I like this RO system because it does not rely on proprietary filters, instead the unit uses industry standard housings, filters, and plumbing. This means you can buy parts anywhere and not be beholden to the manufacturer. I've installed two of these units and they are of good quality.

Great instructions. Thank you. I have never installed a RO system but have my first install scheduled tomorrow. I feel much more confident.
I put my RO90 in the basement under my kitchen sink. I bought the 10 gallon tank with it. Have had it since 2005 lovr it
Very Helpful video Thank you
Good shit. Wife was asking me about looking into one and I came across your channel.
Nice RO kit. I have a 6 stage kit remote mounted in my basement. Around 35ft of tubing away from system to kitchen faucet. I also run my ice maker off it on my fridge. I know not everyone can remote mount them but if you can do it. I would rather service it standing up vs laying down to service it.
nice neat hookup had the water tested today reading was 42 ppm. there coming tomorrow to install a osmosis system after watching you install it. pretty easy
they installed a 5 filter os system but after the fine print was read it was going to cost 43 bucks a month for 15 years. called them back come take it out they dropped the system 900 bucks had it to 27 bucks a month. it cost us 217 bucks for removal but they gave us all kinds of soap dish liquid dish powder 2 big square buckets 24x4 liter containers laundryy and hand and window and shampoo so because we had tried a very small amount of the soaps we would have to bye it 300.00 bucks. so 517 bucks later lesson learned next day ordered a 6 filter system from amazon 285+tax. the holes were already there mounted in basement under sink works great
My bag of tricks is filled with green and smells funny!
Thank you. Good instructions. 😊
Thank you very much, Thank you very much :-))) and Thank you very much.
Would be good to know flow rate with vs without the pump.
I have the same one. Love it! No booster pump though, Im okay there
Thank you so much!
Is it still leveled? Looks tilted once u installed it.
I installed similar RO system a few days ago with pump but the pump do not stop. Please explain when the pump has to stop?
Is this for a saltwater aquarium?
Am I going to need a automatic shut off valve for this unit? Or does the pressure switch this unit has replace that?
You don't need anything other than what's in the kit, I believe is has a solenoid valve, if I remember correctly, this is the best system.
herb, what was the last water test you did on the system? You never said. Ty for the video.
Sure it was 38ppm. The city water is 638ppm. It most likely fell slightly more after it ran for a few days. It's at a customer's house so I haven't checked since.
@@HerbOMatic Herb, thank you for the answer! I have a water filter pitcher which I have two test kit things for it. My water pitcher has 00.00 no solids in it. They said when it gets to .03 I should change out the walter filter on it. So far it is working pretty well, I should be able to go through about 40-50 filters of water before it needs changed or so they tell me. I was surprised my husband's bottled water had .83 solids in it. Tap water has about .93 in it. 38ppm isn't too bad though, I would say it should get to 00 after it takes a while to work itself through.
RYOBI Represent!
Mine has no tank it’s a box that you put under the cabinet it has a faster pump but more noisier
Do you really need that tank to keep the water in it or just directly to the faucet.
You need the tank because the system makes water very slowly and stores it in the tank until you need it. If you ran it directly it would take 10 minutes to fill a glass.
That tank is called a "head" tank. It allows the system to fill a bladder within the tank and the water will come out at a constant pressure of air on the other side of the bladder.
Noted. Thanks
Does this have tds creep like the permate pump?
No, it's far superior
I'm sure you realized your mistake by now. The way you organized your hoses, you'll never get the filter assembly out without disconnecting the hoses
And I hate slicing my arms on sharp cut zip ties. Lol.
Scoring with knife or flush cutters work best.
41:25 53 is bad for reverse osmosis filter. It should be around 5.
It came down as the membrane ran.
@@HerbOMatic Ok! :)
I love to butcher the English language for fun, but what kind of wrench is that. It is not a French pastry wrench. Overall, good instruction. thanks
Croissant wrench?
Those saddle valve kits never stayed sealed. It's usually years down road they start leaking.
Croissant Wrench - must be a French tool.
garbage is good to waste your money
