  • @ridel149 does it remove all chemicals?

  • @Number1Techguru - I don't think so. "All" is a very bis word. Water and some gas molecules fit through the membrane so no. It is good with big stuff like salt, calcium, etc.

  • Hi there. In the UK these systems are used to purify tap water in window cleaning systems. Do you have any figures on how much a booster pump will increase production? Clearly it depends on the psi of mains water but if you were to increase the psi of water on the delivery side from 30 to 40 psi with a booster pump this will boost the production by X percent. Do you have any references you know of?

  • @cabadejo - I don't but wherever you source the membrane should have a pressure-volume chart. If they don't (retailer), the manufacturer should. Then it is is a game of differential INs and OUTs. A close approximation can be done with averages.

  • hi, i have the RO system installed for over two years and recently i turned on my faucet, the filtered water came out blue/violet. Does that mean i need to replace my RO membrane or the cartridges down to the filters?

  • @Quy4life I don't know. Two years is a long time. No way to know how many gallons processed. No idea about color. It couldn't hurt. Lines may need changing. May be infected with an organism. I don't know.

  • Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing This is part 1 of a 2 part series on how you can configure a working whole-house RO system.

  • Hello. I started watching some of your videos and what started as a way to learn how to modify my RO system has now become an ambition to be more like you.

    My question is the rotating valve that leaks out the brine and maintains the pressure within the brine part. Could that simply be a valve that is open just a small amount or is that a special rotating valve as you described?

  • so sodium fluoride is not remove?
