Can't beat for winter preparation! By Brandon on 10/18/12
Brandon would recommend this product to a friend
This pump is even better than I expected. It was simple to install. Not to mention, it's much quieter than I had expected! I thought as soon as I plugged this thing it, it would sound like a small air compressor, man was I wrong! I purchased this pump because I run a 90gpd piggy-back. My home water pressure is around 60psi in the summer, however, with the winter coming along, the cold water drastically reduces the pressure. I see such a pressure drop because this unit is setup in an outside Rubbermaid storage shed specifically for hobby items. This includes two 32 gallon Brute trash cans for fresh and saltwater mix. The water runs from a 75 foot hose from the house, to the RO/DI unit. Last year, I experienced pressures so low during the winter, I had to take my additional piggy-back membrane off and just run one. This year, with the additional pressure from the pump, I'll be prepared for winter! I highly recommend this product. Not to mention, you can't beat BRS' price on this!

Great unit! 220v side note By Chris on 10/15/12
Chris would recommend this product to a friend
I must say that is is a great product for anyone not getting the required psi into their RO system. The unit is small, quiet and well bulit. I prurchased the booster pump because I was only getting, at best, 40 psi into the RO membraine. Now I am seeing 88 psi. With the 150 gpd upgrade and this pump my production has dramically increased and I am seeing a 1:1 ratio. Well worth the money!!!!
As a side note, any one who is living in an country that uses 220v you must buy a special converter for this unit. The 220v power supply can be found on this website: isopurewater.com and the item number is:TACS234-48RF. It will cost about 35.00 plus shipping.
Happy Reefing!!

Certainly doubled my RO output By Joe on 10/12/12
Joe would recommend this product to a friend
My PSI went from 50 to 90 and my RO at least doubled. This means it will run for a shorter amount of time and produce less waste water. Well worth the purchase.

Does the job By Robert on 10/2/12
Robert would recommend this product to a friend
I have been running this pump for 60+ days now and love it. It runs quite and is very easy to adjust. It easily boosted my 40lbs to 90lbs. I did adjust it back to 85psi. I would buy it again.

The quality of this pump is evident as soon as you hold it. It is very solid with a bit of weight to it. My pressure went from 45psi to 90psi.

Worth it if your RO/DI unit is running on low pressure By William on 8/15/12
William would recommend this product to a friend
My 5 Stage RO/DI unit was running on about 35psi soon as this pump was installed it gave me about 120psi right off the bat. I dialed it down to sit at a steady 75psi and have had absolutely no issues with the pump. Fantastic product.

MAKES MAKING RODI FASTER By Tom on 8/12/12
Tom would recommend this product to a friend
I bought this because I am on a well with 35psi, with this booster pump I now have 90 psi. This pump along with the 150gpd upgrade kit I am getting great results. I run it 6-8 hours at a time and it barely gets warm. A bit pricey but works great..

overdue By Carlos on 7/22/12
Carlos would recommend this product to a friend
I have three RO systems my main aquarium water system has two 75 GPD membranes that produce a total of 150 GPD. I have good water pressure but I wanted good control. Typical RO systems with mechanical ASO valves are extremely unreliable. With this system using a booster pump and a pressure switch and an added normally closed 24V solenoid make it extremely reliable for my application. The pump is extremely quiet and produces a lot of quality water my TDS before the booster was 7-16 PPM and now it is 5-7 PPM before the DI stage. I fill my 25 gallon container in about 3 hours so I'm actually producing over 150 GPD (200 GPD). I also have a system using a 6800 booster pump and I have to say this pump is a huge improvement. I strongly recommend using a 24v Solenoid if you are using a float switch way over an ASO. Great value great performer the kit really needs to include a solenoid to shut the water to the membrane for that added security. I found that my ASO often turned on after the tank was full wasting water to drain I guess all I can say is an ASO valve is better than nothing.

Keeps Production Going By Pet Store George on 7/18/12
Pet Store George would recommend this product to a friend
I have a dog groomer in my pet shop and before I got this pump, my RO production would shut down when the grooming was bathing a dog. With this pump, I can keep producing all day long at a constant rate. This has helped me a lot.
