Rodi Vibration Noise

[xxxAngeloxxx]

Is it normal for a rodi unit to make a vibration noise after a while? Reason I'm asking it because this morning I woke up to a loud vibration noise coming from rodi. At first it stopped for a while and then 3 minutes later the noise came back again.

Is it the booster pump? Or maybe just the pressure gauge because I know mine is fine when it's making water but when the float valve turns everything off every few minutes my pressure gauge jumps back and forth then stabilizes and does it over and over until the valve opens up again.

No booster pump but I do feel the vibration from the pressure gauge

What you both are experiencing is NOT normal. May be an auto shut off vibrating due to a bad check valve. Would need a little more information to troubleshoot further.

Happens to me once in a while ....when the pressure is built up inside the unit and then the ato needs just a little water to fill your sump..... It's probably your ato opening just a Lil causing the pressure in your ro to vibrate upon exiting or maybe at that point maybe there's air in the unit exiting possibly due to changing filters

I don't think it can't be the filters since there brand new and I got them maybe like 3 months ago.

if i leave the feed to my rodi on while the reservoir is full i hear a vibrating noise every few minutes coming from the ro unit. I thought the reason that i heard it was because the unit was under pressure and the float switch was closed due to the reservoir being full. once i stop the feed source or the reservoir needs to be filled(float switch goes down) the sound stops.

Sometimes when mine vibrates if I turn the flush valve it goes away

Okay for the pass 2-3 days i haven't heard the vibration noise no more has it broke down or stopped working? i have a feeling that im going to have to replace it with a new one correct?

Is it stopping the flow of waste water?

The membrane looks cleaned. I will give customer service a call today after work after i find out which Ro unit I have. If they can't solve my problem i will just order a new one.
