It's not the link that's dud.

I just traced the route to the site and it exists as posted.

Must be a problem with the server or the site itself

Cheers

Ohh you did?   ;D

In that case I suspect you have very low water pressure. Don't confuse pressure with flow. When I put my taps on full it seems to have loads of pressure. It is only just above 40 PSI though  :(

Give me a call tomorrow and we will get it sorted for you.

Cheers

I supposae it should be quicker but if you have low water pressure or a low production RO thewn it can be a problem.
MY RO produced about 600 litres in 24 hours during the coldest part of the Winter.  I've not measured it since the warmer weather arrived.  I think I have a 300 gpd unit but, although my water pressure is workable, it's a bit on the low side.  It's never been an issue because, as long as it produces faster than I use it, I don't mind.
