get an upgrade kit, and add another 100/150gpd membrane.

or depending on how much you spent sell and get a new bigger one, which would be easier.

i had a 200gpd and sold it, then got a 450gpd, now have a 600gpd (warranty replacement for the 450gpd)

in 3 hours it will do what the first took 4, 8 hour days.

Yes gto is right. I have a 450 GPD RO and I wouldn't use anything smaller.
Add another membrane fed off the waste pipe of the first membrane and maybe add a booster pump also if water pressure is low.

I'm having the same trouble at the moment. my pure is taking about 3 hours to fill a 25ltr container and thats using a 200gpd set up. I have had to slow the waste down by adding a valve before the flow restrictor. I have no idea if this is right/wrong or damaging anything, but it slows the waste for the time being.Huh???
