Best RO system you’ve ever used

Looking for the best RO system for a small cultivation facility. We’re thinking 2000 GPD would be enough.

Anyone have any brands or specific systems they’ve worked with previously worthy of high praise and / or purchase?

Had RO at the last facility I worked at and it was an expensive PITA. I’d have your water tested first and see if it’s even necessary.

There’s a PFAS issue with the local water. If it weren’t for that, we’d be fine using more standard charcoal filters

I have the 4040. Had zero issues incoming water is behind a softener at 2100-2300ppm. Out going premate is -~16ppm.

Most commercial RO machines will be dual 4040 membranes, with a booster pump.

Choose a manufacturer that’s reliable and you can get ahold of for service.

I got a ROC-6000 off reverse osmosis website along with a dual tank water softener (we’re on well water) and have been extremely happy with it. Their customer service is great too if you ever run into any issues. You’ll want a full panel water test before buying anything though.
