You guys have the same as me...

I had to buy an RO booster pump to produce 100GPD though. However, I'm now just about to upgrade to a 300GPD RO system.

Hi Gary

Looking at the description and info of the link.
I now own a 100GPD will this increase it to nearly 200GPDD?
Or am i reading it wrong?

it all depends on your water pressure you will make more water than before, i think you can add 2 of the membranes to upgrade to a 300gpd

I think the pressure needs to be a minimum of 30 psi to get something out of it, so looking at your pressure, yes you need a booster pump.

Don't bother with an upgrade to 200 or 300 gallons per day, cos if your pressure is too low frankly you will be wasting your dosh.

Get a booster pump, it sorted out my problems. It will also make your resin last a hell of a lot longer.

Although it's not listed on their website Gardiners will get one for you, about £65 plus delivery I think.

Tried hard to post a picture of My 300 gpd ro, that had a pressure gauge reading of about 3.5psi and was dribbling product transformed  into a 15psi gushing monster with 278 in and between 0 and 1 coming out.
I.E. Those people who said about the pump, they were right.
If anyone knows how to post a picture tell me.
