sorry i hadnt read your previuos post just seen the pictures sounds like your booster pump is pushing water through membranes two fast i dont have one but can you not turn them down or even put stop connectors at each side to try and slow it a bit

I know how to do the salt but since putting the booster pump on it has for some reason put my TDS levels up????

The reason for the booster pump was and is the fill the tank up quicker.....

I thought the booster pump was to help the RO and thus give me a lower tds which it has not...

So their for I am now having to do it this way....
how are you checking the salt if flushed through properly before connecting to ro ? and how many salts are you putting in it?

When I had the setup in the van the TDS was 6/10 on 800ltrs....

Since moving the setup into the garage and putting a booster pump on the tds is now 30...

Without the booster in tds is 6 to start off with once I have done the backwash with the salt and the RO

I thought the booster pump was and is to help the RO in reducing the levels not making them higher...

I bought the booster for a quicker way in fill the tank up.

3/4 filled does that mean it is three quarters filled or 3 or 4 fills ?

I thought the booster pump you are now using is meant for 2-300 ROMan systems not 4040???

I use a full 1000 litre tank, 1&1/4inch tubing to push a high volume of water through my 4040 using a clarke booster pump (140 lpm), with waste set to high to keep my TDS down to a minimum and polish off through 2 DI containers into a 2000 litre storage tank ready to transfer into van whenever needed.

4040 low pressure RO works best when using highest pressure under 225 psi.

I've found hot water goes through the R/O much quicker than cold water. My water before RO gets heated from being stored in a tank left basking in the sun (when it's out) from sunrise 'til 4pm.

The 1st one is similar to the type I use. The 2nd one is a petrol version and is way to fast for R/O but good for transfering into your tank as it's faster.
