You don't need amazing water pressure to run an RO/DI. It may take a little white, but you can always just leave a tub filling with water (I recommend a float switch with an alarm if you walk far enough away!!)

You don't need amazing water pressure but if your water pressure isn't up to specification the efficiency drops way off and you waste alot of water. The reject percentage increases because there is not enough pressure to push water through the membrane as designed.

In this case a booster pump is recommended. The savings on your water bill will pay for the booster pump in no time.

I don't have a water bill I rent an apt. In a private house.. But I realized my bathroom sink has a bit more pressure.. Idk I think about the waste of money I spend on every water change and it gets me pissed. So I guess I'll buy one so how can I increase my pressure with out spending crazy for a booster pump and how can I install it under the sink?
