I have a Pure Freedom 250 gpd RO system. Ive had it for 2 and half years, problem free. Regular flushing and replacement of pre filters.
Now heres the issue. I have recently moved house and since I moved and set up my gear in my new garage the RO filters make a groaning noise. This noise then transmits back down 10m of hose to the outside tap which sits under the kitchen window and is supplied from the cold water feed just under the sink.
This groan, by the time it reaches the kitchen is really loud, infact it is unbearable if you are in the kitchen or the bedroom above.
To solve the problem I have done the following:
1 Replaced the outside tap (no difference)
2 Tried longer / different hose ( noise got worse)
3 Replaced all the pre filters and resin ( made no difference)
4 Run the outside tap on its own unconected to anything ( runs silently, no noise in the kitchen )
5 Removed the shut off valve ( made no difference)
6 Flushed the RO filters a few times and agitated / moved the RO filters to get rid of any air bubbles. ( There was air bubble inside, but getting rid of them had made no difference).
Has anyone encounteted this before, or anything similar?
My other half has threatened that if I cant cure it ill have to go back to ladders and a rag and I really dont want to do that unless I have to.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.
Many Thanks
