Good read Gentlemen. my pressure gauge says 70 psi but want to see what ratio I get. Thanks !

Thanks for helping me, your information solved my problem! I put a ball valve on it and dialed it back to a 4:1 ration which was 1/4 cup vs a full cup in 15 seconds. I'm getting so much more rodi water now and my pressure is 55-60 psi! And I'm still dialed in at 0 TDS! And I also called the person I bought the unit from and asked him about a flow restrictor and he told me he forgot to give it to me! Thank you so much @Potatohead, since I got this unit in I felt like I was missing a piece of the puzzle and you helped me find it! I'll sleep good tonight thank you!
Edit: #mods can we get this guy/gal a cookie!?

You're welcome, that's what R2R is for!

If you are up at 70 you will probably be a bit less, like 3.5:1. The more pressure the less waste you will have.

Do I need a flow restrictor? Bc I don't have one

YES!!! Buy the one from BRS that you can turn the knob on & off for flushing. The flow restrictor can sometimes be inside the tubing coming off the wastewater line. It's a different version, the capillary type.

The restrictor is what forces the water through the membrane. Without it, mist water goes around the membrane and out the wastewater.

Also, try nit to run other water sources in your house when the rodi is on. It'll lower the pressure to the machine.
