* UPDATE
This problem has been solved...!
I ended up adding a booster pump even though I didn’t “need” it, but now I have the option.

Hello fellow reefers,
we have recently moved to a new house and my Reverse Osmosis unit had been sitting stagnant for about 3 months.
Prior to the move it had been barely used.
Problem:
my water output is reading 0TDS, however the amount of filtered water is very very low. And my waste line water output is at least 4-5 times higher.
PSI at the membrane is 40PSI which should be enough (not ideal 50~60 psi, but it should still net me about 55GPD or so)
Question:
since the system hadn’t been used for a few months could this mean I should replace all filters including membrane?
troubleshooting done so far:
- I have flushed the membrane for a full day
- I had the system pressurized for about 4 days
