Question regarding ro/di unit???

[LuckySingh]

i recently purchased a buckeye ro/di unit rated for 100gph...

hooked it up last night and did a test run ....It was dispersing a lot of waste water but it took a gud 10 min to fill a 1 gallon of a rodi water...

is it suppose to be that slow..???

Those are 100 gallon per day, not hour. It takes roughly an hour for me to fill up a 5g bucket with my 75gpd system.

i thought it said GPH...

thats what i usually get depending on the water pressure ( the pressure seems to vary for me )

[Big_Pun]

all membranes rated by the day, oh and the 100gpd have a low rejection rate, meaning water has highe TDS compared to say a 75 or 150 gpd,
so you DI resin will exhaust a lil faster.

[danvan75]

you think 100gpd is slow, try my 50gpd. haha.

I HAVE THE 75 ALSO AND MAKE 5 GALLONS IN ABOUT 45MIN

temp and water pressure also affect how fast it is made.

really? I go 9 months before I have to replace mine.

yup check out buckeyes site 150gpd has a rejection rate of 98.5%

In my opinion dual 75 is the way to go! Fast, efficient and much less waste water. Love it

Just use what you have and upgrade when the membrane is worn out. The filter housings are the same anyway.

I agree with stangchris on the 100 gph membrane. Seems a little bit wasteful in regards to having the DI work harder
