    The driving factor with most domestic well systems is pressure. DO NOT reset the pressure switch as someone recommended! Why cycle your well pump causing earcy failure when a RO booster pump is fairly economical and only boosts the RO not everything in your home and landscape. Pressure switches are set at 30-40 psi for a reason and I'll bet a dollar to a donut any changes will void any warranty or guarantee you have with the pump or system supplier.

    If you have 40+ psi available you are good, if it drops below 40 psi though you would need a small 24v DC RO booster pump.
