you would see additional benefit. If it's worth it to you is completely up to you. You would be better off in the 70-80 PSI range if I remember correctly.

Pretty sure the booster pump increases the efficiency of the unit, so instead of 1:6 ratio of good water to waste water you can close to 1:1.

Pretty sure the booster pump increases the efficiency of the unit, so instead of 1:6 ratio of good water to waste water you can close to 1:1.Is that 50 psi going into the unit, or going into the RO membrane? And what's the TDS reading coming out of the RO stage.

I just installed mine over the last week, and purchased a pump ahead of time assuming I'd need to use it since I have a well.

My water pressure was 50 psi

My pressure going into the RO membrane was 42, and I was getting TDS ranging from 60-80 coming out of my RO. I installed the Pump and the RO stage dropped that TDS to about 8.

The higher the pressure the better it works, but if yours is working well enough, then I'd sell it. If the TDS is high, I'd add it on and compare it.
