Small home type RO units only make a few gals / day , so how much does yours make ? If
your line pressure is low there will be a much lower output. Most home units work best at
about 65 psi. With a line pressure of say 30 psi the output will be about cut in half.
This is where the booster pump comes in. RO membranes have a certain pressure value which
should not be exceeded and if done so will blow-out the membrane.


Is there an easy way to make booster pump cycle less often ?
I tried to hook-up the booster pump to my unit but the pump
seemed too strong and it pulsed 2-3 times per second causing
noise unbearable for my family.

p.s.
Do you maybe know what is the maximum pressure for membranes sold by KENT ?
