Is the water actually going into the bottom two chambers? Hard to say but it may just be going through the top chamber and then getting dumped out?
None at the moment

The wastewater is the blue line.
If nothing is coming out of the other, not even a few drops, bring the unit to me tomorrow and we'll figure it out. I suspect the Membrane is fouled.
Where did you get this unit?

EmbarrassedWell, first I must admit that I had forgotten which line was which. If I had not been so lazy I would have gotten up off my easy chair and walked over to my RO unit to remind myself which one is the waste line. Wacko

Anyway, Matt and I found that the reason there was so much water flowing out of the pure water line was because the Membrane is old and breaking down. It's letting more water through larger holes. The TDS should be 0-20 but instead it's 140 ppm. Time for a new membrane.
I would also check the Restrictor piece, that's the little black tube on the waste side, to be sure it's not totally clogged.
