Top Off Water?

and then most units waste 3 gallons for each gallon of RO "made".

How much waste you have depends on your set up. I went with a regular 75gpd for a year until I learned about the dual membrane set ups The waste water that leaves the first membrane feeds into a second membrane so rather than be immediately discharded it gets filtered and used again). I takes a booster pump to work but saves 50% water and makes the RO water twice as fast as a single 75 gph membrane set up. LOVE it!

wow i like that and i 65psi on my unit, i was just about to buy a new 100gpd membrane, and i have a spare ro housing. thanks karin

65psi without a pump. That's nice! I had 45 psi and had to get a booster pump. In the long run it's all worth it though. Faster, cleaner, less waste
...

warning: do measure psi. if you don't have enough it won't work efficiently and could turn out dirtier water.

What about the water things inside Walmart...? The blue machine that fills up jugs of water?

Thats a good idea! i know my Buckeye wastes alot of water. Might have to order one and give it a try.
