I may have pics at the end of week.


As a bit of an update on other stuff:

I will have a new calcium reactor for you all to see soon!


RO stuff: I use to have 100 feet of 1/4 RO tubing going through my sump to cool my tank water and also to pre-warm my RO water to make it more efficient. I recently got a pressure gauge and found this 100 feet to give quite the pressure loss. So I changed it out for 3/8 RO tubing. Then I got 65 gallons per day out of the unit, not bad for a unit rated at 75 gpd (btw my tap pressure is over 60 psi).

Then I decided to try out a booster pump and see if I could make the membrane even more efficient (not too concerned with output, but it is a nice plus). Now I get 96 gpd out of the unit, and my post membrane tds dropped from 8 to 4!
Only problem is the switch that turns on the booster pump only activates when the post membrane pressure is below 28 psi, so in day to day operations it never turns on at all. It will however turn on if I am making lots of water and have almost depleted my storage tank. I will try and get a different pressure switch.
