I need help my new Kinetico K5 is leaking.

The rag I placed under the K5 was wet when I checked the system late this morning. I pulled the system out and opened the side panel and there were...

Yep. Thank you for confirming that, Andy. Membrane rests on r/o water = no TDS creep = peace of mind.

The water technician/rep arrived at the house this morning and tested the quality of the...

Ok the sub-chamber is purified water on standby for flushing, but what about the membrane chamber after purified water flushes it -- does it stay empty or gets filled up with water...and which type,...

Nanu nanu Florida. :)

Have you tried testing the water for TDS right after a long period of standby -- like an hour or two? Was the level the same as when the unit was running normally in between...

Yes, I got all the dimensions and thanks for the link.

Also, I have already set an appointment with our local Kinetico dealer to test our water this Friday.

Fridge lines are 1/4 if the fridge is 10 ft. or less from the r/o and 3/8 if more than 10 ft. to compensate for loss of pressure when running smaller diameter tubing over long distances both...

By the way, don't you think 1 filter before the r/o membrane is enough to protect it from contaminants? Conventional r/o systems normally have a sediment followed by 2 carbon blocks before it. Since...

Thanks for the link and the photo.

I don't really think back pressure would be a problem -- a faucet, no matter if it has a 3/8 or 1/4 connection if you open it partially, you are still...

Wow...thanks for sharing that photo. :) That black tank sure looks like a mini softener tank.

Okay, I want to get this straight. With a Kinetico softener, 10yr. warranty on the membrane and the...

50GPD TFC - positive NOT CTO.

Are you sure about the 10-yr. membrane warranty? That sounds too good to be true I mean no catch or fine prints? There has got to be.

I've been slavin' all day...

Thanks for responding on a Sunday, Andy. I really appreciate it. :)

Basically, the r.o. in the house is always on a short cycle mode - only a glassful is drawn at a time and most of the time in...

Does anyone here know how to prevent TDS creep in the r.o. membrane housing when system is in shut down mode?

I know when concentrate water sits in there for a while it will creep to the other...
