I don't waste the RO waste water. I water plants with it.
Scoop has a whole house system. So he would have thousands of gallons of waste water. That would require some complex plumbing to use in an irrigation system. Did you do that? Love to hear about it if true.

With the exception of irrigation failures, my water bills are always in the $40/month range. And most of that is irrigation. As usual, spouting off with outdated, second-hand information.

I quoted the literature above and asked what your views were. You of course did not answer. I doubt you know.

I have posted the information repeatedly, including my water usage data. I can't help those who choose to be willfully ignorant.

Bull. What is the efficiency of the your whole house RO? Where did you ever publish that? And what is the disposition on the waste water?

I agree it can be used for landscaping but that also takes storage tanks and secondary pumps etc.

For what must be the 20th time in 20 threads about water purification systems, MY AVERAGE MONTHLY WATER BILL IS $40. (Usually it's $39 and change.)

That's basically the same as every other household in Las Vegas. The only thing I care about is how the water tastes, and how much sludge is removed. Take your efficiency studies, roll them up into a tight little ball, and cram them.

So as I said you don't know. Thought not.
