Q:
What does the 15-gallon rating mean on the Flexwave FWRO15?
A:
It is the tank’s nominal internal volume, not the amount of water delivered at the faucet. Usable drawdown depends on air precharge, RO shutoff pressure, feed pressure, and the system’s operating range.
Q:
What connection does the Flexwave FWRO15 use?
A:
It uses a 1-inch male NPT connection. Match thread size and type, valve or fitting material, and the system’s required flow before ordering.
Q:
How much installation space is needed?
A:
Allow for the tank body, approximately 25.6 inches high, plus the valve, tubing or piping, support, ventilation, and access to the air valve.
Q:
What air pressure should the tank have?
A:
Check precharge with the water side empty and use the tank or RO-system manufacturer’s setting. Do not adjust pressure while the tank contains water.
Q:
Why might the tank deliver less water than expected?
A:
Low feed pressure, incorrect precharge, high shutoff pressure, a restricted membrane or filters, a damaged diaphragm, or an undersized tank can reduce drawdown.
Q:
Can this tank be used with any RO system?
A:
The catalog does not provide an approved model list for Flexwave FWRO15. Match the exact part number, dimensions, connection style, and equipment generation before ordering. Confirm maximum working pressure, connection size, required drawdown, available space, and whether the installation is residential or commercial.
