yeah at a guess in the fish shop they had whopping great big industrial sized RO units, yours is like the home version, they are much much slower, your results are not at all surprising, we had the same sort of speed with a 50GPD unit.

also remember the temp fo the water will have an effect on teh speed, if it's too cold as is likely at this time of year it slows it all down although helpfully i can't remember why.

Bare in mind, a 60gpd unit, will produce a maximum of 60 gallons a day.
In actuality it is probably producing considerably less, it depends on the temperature and pressure of the water going into it

I want a job at a fish shop, but the closest proper one is like 20 miles from my house

 

[kribensis12]

Thanks guys! I also get to set the prices! For the R/O, i use it outside. Luckily, we dont have a thing on any of our indoor faucets to use, so we are using the cold( i mean like FREEZING cold water from a spicket outside). I will see if any of my family members ( i have 2 relatives house right downt he street) and see if i can steal some water( warm) from them to see if it processes better.

i got my first aquatic job on my 14th birthday, its very rewarding being able to give customers (honest) advice

 

[kribensis12]

Orange Shark has an R/O unit I believe...he's in live chat right now.

Is it attached to the outside spigot with a hose? If it is coil a length of the hose in a bucket, put hot water in the bucket.

 

[kribensis12]

Yes it is. I dont entirly understand what you mean about coiling it in a bucket of hot water.

 

[Tolak]

Put some of the hose in a bucket of hot water, the water will warm the hose water a bit as it flows through.
