I just got the 3 stage seachem pinnacle ro unit. I hooked the yellow tube up to my hose and turned it on. Water then began to come out of this back tube with a white vaulve cillindar thing on the end. About a minute after that water began to drip out of a blue tube with nothing on it. Which is the good clean water??
Someone please help fast!!
Thanks.

Go with the blue hose. That's the color of the good hose on mine and if that side is coming out slower it is probably right.

Not shur about your model but on most RO units the hose with the most water comeing out of it will be the waste water and the slower tube will be the clean water....

The waste line would have a flow restrictor on it. Kind of long and skinny thingy. Dont you have instruction for it?

nope.. No god damn instructions.. I think it is a flow regulator why would it have that on the waist line?? Its like a thin white thing on the end.. Also what happens if the pressure guage is not getting up that high??
Thanks for your help.

It should be a shut-off valve for the membrane flush. Close it to force water through the membrane and open it to flush the membrane about every 20-30 gallons produced.
