I'm needing to replace the ASO valve on our RO system. Since I'm doing that, I was wondering if it's worth it to add a permeate pump. I only have a 10 gallon tank and change out about 2 gallons per week. Other than that, we use the RO water for drinking and cooking. Not sure it's worth the added cost and complexity. But I thought I'd ask since I don't know that much about them. Thanks

I saw no difference when I got rid of mine.

I have one on my home system and it made a considerable difference in the pressure at the sink. However, if you aren't using a storage tank I don't it will be worth it for you.
