all good
"I've done this job often enough that it is not as worrisome as the very first time or two. Tips from my experience (and to remind me): 1. ESP sells little tubes of food-grade silicone lubricant, but you have to go look for it. It's not included nor was it pushed to me. 2. One set of instructions tells me to let the water dribble out for a while (several gallons) BEFORE opening the storage tank. BUT that did not prevent getting a bunch of carbon flowing through after the tank was opened. I'm testing with a TDS meter, and even with the carbon the RO filter seemed to be doing the job."
