"We bought this tank along with the 3-stage filtration system. It was easy to install (John Guest quick-connect fittings!!) and we have 30 ppm, great tasting water. We are able to get 8 gallons over 10 minutes before the flow rate drops significantly. Would highly recommend this system to anyone with DIY motivation!"
Q:
What does the 14-gallon rating mean on the RO-1070-1/4?
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 RO-1070-1/4 use?
A:
It uses a 1/4-inch male threaded 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 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 RO-1070-1/4. 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.
