The 75gpd is the most popular membrane because it also has a high rejection rate that only needs 50psi to acheive which is great for most city homes and you would not need a booster to reach 50psi.

the 150 your talking about is that the Dow 100/160? I run two of these in my RO unit, they put out 100gpd at 60psi, or 160 gpd at 90 psi. exelent membraines.
