Have you actually checked it? I bought the 60gpd equivalent and it's pushing 72gpd
Drip system.....drip rate help

I originally bought the 40 from them with the full carbon drip system...and i found that was doing about 50-55 gpd....
To be honest i dont think any of the regulators or emitters out there are close to acurate
Which makes it really uard to calculate when the filters need replacing
what I test is nitrates in the tank water, and chloramines in the drip output. I used to drip 40 GPD, and nitrates starting climbing slowly, so I went to 60 GPD, and nitrates don't creep anymore. That's what I'm after, so I've never tested the actual drip rate.
What I test more often than anything is for presence of chlorine in the drip output--I've never seen any. I went 6 months on my last set of filter cartridges, which is better than 3 months when I very first started running the drip. So, I'm stoked.
