RODI pump

[gprdypoo04]

Just out of curiosity how many use a booster pump and how do u like it?

I used to use one, made a lot of difference in product water.
I was happy.

I was right at 45 psi on my pressure from the tap. It was ok, but wasnt getting anywhere close to the 150 gpd my system is set for. Added a booster and find it much more efficient. Also noticed my DI resin use went down by about %25.

Getting my own RODI filter makes the top five best equipment purchases I ever bought. Adding the Aquatec booster pump with a small filter/strainer is my #1 upgrade. Production/rejection rate were greatly improved, going from 38psi to 80.
The strainer was less than $10, and stupid simple to clean. Im convinced it adds a lot of life to the pump. Over 4 years now and still going strong.

I have 60 PSI city water...Wondering if it would still be worth a booster pump for me. I have a BRS 150 water saver. [MENTION=48382]reefteaser[/MENTION], where did you get your strainer from?

BRS has it https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/dm-fit-filter-strainer.html
At 60 you might not see a big difference with the booster. In my case it helped a lot, but my pressure is low to start.
