What to do if Purifiner Aerobica PDAF-1 054 provides untreated water to service?

M
Mrs. Jill Clark DDSJul 31, 2025
If your Purifiner Water Filtration System is delivering untreated water, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure that the bypass valve is closed. The capacity of filter media may be exhausted - in this case replace the filter bed. Also, check if there's a leak between the rotor and seal disk, and replace them if necessary. Verify the riser tube is correctly seated and not cracked. Finally, synchronize the valve body and timer if they are out of sync.
