I'm having issues with my 5 stage RODI system with drinking water add-on. As of right now, I do not have the DI caniser plumbed in, but just the sediment, 2 x carbon block and 2 x 75gpd RODI membranes and the 2 gallon pressurized tank going to a RO faucet (non-airgap)
What I have noticed is that when the tank gets full, the back pressure will make the unit start to make a wierd whining noise. It will kind of go on and off, then the unit pressure will kick back on, like I turned the supply line back on. I had to keep the supply line off to make it not make that noise.
I was told it was the auto-shutoff valve, so I got another one. When I hooked the new one up and turned it on, there was a different sound and water was pouring out of the drain line.
This video is with the new auto shut off valve and the water on, drinking tank full. The sound at the end, when I turn off the red supply line valve, is what it would do before the new auto shut off was installed.
I am hoping I can leave the supply line on all the time and it wont make any noise or have waste water pouring out when the drinking tank is full. I also bought a new check valve elbow for before he auto shutoff valve, like in the instructions, but havent installed it yet
