## Namaste Morbi & Rajkot! Dilipbhai Here from Shivam Water Solution
If you turn on your RO purifier faucet and only get a tiny, slow trickle of water instead of a steady flow, you are not alone. Here in Morbi—the ceramic capital of India—and across neighboring Rajkot, low water pressure and slow filling speed are among the most frequent issues domestic water purifier owners face.
With over 10 years of hands-on experience installing, servicing, and repairing domestic RO units as well as industrial commercial plants, I at **Shivam Water Solution** have seen every RO problem imaginable. High TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) in groundwater across Saurashtra plays a huge part in clogging filters early and slowing down your system.
In this guide, I will walk you through why your RO purifier has low water pressure, how you can troubleshoot basic issues yourself, and when it is time to call in an expert technician.

## Why Does RO Water Flow Become Slow in Morbi & Rajkot?
Our borewell water in regions like Vajepar, Ravapar, Shanala Road in Morbi, or University Road in Rajkot often carries high hardness and TDS levels ranging between 1,000 PPM and 3,500 PPM. This heavily taxes domestic reverse osmosis units. Here are the main root causes for slow water flow:
### 1. Clogged Pre-Filters (Spun Filter & Carbon Filter)
The outer spun pre-filter candle catches physical dirt, mud, rust, and silt. In our region, construction dust and heavy minerals clog this filter rapidly. If the pre-filter is choked, water cannot reach the inner RO membrane at sufficient pressure.
### 2. Scaled or Foul RO Membrane
The RO membrane is the heart of your water purifier, featuring microscopic pores (0.0001 microns). High mineral content creates scale deposits inside the membrane housing. Once choked, purified water output drops down to a mere drip.
### 3. Weak Booster Pump
RO membranes require a minimum water pressure (usually 60 to 80 PSI) to force water through the membrane pores. If your booster pump adapter is faulty, or the pump head has worn out due to long usage, pressure drops drastically, resulting in very slow flow.
### 4. Low Air Pressure in Hydro-Pneumatic Storage Tank
If your RO system has a pressurized storage tank, it relies on an internal air bladder to push water up to the faucet. Over 1 to 2 years, air pressure bleeds out. When air pressure is low, the tank may feel heavy and full, but water comes out sluggishly.
### 5. Bent or Kinked Water Tubing
Sometimes during kitchen cleaning or filter shifting, the food-grade plastic tubes behind the unit get bent or crushed, restricting water movement.

## How to Troubleshoot Low RO Water Pressure at Home
Before calling for service, you can try these quick diagnostic steps:
1. **Check the External Pre-Filter Candle:** Turn off the main water valve, unscrew the transparent pre-filter housing, and inspect the white spun filter. If it has turned dark brown or black, it is completely choked and needs immediate replacement.
2. **Inspect Tube Kinks:** Take a flashlight and check behind the RO cabinet. Ensure all blue, white, and yellow water tubes run smoothly without sharp bends.
3. **Test the Storage Tank Weight:** Lift your storage tank. If it feels heavy but water drops slowly from the tap, the internal air pressure has likely dropped. A technician can pump standard air pressure (around 7-8 PSI) back into the valve.
4. **Check Raw Water Supply Valve:** Ensure the inlet ball valve connected to your kitchen tap line is fully open.

## Why Regular Servicing Matters in High TDS Areas
Ignoring slow water flow can cause cascading damage to your purifier:
* **Booster Pump Overheating:** When filters are clogged, the pump works twice as hard, leading to electrical coil burnouts.
* **Excess Reject Water Waste:** A choked membrane leaks excessive wastewater down the drain while producing almost no pure drinking water.
* **SMPS Power Supply Failure:** Continuous running due to slow tank filling drains electrical components prematurely.
Getting your system serviced every **3 to 4 months** in Morbi and Rajkot ensures crystal-clear, safe drinking water while extending your machine's lifespan by years.
