I just picked one of these up today... slightly used. Since my water pressure upstairs isn't all that great, I've been making water in the basement, then carrying it up to the first floor, catching my breath, then going on upstairs with it. Now I won't have to since I got this unit. Here are my questions-
1 - It had some water in it that smelled nasty. I've run it for about 30 minutes, flushed it several times... TDS is bouncing between 0 and 1. Is it safe to assume now that the smell is gone that all is well, or should I change out the membrane and filters just for the heck of it? The previous owner said it hadn't had much water made through it.
2 - How the heck do I set up an auto shut off on this thing? I turned the water supply off and the pump kept running... so I'm guessing a standard float valve won't work. I pulled the plug on the pump and it stopped the water, giving me the impression that a float switch would be appropriate for this unit.
I've tried finding the answers to both of these questions with little help. There's hardly any info out there on this unit... and not sure that stinky water from an ro/di unit is a common thing haha.
