RO Water Purifier Bad Taste or Odour
A RO Water Purifier with the "Bad Taste or Odour" fault usually shows it through water tastes plasticky or metallic, a smell noticeable when the tap is opened, and taste that has changed recently. This is typically traced back to overdue carbon filter replacement, stagnant water sitting in an unused storage tank, and a degraded RO membrane letting more dissolved solids through. A technician resolves it by replacing overdue filters and the membrane on schedule and flushing the storage tank.
