Bladder tank comes pressurized some come with gauge on tank but it is for water pressure not for air pressure on bladder .I have gauges caused i wanted to add booster pump but since i don't use that much water it would be a waste of money.Going with PERMEATE PUMP.

IMO a pressure guage is a must also it will help tell when to change filters and membrane

I replace my filter every six month and membrane every two year regardless, also i flush membrane every 5 days for 5 minutes airwaterice always have a good price on filters and that is the water that i also drink.
ideal water pressure for an RO system is between 65 to 75 PSI

You should find out what your tap tds is. Then decide on how many filters are really needed. You might be able to get away with a 4 stage unit. Less stages= less cost. BRS also has an eBay store.
