Take a 2 litre coke bottle and time how it take to fill it. Then tell us if you gave a booster pump and which ro di gal per hour you have, That will help us to help you .

if you are in a hard water area it will come out slow and a lot slower than the waste water comes out, i tend to leave mine on overnight if getting a bit low.

mines a pure freedom 300 gallon per day..... slow but does the job, I can't wait to get a booster pump and see how much faster it is.

No wonder its slow. ROman units were never designed for window cleaners. These were designed for marine use and have been moved over to window cleaners.

your water pressure must be poor..

I would test your water pressure and see.

I would get a 4040 as I hate waiting for things 12 hours for 280 litres of water is madness I would run out of water every day.

I am being honest when I say this: if you cannot afford £200 for a booster pump your business model needs looking at before you move on further with wfp as £100 here there and every where happens quite alot with water fed pole.
