In our 25 years of research and customer feedback, we've found that the
majority of the membranes operate at 80% capacity regardless of the
brand.
GPD refers to gallons per day. Reverse Osmosis systems are rated in the
number of gallons they produce in 24 hours.
Only under perfect conditions does the membrane perform at full GPD
capacity. The performance depends on water quality, pressure, and
temperature.
For every gallon produced, the system will waste roughly 3 gallons of
water.
To maintain a 99% rejection rate, it is imperative that you disregard the
amount of wastewater. This is a standard industry norm regardless of the
brand. Wastewater can be reduced by adding an ERP pump or a water saver
kit while still maintaining a 98 to 99% rejection rate.
