RO/DI

by Snowboss4492

i got a new RO/DI filter today - 150gpd typhoon III extreme - my water pressure is only about 20psi on the gauge so im no where near the 150 gpd mark {and thats a 24 hr day} i can buy a booster pump to get me up to the 75psi max production, but i dont know if i want to dump another 140 bucks, i think ill just get a big container and put the float valve in so i can let it go over night or all day or something............

i got a TDS meter and my tap water is 217ppm TDS and the filtered water is 12-15 ppm TDS so theres one more area of algae food gone WOOHOO

running at such low pressure is prolly more like 20-30 gpd. i can get a pressure pump but why? 20 gpd is plenty for what im doing.

i am definatly going to get a poly barrel and hook up the float so i can let it go most of the time

J, i would sell it if i had someone to buy it, lol, only guy i know into salt tanks close to me sold me the unit as he bought a bigger one
