hi how long should it take 2 fill a water butt 210 lt it took me 6 hours 2 fill a 25 lt container some help please i have 5 stage ro sys.

Hmmm,

What is your water pressure?

Is your system set to backwash?

In 6 hours you should have been able to fill your 210 litre tank no problem.

My 1st guess is your water pressure!

Let s know.

It depends what 5 stage RO you have,

A 100gpd will produce about 16-18 litres per hour on decent pressure.

A 200gpd will produce about 27-30 lph

A 300gpd will produce about 37-45lph.

Check that your flush valve is turned to production they come from many suppliers in the flush position.

What is your mains pressure reading on the pressure gauge?

Hi
My mains pressure is 35 psi !!

Forgive my ignorance but should i buy a pump and if so where from i have a ro man 75 Gals a day.

Would the added pump produce 75 Gals a day ??

Regards

Marcus.

Well you have found your problem if your pressure is 35psi !

You need a pump, i got mine from www.Gardinerpolesystems.co.uk

It works a treat and delivers 650 litres in 14 hours.

Give them a call.

Best wishes,

Trev

if your prod is too low, get a pump and upgrade to at least 200gpd, will cost about £70for pump and about £35 for each additional membrane and another £15 for the housing.  75gpd?  I USE about 160USgpd, so don't forget the ratings are all USgal=3.78ltrs  whereas UKgal=4.545ltrs
