i just set up a 60 gpd ro/di unit(flow question)
anyone have pictures or a movie of how much water is coming out of their good water line? there is alot of water coming out of the line, and due to the lack of good instructions, i cant really tell if i set up something wrong.

In general a properly functioning RO unit sends about 3-4 times as much water to waste as it produces.
