tds in is 320.

pressure, dont know, how can i check?

using:

pre-filter
merlin ro
di vessel

running from:

outside tap
30m hose to filtration in garage
3m hose from filters to van

i dont have to run it through the 30m hose if that makes a difference, i can shorten that to about 10m if that makes any difference?

You would need to work out what your tap pressure is....this would then point you in the right direction of where to make improvments.

You would need to obtain a pressure guage from somewhere to get this info...perhaps another wfp who lives close to you may be le to help out...
