It takes 75 seconds to fill the tank. Did I install correctly? Otherwise it works fine.

Refill time depends upon water pressure and the size of the tank. My Toto water saver toilet refills in 25 seconds. The only tricky part is to set the flow to the bowl refill by adjusting the control on the plastic tube. Bowl design is then important.

65.1 seconds here on a single flush. I am on city water with 90 - 120 PSI. Sounds like you are in 'the zone'.

If there are steel supply lines to toilet, it can be a slow fill. Or low water pressure.

I have the same problem. If I fill it up I usually have enough fluid for about 3 weeks. This is normal.

You have to a few hours if just installed..what's happening is that regular water pressure in trying to Squeeze tap water thru 3 water filters...that's why they give you a 3 gal holding tank..it keeps 3 gals in reserve because it takes a while to recharge the system...give it about 3-4 hours...you're going to love it..

It should heat up your tank within a couple hours, maybe you have a faulty heater :(

I don't have this unit, but have a similar one and I tried it out connecting it to a 11 gallon air tank (which is about the same as a mini-van tire would be). It took 5 minutes to get it up to ~50 psi, so it wasn't as fast as the tire shop can fill it, but it's not that bad. I'd expect about the same performance from this.

Depends on how much water you put into the tank. If you fill to the max, it is about 5 minutes more or less where you will start getting steam to start or resume your project.

Yes. it will take a minute or two to pump up from minimum pressure, but it should be no problem.

Yes it works but it runs out of air quickly and is constantly kicking back on to fill the tank.

yes. quicker than you'd think. sometimes so quick you underestimate and overfill your bottle. It takes only a few pumps to fill a large water bottle.

from the way I understand it you need 3 or 4X the flow per hour so 3X75=225 and times 4 is still only 300 gallons an hour. so it should be more than enough for filtering your tank. Now if you want more flow just add a powerhead and direct it in tha direction you need.

Hi George, I would first check the pressure in the holding tank to make sure it is correct. Have seen where water will come out fast but trickle off quickly and this is sometimes the problem.

You would want to get a larger tank and even then, it will take time to refill. It can take a while for a completely emptied tank to refill.

I am going to guess that the liquid capacity is about 12 ounces or so and there is a schrader valve like your tires to fill air pressure for a pre charge. You can adjust that pressure if you like. I installed this tank about two years ago and it works as advertised. It reduces the amount of run time for the water pump and delays its activation which is important as it is under our bed. The big recommendation I would give is if you live in a cold environment to install it with the plumbing connections facing down so that when you winterize there is no chance for water to be trapped in it and potentially crack the case.

I would agree that it's around an hour. It works well, but it does work well, but doesn't quite flow as fast as advertised.

Are you looking for an automatic fill waterer or manual fill? You might be able to plug into your house if it has a gfi plug. This waterer does take planning and time to install, it took my husband and I about 5 days to install and ready for use. I have no complaints about mine. I hope this helps!

I have a three seater. It takes 3 to 5 mins to fill.It will do it but maybe 8 to 10 min

It would take 40 minutes to fill your 5 gallon tank, and if you had any leaks in your system at all it would be running all the time to try to maintain. Wouldn't recommend it for that large of a tank. I have a 4 gallon tank on my truck and tried to use it for air bags, horn etc.. took 20 min to get it to 40 psi with no leaks in system. Was pretty disappointed with it.
