Been around 70/90 now for years, around June it crept up to 120ish but I persevered with double di.....last time I filled up was last Thursday and it was 130.....got gout on Saturday but was having week off anyway but checked TDS daily still and it hit and is still at 270 now.
Just bit the bullet and purchased the PF 950 gpd RO, anybody use one and if so what lpm do you get?

 what lpm do you get?

I assume this will just be a badged up 40/40?

If so, production depends on your tap/mains pressure.

I would assume most (but not all) would need a booster pump if it’s an HF4 membrane (I use a booster) so you’ll have to make that judgement call when you’ve got it up and running.
Why don't you have a quick google before making stupid comments?

They should have advised you that if you are just relying on tap pressure you want to go for the HF5 membrane,I used this at a tap pressure of 30-35psi and it worked well.

Tap pressure is around 60psi.

PF recommend HF4 membranes for all water pressures, even 40psi., unless there has been a rethink in recent times.

Do you need to sign up to get the free fill up ? Or can you just roll up never to be seen again .

Don't get it 290 this morning so delayed filling up filled up at 3pm as it was down to 135 otherwise it would have been a trip to Spotless.
