Water Pressure: How important is water pressure to an RO System?Updated 2 months ago


Water pressure pushes water through the Reverse Osmosis membrane for purification and flushes the rejected solids away. Low water pressure will result in reduced production and premature fouling of the RO membrane. The ideal pressure for operating an RO system is 60 PSI. Pressure below 40 PSI is considered insufficient, and should be increased using a booster pump, which we offer and can guide you through installing. If your PSI is too high we offer Pressure Regulators to reduce your pressure to acceptable levels.
