    I have the same booster pump. It is by far one of my best purchases. I highly recommend it!

    Thanks Dev! Love my booster pump. I added a second membrane to get 200GPH! Note with the stronger pressure you will need to check on the membrane as the life is less when you push more pressure through it. Just check your TDS on the membrane output to make sure it is always 0. Also as you mentioned there is a screw on the bottom of that unit to adjust the outgoing pressure if anyone needs to adjust it up to 90.

    Nice addition to your RO Deven. I was running 55psi before I installed the same booster pump you have and now I’m at 76-80psi which is adequate. I mounted mine on the wall over top of the RO unit. The rubber feet absorb a lot of the vibration but you can still hear it a little.

    I was just talking to a buddy about this over the weekend. I'll share the video.

    I am upgrading my rodi unit to commercial size unit and bought all the parts and diying the design, 2800 GPD with 170 psi booster pump with rotary wane pump that pumps 5 gpm.

    I installed a booster pump about 6 months ago. Huge difference. I can see now I want an auto flush valve. I'm curious on how you will mount the booster pump. I installed mine on a 2x4 with a rubber pad against the drywall in the garage but it still sounds like the washing machine is running on the opposite wall inside the house. Drives the wife crazy. LOL.

    Hi Dev , i wanted to know if it is normal that the booster pump gets hot?

    Great video I don't understand that why filters last longer with faster flow verses slower flow. And you would think slower flow would get more bad stuff out of water than faster flow. I never thought alot about more flow in my RODI. I'm going to get me flow meter and check mine out too. We have really good water pressure but maybe not enough thanks again for sharing.

    So is it best to run the booster before the membrane or after the filter to the membrane

    Devin, I have a question that why wouldn't you go with the AquaticLife Smart Buddie booster pump?

  • @DanPotter1974

    Deven are you using Dual RO membranes to reduce the waste even further, possibly the best £30 I ever spent on my RO system.

    Did you have to adjust the booster pump at all? I had purchased one from AquaFX on eBay and I just could NOT get it dialed in. My PSI got over 110 and the whole pump and RODI unit just vibrated out of control. I feel like i am missing something but there’s not too many videos out there that aren’t either over two mins or under like 6 years old. Should I try this again?

    I just added the auto flush to my setup and I’m noticing it’s a lot louder than what it was with the manual flush when running/not flushing the membranes. Is that normal? (Im assuming when it goes quite and the pressure gage reduces that’s when you know it’s auto flushing?)

    Can you give me the connections for your RO setup? I dont have a sink and I have the washer dryer set as you. The only difference is my washer and dryer are not stacked. Is there a RUclips video to set up the RO like you've done?

    So I’m OK I don’t need a booster pump? I have a 6 stage RODI 200g a day. New my psi was 72, currently my PSI is about 67.

    Hi I installed mine too but I have a question I noticed that the booster pump stay vibrating all the time is that supposed to be like that all the time or it supposed to turn the vibration off ??? I’m confused 🤷‍♂️
