2 factors that will determine the output of your RO unit.

1. Source water temperature (membrane rates are based on 77F water I believe)

2. Water Line pressure (the membrane is based on 60 psi)

The higher the source water temperature the more production you can get (don't hook up the source water to the hot water line).

The higher the water line pressure the more production you will get (you can get a booster pump for your RO system that will boost the PSI to 80).

Cheers,
Vic
