GrowoniX EX Series Tall Reverse Osmosis System - 1000 GPD - High Flow Cold Water Membrane - Double Pre-Filter - KDF

Purified Water at a 1 to 1 Ratio - 1000 GPD Output

Mineral-heavy tap water makes nutrient mixes hard to control and shortens the life of hydroponic equipment. This reverse osmosis system removes dissolved solids with a polyamide membrane and tall pre-filters that protect it from sediment and chlorine. It is rated for 97 percent nominal salt rejection and a 1 to 1 system ratio.

At 1000 GPD (about 42 GPH), this unit suits growers who fill reservoirs regularly in indoor rooms or small commercial spaces. It has no built-in pump, so it relies on your feed water pressure, and booster pump upgrades are available.

Key Features & Benefits

• High flow cold water membrane — a single polyamide GXM-1000-HF membrane produces 1000 GPD.
• Tall pre-filter housings — a 4510 sediment filter and carbon stage give a rated 17,000 gallons of carbon capacity.
• Membrane flush valve — lets you flush the membrane as part of routine care.
• Stainless steel membrane housing — polypropylene filter housings and a powder coated steel bracket keep the frame sturdy.
• Liquid-filled gauges — show pressure at a glance.

Who Should Use GrowoniX EX Series Tall 1000 GPD RO System

Hydroponic growers who need a high volume of low-TDS water for nutrient solutions, and who want more pre-filter capacity than a standard-height housing offers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this system include a pump?
A: No. It has no pump and works from feed water pressure of 40 to 80 psi. If your pressure is low, booster pump upgrades are listed by the manufacturer.

Q: What does a 1 to 1 system ratio mean?
A: It means the system sends about one gallon to waste for each gallon of purified water it makes. Lower waste ratios save water.

Q: What feed water can it handle?
A: Feed water should have under 2000 TDS, a turbidity of 1 NTU or less, and chlorine under 0.1 ppm at the membrane. Feed temperature should be 43 to 113 °F.

Q: Does the carbon stage remove chloramine?
A: Chloramine removal requires the optional KDF85 catalytic carbon upgrade. Check your water supplier's report to see which disinfectant is in your water.

Q: What is permeate?
A: Permeate is the purified water that passes through the membrane. The waste stream carries away the rejected minerals.

Q: What power does it need?
A: The listed electrical rating is 115V 60Hz single phase with a 5.6 A draw.
