where to get a ro/di boost pump
Since moving my ro unit has not produced near as much water as before. There is definately a major decrease in water pressure in the new house so I guess thats the reason. I looked on Kent Marine's site and they list a rp50 and rp100 boost pump to boost the water pressure to the recommended minimum pressure of 60 psi for my ro. The question is where do I buy one and how much $? I've searched several sites and can't find one for sale. I've asked the lfs and they just gave me a dumb look so HELP please.

the Kent pump is the one I wanted to buy but I'm not finding it anywhere. The Kent site gives info about the pump but no price or info on where to buy it.

That would be just my luck  That's about the only think that I would not need with my water pressure at 75~85 PSI
Thats not to say that I wouldn't find something to do with one!
 Maybe a second floor RO drinking water outlet
