Troubleshooting Common Water Purifier Issues

Education


Welcome to our podcast where we discuss the most common water purifier problems and their solutions. Proper maintenance can extend the life of your water purifier, but after 4 to 5 years, issues may arise. Today, we'll focus on five common problems and how to address them.

Episode Content:

  1. Unusual Water Taste or Smell:
  • Cause: Accumulation of biofilm in the water purifier.
  • Solution: Replace clogged filters or membranes every 12 months to improve taste and odor.
  • Note: Metallic taste may indicate an issue with copper tubing; a salty taste requires professional maintenance every 6 months.
  1. Slow Water Flow:
  • Cause: Low volume, low water pressure, or a malfunction in the water storage tank.
  • Solution: Ensure proper water pressure (40-60 PSI), check for bladder leakage in the tank, and replace clogged filters for optimal flow.
  1. Noisy Faucet:
  • Cause: Air being pushed out of the system or changes in water pressure.
  • Solution: After filter replacement, if noise persists, check tubing installation or the tank's valve closure. Consult a professional if needed.
  1. Water Leakage:
  • Cause: Incorrectly fitted parts or worn-out O-rings in the faucet, filter, or membrane.
  • Solution: Identify and replace ill-fitted parts, and ensure O-rings are in good condition. Call a service engineer for assistance.
  1. RO Water Tank Doesn't Fill Up:
  • Cause: Extremely low water pressure or a damaged RO membrane.
  • Solution: Increase water pressure with a pump if below 40 PSI. Replace a clogged or damaged RO membrane annually for optimal water quality.

Conclusion:

Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your water purifier functions smoothly. By addressing these common issues promptly, you can enjoy clean and healthy drinking water. Stay tuned for more tips on maintaining your home appliances.
