Title: Ro System
Post by: martin hulstone on December 10, 2016, 08:30:06 am

I now need to produce 10 000 litres of water a week and my ro 40/40 with two 10 ich pre filters is really struggling(i also have a clarke 240 booster pump). could anybody please advise me of the best system to get as there is so much choice and i do not want a costly mistake.
Also does water production slow down when it is cold? mine is trickling out.
Many thanks.

I know a guy who uses a 4040 ro and goes through 7500 litres in 5 days tells me if he had two tanks he could easily make double that in a week ,there must be something wrong with your ro

If i left my 40/40 on i would make over 2000L in less than 24hrs.

Tap pressure.

Thanks, will check all connections, as previously stated, pressure should not be a problem as I have a pump attached.

Have you checked the actual flow from your mains ? I would say this is what slows most RO's down, read this.
