Hi all, I have a 55 gal tank that’s been running for 3 years. I just moved and installed my ro/di water system and although I don’t have a gauge to read the pressure I’m pretty certain the pressure is crap as filling a 5 gal bucket took me like 6 hours. In my old apt it would take me 1.5-2 hours. I’m not sure what to do, any suggestions? This is an apt so there’s no shot the landlord is going to do something on his end to increase the water pressure in my apt. I’m debating using distilled 1 gal bottles for top off @$2 a gal or should I just suck it up? I imagine 6 hours of running water for 5 gal will get expensive.

They sell booster add ons. Not to sure if that will work. I've never had to use them.

Check out a device called the ROBuddie. It’s fantastic and is easy to use and install
Googled it but it seems like a reverse osmosis system. I already have that, my problem is that the water pressure in my apartment makes the system create water super slowly now
