Sounds like the booster pump is doing its job! Do you know what your house pressure is before the rodi?

My Vertex runs at about 100 - 105 psi, and that's only because my house tops out at 35 psi, and it's hooked up to the longest possible run in the house (kitchen).

Have you guys measured the waste to product water to see what it's making? Also how long have you had it, how much does it run, how often do you change your filters?

Unfortunately I don't know the incoming pressure, I figured it wasn't very good because of the pressure at the taps and shower in this old house.. But It is a fairly straight shot to that sink. I'll have to pick up a gage and check it out. I thought the pump would run @ 100-110 psi, since the pump has a bypass set @110 psi. So basically the pump is doing nothing then?
