Sounds like your problem is with the store you purchased the unit from. I had an issue with a Vertex RO but my LFS took care of it right away and I have no complaints so I'm sure Proline will help you out.

Had mine running for 8 months or so and it is great. No problems at all.

Just an update. Sent pictures of my unit to the rep. He informs me that the unit I purchased was not intended to be sold and was a store demo. So no warranty. How he come to that conclusion is beyond me. It's good that they stand behind their products. Put the blame on someone else. Good support. Well if I have a problem with the Vertex skimmer that I paid $1200 I might as well through it in the garbage. They have lost a customer and I would not recommend any Vertex product due to the customer support.

I've had mine since boxing Day without any Issues. I also have many products that Proline is the wholesaler for and have had no issues dealing with them. IMO they have gone far beyond a wholesalers responcability for me.

J&L and many other carry Vertex, despite your LFS going out of business next time I'd call another LFS that carries the product.
But Albert is on it now so you will be well taken care of

I contacted the manufacturer and they recommended I talk to Jeff at J&L. I'm sorry but it's not Jeff's problem to deal with since it was bought elsewhere. As for Albert being on it and taking care of it...... he's the rep that told me it was a store demo so no warranty. How he figures that I don't know.
