is this a typo or is it realy rated for 100gph? that would be 2400gpd

and is the yield 1-2 gpd or gph?

ok so asuming that it is a 100gpd unit and you are getting 1-2gph would mean your getting about 25 to 50 gpd.

first thing, what is your water PSI and temp? with out knowing these we can only make guesses.

I assumed he meant 1-2 gpd, with 100gpd membrane, 50 gpd wouldn't be that bad and wouldn't indicate a problem, except that the water pressure is a little low.

AquaSafe is now back in business with a new web site ordering here. Also, you may order membrane replacement from bulk reef supplies.

Cheers!

Some membranes from other manufacturers may fit, we have a limited supply, bring your old one in and we can see if we can match one up for you.
