Title: What booster?
Post by: takinatrip on August 08, 2014, 01:04:18 pm
Hi all I have a 300gpd ro system going into an ibc tank our water pressure is only 20psi would you recommend a booster pump if so which one? I only use about 1500 litres a week if that. Just thought it might reduce waste and help the system perform better. Our tds from the tap is 260 ish and the unit drops it to around 25 which then goes thru the resin to 000.

Are you using a big booster pump like this on a tiny r/o?
