Remember, by this time tomorrow you will have 75 to 100 gallons of RO/DI water
Not necessarily. That will depend on his water pressure. I have a 75gpd membrane, but with my water pressure it takes a good 2 days to fill my 30g container.
Have you looked into adding a booster pump? That might help you out and get a little more good water.
can a bad ro membrane be a cause for more rejected water than good water?
Just a FYI. I saw a presentation on RO/DI units given by Russ with Buckeye Field Supply maybe 2 summers ago. He says not to think about the bad water as "waste" water. It is needed to wash your RO membrane, keeping it clean and from scaling up. That is the reason for the 4:1 ratio. You could do a 1:1 ratio, but your membrane will clog up pretty fast and you will have to buy another one much sooner than than the normal expected lifespan.
