Who actually has 40+ psi of water pressure from their house?

[b4tn]

I would really like to put float switch on my RODI but I am lucky to get 25 psi on my RODI unit. I am starting to think without a booster pump its just not possible. I am at my third house and never have I seen 40+psi. I tried bumping the water pressure at the regulator in my house but it didnt seem to change anything and didnt want to burst my pipes lol.

 

[KStatefan]

I am at 80 psi

I get about 60 out of the faucet, but I still use a booster pump to push it up to 80psi for the RO. I am running a 400GPD system though.

I feel cheated!

I was at about 35-40 until my well pump died. My well guy replaced that with a big**s DC pump that is exactly 71 psi all the time. I be loving it (until my RO float valve sticks open on me).

Whoa! 400GPD.

You must have done what I keep threatening to do: seal the basement and fill it full of salt water. Just gotta figure out where to put that darn furnace.

80 psi+ here too. 470 ppm TDS though so it's no all sunshine and roses.

 

[thewackyreefer]

65+ here all day.

60psi making 100gpd here from my laundry room

Nope, no basements here in AZ. I just HATE waiting for water. I can fill a 44g Brute in about 90 minutes.

80 psi+ here too. 470 ppm TDS though so it's no all sunshine and roses.

My TDS from the tap is usually 600-700. Water is TERRIBLE here and no one drinks it without filtration. Most people have softners AND an RO system under the sink for drinking water.

35 psi. You are not alone. The auto shut off works sometimes. It always shuts off the flow to the reservoir, but most often the waste line still runs.

I get about 68-70psi at the spigot in the laundry closet where my RODI is hooked up.

Grab a booster pump and don't look back.

 

[MTBake]

70 psi for me.

 

[The Aquatic Arsenal]

Have you looked into a booster pump?

 

[GThompson]

I’m starting to feel lucky. 76 psi and 46 TDS at the faucet

 

[Scurvy]

I get about 90psi out of the tap in my bathroom where the unit is. I got about the same from the kitchen faucet before I moved the unit into the bathroom.

If you have a pressure tank you can change pressure switch which is usually a 40/ 60 to a 60/80 switch or like me I went ahead and bought a booster pump which cost about $100 more than a pressure switch.
My psi was at 30 and pump gets it up to 80.
I would have changed switched but I may sell my house in a couple years and thought I would just buy the booster pump.

i get 75 psi 250 tds from faucet

The gauge on my RO/DI unit reads 70-80psi, which is the highest I've seen from a municipal supply.

I’m 80psi and 24-27TDS. Do I even need RODI?
