Product Information
Full details
The Hommix Reverse Osmosis Water Storage Tank is an ideal solution for homeowners looking to maintain a consistent flow of filtered water from their RO filtration systems. With a 3.2-gallon capacity, it is designed for households seeking to bridge the gap between slow production rates and high demand for pure water. While its compact footprint fits most under-sink cabinets, users must ensure they have sufficient vertical space for the connection fittings and tubing.

FAQs
Does this tank come pre-pressurised?
Yes, it is shipped pre-pressurised and ready for integration with your RO system.
What is the total capacity?
The tank is rated for 3.2 gallons, with an effective storage volume of approximately 3 gallons depending on your system pressure.
Is the material safe for drinking water?
Yes, it is built with an internal polypropylene liner and FDA-compliant materials, and is NSF/ANSI 58 certified.
Can I use this with any RO system?
It is compatible with most standard reverse osmosis systems that utilize a 1/4 inch tubing connection.
What is the function of the included plastic stand?
The stand provides stability and elevates the tank, protecting the base and valve from damage during installation or transport.
How often should I replace the tank?
While the tank is durable, most manufacturers recommend inspecting the diaphragm for integrity every 3-5 years.
Troubleshooting
Low water flow from the faucet
The tank may have lost pressure. Check the air pressure using a gauge and top up using a hand pump.
Water leakage at the connection
Ensure the 1/4 inch tubing is pushed firmly into the fitting and cut squarely to create a perfect seal.
The tank feels heavy but no water comes out
This indicates a potential bladder failure or blockage; check that the tank valve is fully open and the system is not clogged.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Certified safety and material standards
- Easy push-fit connection system
- Compact design suitable for most under-sink areas
- Stable base stand included
- High-quality diaphragm prevents water contamination
Cons
- Requires space for 1/4 inch tubing connections
- Pre-pressurised state may require adjustment based on home water pressure
- Fixed capacity may be insufficient for very large households
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the universal 1/4 inch push-fit connection. To set up, simply attach your existing RO system tubing directly to the tank valve. Ensure the tank is placed on a flat, level surface using the provided stand to prevent wobbling. For maintenance, check the tank pressure once a year. If the pressure drops, use a standard bicycle pump to inflate the tank to its recommended PSI (typically 7-10 PSI when empty) through the valve port. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners; a simple damp cloth is sufficient to wipe down the exterior.
