Specification guidelines.
The system makes a good supply of drinking water each day.
How much it will make depends primarily on these things…

For water with hardness greater than 10 grains (at 6.9 pH), the use of a
softener is recommended. Failure to install a water softener will reduce the
life of the Reverse Osmosis membrane. See chart for additional information
on the possible need for a water softener.
a. If house water pressure is over 80 psi, install a pressure reducing valve in the water supply line. If house water pressure
is under 40 psi, install a Reverse Osmosis booster pump (contact your local plumbing supply company).
