Hello all,
question for the pros!
I have a 75 GPD RO 5 stage filter from BRS. When I first got the unit I hooked it all up and found out I needed the booster pump. So I ordered that. Installed it! I was at 55 psi on the RO unit and life was great. Until the pressure started to drop. When it would do so I would make the needed adjustment on top of the booster pump, until it finally died. I got in touch with BRS and they directed me to Aquatec. Aquatec requested I send them the pump for them to look at for warranty purposes which again ,I did. I went 3 weeks of having to go to Walmart to get water to fill the water station to keep the tank full. During those 3 weeks I replaced the sediment filter as I did some research and what I had found was that the sediment filter could start to cause this issue. Well it has been less then a week since I got my pump back from Aquatec. When I plugged it in I was getting a pressure of 38. So reluctantly I gave the little screw a bump and got it to 42. I measured the output at 2.5 gallons an hour when it should be making 3 point something, but I did not want to mess with that screw very much. My problem is the pressure is back down to 38. Is the booster pump or the ro unit the problem? I have ran a total of maybe 600 gallons of water thru this setup. TDS is reading 0. I dont want to start throwing new filters in it unless this points to one specifically, as I dont think they are bad, just yet.
Please HELP!!
Mike
