Merlin system
« on: August 02, 2009, 01:16:00 pm »
Can anyone give me a bit of advise please?
I've just bought a 2nd hand Merlin system and put brand new filters in. The TDS reading was 117 after i had flushed it out for several hours. I've just took it apart and re-instated the filters. But i'm getting a reading for pure water of 235. the tap water reading is 326 whilst the waste water is 356. Im absolutly baffled can anyone shed any light  ???

many thanks

check the rubber o rings that the membranes are seated in, they could be kinked or damaged, if they are go to a local plumbing center they should have some replacable ones that size.

may sound daft, but are you checking waste or pure?

I am experiencing similar problems with mine, and in my case it's down to low water pressure, so i need to source a suitable pump, or sack it off and buy a hf5, looking to do the latter.

What pressure do you have on your tap?
