How long does an RO system last?

Why is my RO system not working?

If nothing is flowing, check to make sure the valve is in the open position (handle in line with the tubing). First, turn off the tank valve, then, disconnect the tank tube from the RO system and see if water flows into a bucket when the valve is on. If so, check the postfilter to make sure it’s not clogged.
