How do you know if your RO tank is bad?
Once the tank is emptied, regulate the pressure to 5-7 psi. If water spurts out when checking for pressure, then the tank’s diaphragm has lost integrity, and the tank should be replaced. If the tank is full and pressure exceeds 20-25 psi, with no water to the faucet, make sure the tank is functioning.
What should I do if my water tank is not working?
Check the main feed valve as well as the tank valve. If those are good, confirm that the tank is under the right amount of pressure. Lack of pressure or too much pressure could prevent RO water from flowing. Clogged filters could also prevent the water from flowing. Replace them if necessary. Also, make sure there are no curved lines.

So taking the impeller out, cleaning it with a paper towel, making sure nothing’s clogged or nothing’s stuck on it, and putting it back in will often free up the filter and get it to work again. Sometimes the impeller gets dislodged. You have to take it out and just reset it. Another thing to look for is evaporation in the aquarium.

If the filter still does not work, check your power source to be sure that is not the issue – if it isn’t, it is likely that there is an issue with your motor. You may be able to purchase a repair kit for your filter on line but it may be easier and less expensive to simply purchase a new filter.
Why is my fish tank filter not pumping water?
Canister filters are very prone to this. Sometimes the air stone will move itself underneath the intake of a filter, and air goes into the filter, sits at the top of the canister filter, and you have an air lock and the canister filter doesn’t work. So you can take the canister filter, open it up, fill it up with water, get it primed again.
