    CO2 Troubleshoot

    Need help in some troubleshooting. Currently both gauge seems to be on the low side, the CO2 output from the diffuser is also quite low.

    If I turn on the main tank tap (Grey on top), the gauge on the right goes back to somewhere around the 11 o'clock mark resulting in a normal CO2 output from the diffuser. I will then fine tune the mini knob at the bottom to a desirable output. However, after a day of running the gauge on the right will drop back down to the low level and I'll have to turn on the main tap to restore the pressure and amount of CO2 output.

    Any idea what is causing this and indeed my tank needs to be refilled?

    I do not understand, you should turn the main tap (grey on top) all the way. The gauge on the left should show around 1000psi. If not, then either the tap is spoiled or the tank is empty.

    Always keep the grey tap on. Adjust the co2 bubble count on the mini nob.If you turn off the grey tab the
    pressure gauge on the left will drop.
