A reverse osmosis system that gurgles or hisses usually has a simple cause. Here is the Royal Oak guide.
The gurgle
Gurgling as the tank refills is normal, but constant gurgling can mean a leak to the drain.
The hiss
A hissing sound is usually water flowing through the drain line, which should stop when the tank is full.
The fix
A pro checks the shutoff valve and the drain line.
The call
Quiet the system. Call 888-217-3585 and Royal Oak Plumber Connect will match you with a Royal Oak pro.
