Does the 3.2 gallon tank accommodate for a family of 4? I'm worried about not having enough water when I need it.

This unit makes 75 gallons of RO water a day, which means it makes a gallon of water in about 20 minutes (or an 8 ounce glass of water in about 75 seconds). We use RO water for all drinking and cooking (we cook a lot). We have not had any problems with the unit keeping up with us (and our two dogs, which only get RO water).

Yep. I have 3 kids and my wife and I. We drink a lot of water. We have health issues so we drink more than the average user. It holds up great.

Absolutely! me and my wife drink nothing but water and use the water from the iSpring system and have it hooked up to the refrigerator and it also makes ice. We often have family of more than 7 people at one sitting and have yet to run out of water. the Ispring system comes with a 3.2 gallon tank so even if you were able to drink 2 gallons of water in 1 hr it would fill right back up. I see no issue with not having enough water.

Hey alexis Yes I believe you will be fine If you are concerned try drawing a gallon or two and place it in a glass container in the frig or just put in sunlight on your counter it will provide additional purification. I hope that helps! and congradulation for making a healthy decission for your family! Flouride and chlorine are a huge problem in our water supply! Richard

Probably be Ok. You can try then add the five or nine gallon tank in-line. Depends on your water used.

You can fill it up either way, just make sure you keep an eye on the gauge and slow down when almost full, kind of hard to move when full though, I just fill it with a five gallon tank and make a few trips.

trying to figure out if this would hold enough water or do I need one with a tank?

a little over 5 will be enough. The level shold always be checked with the ram of the cylynder retracted fully and the pump not running. the tank willhold much more but the site window will show full and the machine will operate properly with between 6 and 7 gal. of hydrolic fluid.

I can never go above 2. Living in a RV and limited to 400 SQ ft, 5 would run me out besides using to much gas for no reason. A 25 lb TANK WOULD LAST ME FOR SEVERAL MONTHS as many in this park are using.

I think fitting a new filtration system in the place of this one is possible because it just hangs at the back of the tank. If you don't overload the tank this filtration system is just perfect. I have 3 tetras and two dwarf frogs and this filtration hasn't failed me .. great tank overall !

Yes. We went back and forth on it for a while and settled on the 33 gallon. It's been plenty big for us.

Put a bottle and a half in when your tank is almost empty. Then fill the tank. That would be enough.

Hi, I agree with other comments. I would suggest that you would need to cover most of the base area in order to get adequate filtration circulation for the tank size.

Not for this unit. It has a small water tank that holds a little more than1/4 gallon

Four is not two, so you need room, and the installation is the same. With four gallons make sure you strap it, especially if you have a pump. Good luck, I have lowered my pressure to 12 to 15 lbs. as I installed it after two hot water supply lines.

No. I wouldn't. This is an expansion tank, not a holding tank. Only holds 2.1 Gallons anyway (as mentioned in the main product title.) That size is just to compensate for the difference in physical space required between cold and hot water. It requires pressure to hold that 2.1 gallons as well, otherwise it gets pushed back out.

Hi,I have a 10 gallon tank and it's fine! I didn't think there would be a smaller one. It definitely does the job. X

ProPur has a King which holds 4 gallons. I also carry another line which has a 6 Gallon capacity. Let me know which interests you and we can chat more.

It would take 40 minutes to fill your 5 gallon tank, and if you had any leaks in your system at all it would be running all the time to try to maintain. Wouldn't recommend it for that large of a tank. I have a 4 gallon tank on my truck and tried to use it for air bags, horn etc.. took 20 min to get it to 40 psi with no leaks in system. Was pretty disappointed with it.

Probably everyone is different. Our now considerable experience is "the bucket" needs to be filled about 2 1/2 times. That's using the 7 gallon "bucket" from home colonics.
