RODI suddenly not producing water?

[mooputingtong]

Hi guys i recently noticed my rodi water not producing water from blue line. The water only drips little bit from black line(It feels weak) and the blue line produce no water at all. It did work good till today and im not sure whats the problem. The filters are new but i dont have pressure gauge. Is it normal for water pressure to suddenly drop and produce no water at all? This happen to me before in previous apartment too. It produced water for few days and suddenly didnt produce any water. I did have pressure gauge that time and pressure was zero. Im not sure why everytime i move into new place ( Produces water for few days and stopped).

Do you have a bypass valve? Have you checked to make sure it is closed?

Do you mean flush valve? Its completely close.

I would say you have a clog some place.

How do i get it unclogged? Everytime i move into new place it works for a day or two and it suddenly stop producing water. It happend to me twice alrdy.

Pull all the connections make sure they are clear and check the restricter. Thats the most common place for a clog. Been a while since I've had one clogg I'm not sure if its before or after ro membrane

Flow restrictor is after ro membrane and deleting on setup, may be in the flush valve.

can you get a pic of the unit/flush valve?

When you say your filters are new, does that include the membrane? If not, that’s probably your problem.

Have you noticed a drop in faucet water pressure? Less water coming out of the shower?

I took all the ro membrane and filters out before but no has changed. Im not sure what the problem is....

Do you think is the membrane? I did change filters few months ago and havent used since. when i checked ro membrane it looked pretty clean white color. Should i change ro membrane?

The faucet and shower water pressures are the same the weird thing is it worked perfectly fine for few days and suddenly dropped pressure, same thing happened twice already.

That’s what I would do. It has to be either the membrane needs to be replaced, one of your new filters is defective and it’s not allowing water to pass through it, or there’s a blockage in your tubings. How old is the membrane?

Check your membrane. If clean or not clogged, check water source where water enters the unit

How old is your membrane?

About a year and i took membrane out to see if its clogged or dirty few months ago. It looked really clean white.

im on 3rd floor.

Is the source pressure changing?

It might be the membrane or filters? it worked perfectly fine before i changed filter. After changing filter( like 2 weeks later it stopped working). Black tube produces very little water even on flush mode and blue doesnt drip any water at all.
