Troubleshooting, Cont.
Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
Bad tasting water
Increase in product TDS
See “High product water TDS”
Carbon Post-Filter exhausted
Replace Carbon Post-Filter cartridge
Tank and appliance contaminated
Replace Pre- and Post-Filter, sanitize tank and
appliance
Tank contaminated
Sanitize tank
Tank diaphragm failure
Replace tank and postfilter cartridges
Carbon Post-Filter cartridge not flushed
completely
Flush one or two tanks of product water
through Post-Filter
Cloudy water
Dissolved air in feed water, which is
concentrated in product water
This condition usually clears up eventually as
the condition of feed water changes. Letting
water stand will allow dissolved air to dissipate
Cloudy ice cubes
Increase in product TDS
See “High product water TDS”
Dissolved air in feed water, which is
concentrated in product water
Contact your local Hague dealer
Certain ice cube shapes trap more dissolved
air than others. The larger, more squared off
cubes are the clearest. Smaller, rounded
surface ice cubes are cloudier
Change ice cube mold shape, make cubes
manually if using automatic. Let water sit to
release dissolved air before freezing
RO membrane is bad
Membrane fouled, hydrolyzed, ruptured, or
attacked by bacteria
Replace membrane
Pre- or Post-Filter leaks
from housing
Deformed or stretched O-Ring or housing not
tight
Replace O-Ring and clean seating surface or
tighten housing
Flow/pressure control
plugged
Dirt or debris plugging flow restrictor tube
Replace flow restrictor/pressure control
Spigot-valve leaks
through spout
Valve seat is defective
Repair spigot assembly, P/N 10271
Air gap overflows
Debris is lodged in 3/8-inch tube from air gap
to drain
Disconnect the tube from drain saddle and
clean out debris

Tank-Loss of Air
Tank may lose air over a period of time
Adjust air pressure between 5 and 7 psi
(34 and 48 kPa)
Failed diaphragm
Pressure exceeds diaphragm strength due to
combination of high feed pressure and low
precharge, or defective tank
Replace tank
