The bottled water stacked in a New River garage has spent the summer in heat that would make a plastic lawn chair sag. Reverse osmosis is the cheaper, better-tasting alternative, made fresh under the sink as you use it. We install it with its own faucet, often alongside other kitchen plumbing work, and show you what the filters look like when they’re due.
Water in New River arrives carrying roughly 15 to 20 grains of dissolved mineral per gallon. That is chemistry, not gossip, and it settles in the bottom of every tank and the throat of every valve in town. Run the numbers for your own house and most questions about this kind of work start answering themselves.
If you already have a system, a pocket TDS meter, which reads total dissolved solids, will tell you how it’s doing. Test the regular tap, then the RO faucet. A healthy membrane removes the large majority of dissolved solids, so the second number should be a small fraction of the first. If it’s creeping toward the tap reading, the membrane is spent. Slow flow from the RO faucet usually means clogged prefilters or a storage tank that has lost its air charge.
Signs the system needs service
The RO faucet trickles
Slow flow usually means clogged prefilters, a fouled membrane, or a tank that has lost its air charge. All three are fixable, typically in one visit.
That taste is back
Chlorine or a musty note in RO water means the carbon stages are spent. Change them before the chlorine reaches the membrane.
A TDS reading close to the tap’s
The membrane has stopped rejecting much of anything. Membranes wear faster on hard water, and a spent one looks perfectly normal from the outside.
Water running to the drain all night
A steady trickle under the sink long after the tank should be full points to a failed shutoff or check valve. The system keeps producing, and wasting, around the clock.
Drips inside the cabinet
Filter housings, tubing connections, and the drain saddle are the usual sources. Particleboard cabinet floors swell fast, so it’s worth a look whenever the trash goes out.
When were the filters last changed?
If nobody in the house knows, it has been too long. Prefilters generally want changing about once a year, more often on hard or well water.
