Since December, the water pressure on my RO/DI gauge has been steadily decreasing. My water pressure for the house is still very good: 65 PSI. However, the RO/DI back in December it was ~50-60 PSI; now it's 25!

Of course, I've seen a corresponding drop in output too so I know the gauge is not faulty.

So what do I need to investigate to get my RO/DI's pressure back?!

Thanks in advance,

Bob
 
If you used the connector that punches a hole into an existing pipe you may have something clogging it. I would check the line for a clog and if it's clear change out the sediment and carbon filters on the unit and see if the pressure improves. If it doesn't you may want to look into a booster pump.

Bob,
When was the last time you changed your sediment prefilters and your carbon block? It could be as simple as your prefilters getting clogged up and restircting water flow thru them.
