But looking at the cheap replacement filters, I'd rather build my own. I do buy mostly NSF certified components from well known manufacturers. I'll make a new post on more specific part's list - expanding on my previous lists. Configuration is the same, can be found from most websites, such as the permeate pump site.<BR/><BR/>For your particular case. I always recommend 75 gpd Filmtech membrane no matter what. That's greater than 3 gal per hour. The spec is poorer for higher flow rates. Check price on eBay and on the net. The lower price for lower flow rate membranes is not sensitive unless you are a volume manufacturer of complete systems :-)<BR/><BR/>I recommend a permeate pump, the performance is measurably better with it, just not the magic bullet. You need the higher cut off valve with it - I have 50 psi output from my tank with input at 75 psi. If you don't use permeate pump and use conventional cutoff valve, you should still be able to get about 30 psi to your fridge, but that will be marginal.<BR/><BR/>If you go for the permeate pump, there's one manufacturer and two sizes. Pick the bigger flow one suitable for 75 gpd. There is a click noise every few seconds when the tank is refilling. Like the clicking sound produced by snapping you fingers softly. It's not a problem if you don't sleep near the pump, or don't have pets that do. You won't notice it unless you listen to quiet music or having quiet time near the pump. Also, 75 gpd refills the complete empty tank in one hour. Just don't drink a lot of water and then go to sleep in the kitchen :-)<BR/><BR/>The only component that need calculation is the flow restrictor, but the size are listed on most websites - buy one that fits 75 gpd.<BR/><BR/>The other thing that need calculation is your water use, which gives you an estimate when to change carbon filters. Though a year is probably overkill for the high chlorine absorption capacity MatrikX filters. (They have diff types.)<BR/><BR/>The PlayerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953059524835334184.post-57632362084772447782008-07-03T14:11:00.000-07:002008-07-03T14:11:00.000-07:00I would greatly appreciate any advice you could gi...I would greatly appreciate any advice you could give me regarding an RO system that would work with a stand alone ice maker. My cold water supply has a water pressure of 60 psi. According to the ice maker specs, the pressure of the water supply from the RO system to the ice maker needs to be between 30 and 120 psi. The RO system must provide 1 gal. water per hour to the ice maker. <BR/><BR/>I would like to connect the RO system to a dedicated faucet as well as run it to the ice maker. Demand for purified water through the faucet would be limited to drinking and some cooking. Is there a system out there that would fit my needs?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953059524835334184.post-82919267628618294142008-03-18T22:15:00.000-07:002008-03-18T22:15:00.000-07:00you should check out Perfect Water ..... available...you should check out Perfect Water ..... available only online at perfectwaterguy.com ... avail April 1st ......
