I have a 5 stage plus i bought roughly 13 years ago. i decided to install a new membrane, cabon filters, and sediment ( will install new di resin after i know its working ) my question is my gauge shows 0 psi. even with a booster pump ( it did before servicing this as well ) so im certain the filters and membrane are installed properly. wonder if i should try to replace the oem gauge? or any other things to trouble shoot? do you recommend air filled vs glycerin? assuming glycerin is just a better option? anything to look out for i know ace has a air filled 0-100 ins tock i could go repalce it with or would you just install a new inline gauge somewhere else in line? and where? it obv has pressure as water is coming out of the waste and clean water.

Also how long should i let the membrane run before using that water i was thinking 5-10 gallons of water then isntall the new di and start to use?

Thanks Everyone!
 
Did you hook up the flow constrictor correctly? It sounds like you don't have it connected.

If you do need a new pressure gauge, go with glycerine filled, though to be honest it doesn't make much different for indoors use.
