RO/DI water pres.?

How much pressure do I need to effectively run a RO/DI unit? I know some come with booster pumps. My well water pressure is currently 45-50 psi

I run between 48 & 54 psi & have had no problems.
I think you are fine.

I agree with ducatimikep. The pressure you have will do fine for you, except it'll take a while.
