I have a R.O. system and want to change the output. What do I need to buy to do this. Just how far can you go with a 24 gallon system, 75 or more?
 
So, thats it? I just need a larger membrane and a restrictor? The restrictor will be a larger model then I'm guessing? Thanks
 
Yup. My RO/DI is a 100GPD unit but finding quality 100GPD membranes is difficult, so I actually went down to a 75GPD membrane and changed out the restrictor. You just have to make sure the membrane is the right size for your casing, if the membrane is too big to fit you will have to replace the RO membrane casing as well.
 
you can also stack ro casing on top of each other , so you carbon and filter feed 2 seperate mambranes there for doubleing your output. you would have to check how to plumb them tho as i havent a clue .
