RO system to control water parameters worth it?

Finally received the booster pump (was on back order), so after this weekend will start kicking it into gear. First, just need to work out how all the connections hook up lol. With high pressure and low pressure switches built in, that have their own connections plus the usual inflow/outflow connections, it sounds like it will be a fun little project all on its own getting it up and running. The pressure switches are for the auto-shutoff when the water pressure reduces to a point but also they work with float valves etc at the other end.

I think once fully RO, that will be game changer no.

I had the same issue. My house pressure was sitting at 32 PSI on my initial RO test. Now with the booster pump it's running at 85 PSI and can make 150 gallons a day, with MUCH less waste water. I actually had to turn the pump pressure down a little as the system I am using can develop minor connection leaks if the PSI is 90 or higher. Once you get it set up, you will love it!

This number on the gauge is looking much better now, took it straight from 30 to 90 once I hooked the pump in.
Its only a 50GPD system so I'll run with that as its only for filling one tank but can always upgrade later to 100 if I feel is needed or for extra tanks.

The TDS is one coming out of the membrane filter and zero out of the final DI resin stage so the last stage doesn't have to work so hard lol.

The low pressure switch is hooked up so if the water stops or reduces sufficiently, it will turn the pump off which is nice. The high pressure switch I've not currently hooked up as that is used in conjunction with a float valve which I don't have yet. They mentioned and the manual also states that this pump isn't as compatible with a traditional float valve and would need to use an optical one. (which of course are way more expensive). Anyone had experience with those?

This is why I'm getting RO.
Only a few weeks ago, dKH was 6 & dGH was 8 out of the tap.
Today dKH is 2 & dGH is 4.

Constantly going up and down. Now we know plants value stability above almost anything else, that can't be good.
