Quick question about your static set up.

How long does it take you to fill that tank you have in the shop?

How many litres is that tank?

Just wondering if I need a booster or not.  Im setting up a system much like yours now.

Thanks.

Its a 1000L tank and it takes about 8 hours to fill and ive got good tape pressure at 90psi so i dont need a booster pump.

As far as i know its a high pressure one because it says high pressure on it and ive got it set at 50% waste 50% pure.
After ive filled my 1000L tank i always give RO a 5 min flush before the next fill.

I got mine from a company in the USA.

Total cost of 4040 Filmtec membrane and a stainless steel housing was $350.00 US dollars.

Hell of a deal if you ask me.
