Hey,
I believe it's time to change my RO membrane and I can't get the cap off.
Does anyone have the tool to change the membrane, it is similar to the tool to remove the canister housings.

All good. Heated it up with a hair dryer.
Easy peasy.

I have found that channel lock pliers work well.
I have two that you could borrow next time

Thanks for the offer, but I tried a pair and it kinda just chewed up the ridges of the plastic cap!:redface:
