1) Most folks don't have gauges, so I wasn't expecting that.
2) Most folks have more along the lines of 35-45 psi water.
3) I assume you replaced the pre-membrane filters too, so now I am baffled.

I have the same manufacturer's 100gpd system going into an atmospheric tank in the GH, and I get about 50-60 gpd routinely. I also have a 60 gpd unit with bladder tank in the house, feeding the fridge for ice and water, but it also has a permeate pump, so i don't know it's output.

PS: I grew up in DC, so you know my football issues.
