top. And I am using a hammer but its not buzzing
Make sure there is no pressure in the system. Turn off the water at the main valve and also open the faucet as well. Doing this should relieve the pressure.
missed the membrane Filter?
I did get the order of the filters wrong in this video. Thanks for pointing it out, it helps us all correctly install this RO system!
Say easy. But I tried to open didn’t easy. So hard to turn to open champer
There might be pressure in the system. Try to turn the water off at the valve and open the faucet to relieve pressure first
Doesn't seem like an act of god.. not sure what other folks were saying that made it sound so difficult
Installing an RO system seems difficult at first, but it's not really all that bad.
Not a good video at all you don't show which filters go in what stage canisters you put them in way to fast
I hope you were able to get your RO system installed.
