Thanks for the recommendation on the pump great video
No problem
cool video, wow u really have come a long way with your channel 11 k subs coming soon keep up the great work bro
Thanks James. And thanks for all your support. I really do appreciate it
no bother bro its good to see you doing so well
Nice system and easy setup. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Great vid. Most people don't realize how much water the cheaper RO/DI units actually use without a booster. Living in Vegas, water conservation is important. At a ratio of as much as 7:1, (waste to RO) it only makes sense to do this. If you live somewhere that has an abundance of water, no real issues, but if this pump can cut your ratio down to 3:1, it's worth it. Don't be a water pig!
Agreed
i just bought my 1st RO, the pump not screw when it came so i remove some tube to fix it then i think i messed up the connection. my question is i have the same valve and tube i saw at 5:28 at the back. what is it? what is the purpose? mine is connected at T in between pump out and shutoff valve and other end to the T after high pressure switch. is that correct? i cant find any reference on this setup.
Killer video -
Thanks
Wow, they did make that simple. Are you going to mount the pump?
I think so. Yeah I probably will
Fired Up Free Booster!!!
👍
Thanks. For me it is clear how you mounted the booster in the black tube.
What is the object you inserted in the blue cable? Is it necessary? Thanks
Not sure what you mean
Great vid man! In getting 80psi from the tap in the bathroom... I wonder if u get better psi in a diff place in your house? Regardless getting it free is awesome! If I got a free algae scrubber then u could prob throw your channels weight and get a sponsored 200g reef tank and equipment! Get on it man lol
Haha. Trust me I'm working on it. lol.
Nicely done.
Thanks
Cool video Mike 🤗🤗
Thanks PB
Thanks bro 👍
No problemo
Hi, how does the float in the bucket connect to the blue line after pressure switch, thanks.
Can you please do a update on your rodi unit please mike
When the booster pump shuts off how do you get the waste water to shut off?
Unplug the booster pump then turn off the water a minute later
I need to get my booster pump installed. I need more than 24 hours each day!
Lol. I hear that. It literally took me less then 5 minutes
Only issue I see is forgot to put the check valve in the product line before the pressure switch. If it wasn't in the box it should have been.
Question, what is the pressure going into your RO? You will drop PSI going into the filters prior to RO. Maybe better to install booster prior to RO? Seems also most run 1/4" lines vs 1/2. 1/2" feeder line off intake would give more volume, more constant pressure with minimum drop. 1/2" ports on filters to JG reducer 1/2-3/8" into pump and 1/4 into RO. imo
+GREG SHARP good info
Maybe not so good, coz the pump makes pressure pulses so that tubings and cartridges then stabilize the pressure right at the membrane.
Not clearly got why they gave you high pressure switch, it usually has to stop the pump when pressure tank is fiiled
It's not bad to have low pressure switch on iinline - it will save the pump when water goes off (if it ever happens)
Another useful thing is to make auto stop function when filling your clean RODI tank, I can tell how to do that cheap and simple
@@someoyou with my ro system they recommend connecting the pump to the ro membrane
How much faster is the water output? - I got a 5 stage RO, the pure output is a trickle.. will this make much difference?
Yes for sure. Exponential
@@MASSAquariums thanks
mike where you able to lower your psi with that adjustment? i cant seem to get mine down . if i turn it too much it leaks
And I bought the membrane flush kit. It has a ball valve you can turn until the PSI is 80. Want me to put the link in the description
how do you get all these sponsors?
+kevin beard hard work and lots of emails
Do you have a well at your home? Is it safe to run an RODI all day with a well?
Depends on how good your water table is. I have town water
Shouldn’t have your water filter systems over the electrical vacuum system ✌️🇨🇦
It’s just there. I’ve never used that vacuum system. Suction Sucks. 😂
