you can get £110 from machinery mart.

water usage should be the same - altho the ro wil produce better quality water.

i boost my 4040 to 70 PSI and get about 150 ltrs of pure p/h

I paid £100 with postage - I'm sure if you shop around and ask about (maybe put a wanted ad on the site?) you'll get a decent one for a fair price
I can't imagine the water bill is any different wether you've got one or not tbh

Do you know if you can opt out of being on a meter

I think the only way to opt out of the water meter, is if you had it fitted

You can't opt out of having a meter.  If you've had one fitted and you decide within a certain time period ie 12 months that you don't want it, then you can opt out, but after that you have to stick with it.  If you're in a property that already has one, you have to keep it.

Back to booster pumps; £300 from machine mart - model CBM240E is the best I think, as do many others.  It takes my mains pressure into the RO from 1bar to 5bar, I use a 4x40.  Fills my 650l tank in about 2 - 2.5 hours.
