Issues with ro/di

[findingnemo1]

Okay so yes the water coing out is pretty cold as it is hooked into my cold water supply.. So how do i hook it up so i get warmer water?

I don't think you can, you don't want it coming out of your hot water tank.
You could do what I did but that's not really a long-term solution.

Okay we'll i dunno but really i am getting a little irritated

Considering they advertise this thing to do about 4 gallons and hour when it is not freezing outside i don't get it.

It is hooked up to my cold water pipe but how can you control the temp of that? YOu can't. And my god it is pretty warm outside ...lol

Is there anyone in Calgary with one of these units that can either send pics or pop by to see if it is hooked up right?

As there instructions are so lame you can't really make sure it is running properly or not.....

grrrrr.

Sounds like you need a booster pump. OR you have a lot of stuff in your water. Typically an RO unit produce "good water/bad" in 1:8 ratio using house pressure alone and 1:3 using a booster pump.

We'll the problem is that i had another r/o hooked up the same way and had no issues although it was less gallons per day.

The new thing is i have now put 20 gallons through it and 2 of the 3 di are now black. So out of 20 gallons that exhausted 2 of my di resins. The tds in Calgary isn't that bad....

Apprently something is not right...

the easiest way to run warmer water through is to use the faucet adapter instead.

Hey i have your hose to. I will drop it off today

But the problem is now that the di cartridges are now black already. I ran it all night long and they are now all black. I don't get it ...
