Hi everyone,
I changed out the ro membrane on my kent marine 3 stage RODI unit. When I put the new membrane in (the correct way) and screwed on the cap everything looked good. Then I turned on the water and everything looked good until the water pressure in the ro started to rise. Around 40 psi water started to spray out of the tiny crack where the housing screws closed. Believe me I screwed that thing down tight.
I took the housing back apart and looked at the gasket or o-ring inside the lid. Looks like that o-ring is done for. I took it to home depot and ace hardware and neither had it. I'm going to a plumbing supply store tomor but any idea where I can just order the correct gasket?
thanks
