Default RO vs. Tap

All
Since my Tap water, (Filtered Well Water - PH 7.6) PH has gone up a few points I started reading around.

It seemes that RO/DI is poular and wated to get some feedback.
I have a 3 Gallon RO unit that attaches to my sink for drinking water. The PH from there is 6.8 which would likley end up too low on the PH side even after adding the salt. Maybe 8.2. Now sure whats better, 8.2 or 8.6+

Problem is, with a 3 gallon reserve, it's not enough for even a small water change. I know, get a bigger reserve. OK, the next problem is that the water trickles out and it takes about 20 minutes to drain the 3 gallons.

Of the units described in this forum, can anyone tell me if they act differently than mine ?


\Cheers.
