They will probably send the parts you need right away. This reverse osmosis shouldn't be running constantly. The water should only run for up to 10 minutes after you have used it. call the manufacture. They will probably send the parts you need right away.

My water bill went way up last month . I notice it runs like all the time and the amount of water it wastes is about 1000 to one . Is this the fault of the unit ? I did like the unit for the first 2 months but now I feel something is broke or faulty . Please tell me what to do !!!! Should I bring it back to Lowes ? I do see it is guarenteed for a year .

Try getting a hold of the manufacture's technical help and not a sales person. They will probably know right away. Sorry I’m not sure what it could be.

If the tank isn't filling up you may have low water pressure or the tank could be over pressurize. You can check the tank pressure with a tire gauge but you'll have to call the manufacturer and ask what the pressure should be. Best of Luck!
