Hello, water flows fine from tap for a bit, around 500ml it slows down. I assume it is the filter. Is there anything I need to do On the storage tank when I replace the 4 cartridges? My system is a series 12403. The manual says to check pressure on air valve located on base of tank. On my system there is no valve…there is only a plug on the bottom of the tank?
