Hi peeps. After losing my old RO to the cold over the last couple o days, i decided to buy a new 200gpd last night. All connected up now but i do have a slight leak going on. I'm gonna try and attech a picture in the hope that one or two of ya can tell me if i can sort this one out or whether i'll have to take it back to the place i got it. The leak isn't where the green hits white, it's coming down from the bend where white hits white, if that makes sense. Please 'elp x x x
-
get some PTFE tape and remove the bend, wrap some PTFE tape around the thread and screw it back in
job done
-
Matt, ya always there for me..ya know that? ? ? :-* You don't know you are, but you are lol........... How do i disconnect it matt? I don't wanna force anything..........
-
Yer what matt says is spot on PTFE should sort all probs out, i use it on all joints.
-
Thread......got it...................sorted......cheers lads ;)
-
put it on all threads as youll end up getting another leak sometime
-
already have mate............on another joint..can't be bothered to do it now...............first thing in the morn...........promise lol.
-
Ok as promised, i PTFE'd all the joints this morning...........No leaks.....from the joints :) But i am from the top of the 2 filter housings :( I noticed it came with"two"filter seals(one black/one white) in each housing. But it leaked when using the two, so i took one out from each filter housing and it's "still" leaking slightly. I dont understand it.... I'm tightening the joints well, but not too tight..... Do i need 2 seals per housing??????????? It's an RO man 200gps system............Any help,soooo appreciated. Thanks, Dino

RO-Man changes the specification of the filter housing fairly regularly, so it would be best to give them a ring on 01823 698813 and they should be able to help, or email them on helpdesk@ro-man.com
(Moderators am I still allowed to post links to other retailers or not?)

thanks alex.............will do that later........like i said.........2 seals,one black one white...different widths...........all a bit strange.............i'll try swapping around later to see what happens..ta again....must rush ;)

I would have thought so. Its not your own link and your not advertising anything from it.

mine are like this
1 is for the inside bit of the housing and the other is for the outer
