Setup my BRS RODI 7 stage 75gpd system today - it started filling up each canister and even had waste water draining for about 15min but now I got nothing - no waste water, no RO water …. Clog somewhere? Where do I start? And how?
 
Oh looks like it’s with the auto-shutoff float thing —- I lifted it up manually and water started coming out … uhhh I thought up from the water pushing up on it was OFF?

My guess would be the tubing may not be set up correctly. Do you have any pictures to show your setup? The other thing could be a clog in the tube but if your tubing is new that seems unlikely.
 
Is it upside down?
Hahah yup - working now!

Qq though I have a little pump that is going to pump water from the ro to the salt water container … but what turns on the pump? Do people just manually plug it in or am I missing something?

I have a pump that circulates all the time, but there are valves that can open the freshwater side to pump the water to the salt side. Here is mine but if Google ‘salt mixing stations’ you will see some other designs.

the left side is fresh water and the right is salt.
