We installed the system. There is a small leak in the lid of the membrane housing from the tube connector. Can the lid be purchased separately?

Is it the membrane housing for sure (5th stage)? I'm going to say you can probably take that piece in to your local hardware store and find a replacement. We had leaks from stages one through three and found that the gasket seal had shifted when we screwed them in. So we just had to resituate the seals. We also had to buy a replacement tank valve as the one that came with it was pretty cheap. Not sure if that helps any...but my 2 cents. Bought the system may of 2013 and so far so good after the initial installation.

Take the top apart clean it with a stiff bristle brush and lube the Oring with vaseline. Clean the canister threads with the brush and lube the top lip of the canister with vaseline. Hayward also makes a lubricant they supply with a new unit. Over tightening the unit just makes it harder to undo and no O-ring makes mine leak. Good Luck!

If the leak comes before the module then shut off the water, pull the hose And replace the one ring and make sure it ends up where it is Saposed to sit. That's the official answer. But if you can't get the o ring to stay in placer while you get the hose in place, put a real hose clamp on it.

Yes you should be able to do that. When you order a new tank like I did the filter replacement was included. Hope this helps you. All the connections on the new tank were the same as the old one. It was an easy swap.

CRYSTAL CLEAR - MFG - get a few extra intake plugs for the water tubes as mine leaked

I would try e-bay, because the manufacturer phone # does not provide service any more. I tried to buy an extra gasket because I know they eventually wear out, and was told when I called that they no longer supply parts, service, or help of any kind. This was about a year ago. If you are able to return the pressure cooker you might want to do that. If not you could disassemble it to sell the parts on e-bay. I need a gasket :). I hope Montel is hanging his head in shame over this, but most likely he's laughing his way to the bank and doesn't care.

Same thing happened to me and I couldn't find just the lid. I had to fix it using epoxy and carbon fiber. in the meantime I bought a new one. They're great thermos!!

When I received my unit, the dispensing valve had a manufacturer's defect. In order to get it replaced, I was going to have to repackage the entire unit and mail it back for a replacement. I opted for the discount offered me if I kept it and replaced the valve myself. I did not ask about purchasing the separate components, but I would think they would be available. Hope it goes well for you.

Our's came with it and everything needed for the install. I used plumber's putty and it leaked when installed.Took it out and reinstalled with silicone, which worked perfectly. FYI... if you over tighten the clamp that holds it in, it willstrip over it's seat on the drain. The unit is quiet and works well

Unfortunately no. You cannot buy a separate lid. That's what is so frustrating.

I have not had to replace the lid. I assume you could contact Krups through their website and obtain a replacement lid.

depends what part you are talking about, a leak from the top part that connects to the shower ascending tube should be reparable with replacement seals if it's not cracked. The seal inside the downspout connected to the little center plunger handle is also replaceable, just unscrew the handle from the connecting rod and the seal assembly falls out the bottom. The last one I replaced had corrosion around the spot the plunger seal contacts and would not seal even with a new assembly. it was VERY old. I used a plunger from an identical one that worked. I could not find the plunger seal assembly for sale :( I vote replace, this thing is cheap and lasts for a very long time. depends what part you are talking about, a leak from the top part that connects to the shower ascending tube should be reparable with replacement seals if it's not cracked.

As far as I know there is nothing you can do to fix that other than to replace the part. You might find the occasional well-stocked hardware store that would have the part you are after but the better bet would be to contact Thermos directly at: 1-800-831-9242 or visit www.thermos.com. I have been handwashing mine - not sure if that absolutely needs to happen but so far there have been no issues doing it that way. Good luck!

Yes, I had to replace the flat blue gasket (it fell out--the one design flaw) and Ace Hardware had a perfect replacement. Take the Thermos in and they will find it. Works perfectly, and you need that gasket.

I took mine apart and put Vaseline around the water inlet fitting, which has done the trick for over six months now. I disconnected the fittings, coated the water line and fitting with Vaseline and reassembled. I asked my local hardware store person about the leaking and he suggested this. It works!

I used silicone gasket compound on the fittings that screw into the filter housing instead of teflon tape to make sure they would not leak. I purchased a Culligan mounting bracket to help support the filter housing since the pipe is cpvc. I also added by-pass valves and pipe so that if I need to replace the filter housing I will still have water. A few dollars more, but I will always have water.

Yes you can. Do not discard the lid. also the rubber seal and be replaced if not with another one like it one can be made from old and thin rubber like a bicycle tire tube.
