Just had the Kinetico guy come out and replace the filters (2) in my RO system. Since he did, the unit now makes a sound like either and old man going to the bathroom, or a breathing machine in the hospital. Seems obvious to me there is an air bubble somewhere. My question - how do you "burp" a Kinetico RO system?

Can you say wich RO you have? What color are the filters and tank? Is your RO an airgap or non-airgap type? Have you emptied the tank? Where does the sound come from, the sink?

Have you called the company and described the situation? Problems with service calls should be made right away and dates noted. Ask them to come back and corrrect the situation and without expectation of a charge.
