Hiya,

Just wondering on average how long does it take to fill up a 5 gallon tub with your RODI Units?
 
I have a 7 stage 150gpd with a boost pump, 25-30 gl in about 4 hours. Water pressure through the system is 90psi. Before the boost pump, 25-30 gl was more than a day.
 
200 GPD unit, takes about 1 hour for 5 gallons with semi dirty filters
I have a 50GPD with new filters, takes about 3-4 hours for 5 gallons, pressure gage reads reads between 55 - 60
 
I range about 1-3 hours depending on the temperature of the water
 
My 100 gallon RODI I just got brand new takes 45 mins to fill a 5 gal bucket, not all the way to the top, I stop it at about 3 inches down.
 
Idunno. Could be from pushing water through 2 RO membranes & 2 Di cartridges. I could probably add a booster pump and raise it to 90 psi, and I may someday, but I'm content with what I have for now. :)
 
Summer 1 hour -- winter about 1.5 hrs.
90GPD 5 stage Spectrapure unit.
 
Will all depend on your water pressure as even the 100GPD units are rated at 100 gallons at a certain psi. If you can get the rated rate then you just need to take the GPD and divide it by 24 to get the gallons/hour and if you need it broken down even further you can take that and divide it by 60 to get the gallons/minute.
 
7 stage- 150gpd starting TDS is 545
Takes spot on 30 min to fill 5 gallons with 80-82 psi
