RO-DI for well system

marc nichols · 01/07/2007, 06:31 PM

Our well system pressure runs 30-50PSI. It is also expensive to run wth 2 pumps and a holding tank so I am concerned with brine/ waste water volume. I do not need high volume output.

I am looking for information and suggestions as to what would be the best RO system given these parameters.

I think your best bet would be to use a booster pump and make a large volume of water at a time. With your low PSI, RO membranes are not very efficient. Thus your going to have more waste water.
