I HAVE A 100GPD UNIT FROM FREEDOM. MY READING HAS NOW GONE UP TO 7PPM. CAN I REFILL THE CARTRIDGE WITH RESIN OR IS IT JUST AS GOOD TO ORDER A NEW CARTRIDGE. DOES ANYONE KNOW OR DO THIS.

Is it the 700ml light grey coloured one?
If it is then it can be refilled

[karygate]

mine is white which has a screw lid ,in it resin and a sponge disc. probably is about 700ml

Yes tip out the old resin and fill with new.  It would be a waste of money buying the cartridge as well.

whats the difference between softening resin and mixed resin, which do i need (wintecs)

[a-r window cleanin]

I refill mine with the mixed resin
Is your cartridge after the RO?

[karygate]

yes

[a-r window cleanin]

mixed resin
just out of interest how long has your last lot of resin lasted

[karygate]

i would say about 2000l . where is the best place to get some from

[matt]

RO MNA does nice small bags of resin, he used to do 250 ml and 1 L bags

[karygate]

how long does resin last stored .

[buzz06]

hi ive found that keeping yr bag of resin sealed & out of direct sunlight it will basically last as long as u need it to.
however the 2 di bottles trick will save u lots of dosh if u are doing di only, search this site if u dont know how to set it up

[karygate]

how full do you fill it.

[m.b.s.]

who are you asing the question to

[matt]

how full do you fill it.

fill it to the top, put the sponge back in and tighten end cap, then give it a shake and tap it a few times, this will fill in any gaps, then unscrew and top up the gap

I but my resin from gardiners the 1ltr and 5 ltr resin come's in plastic tubs.
I now just buy the 5 ltrs as i don't use much resin anyway.

Dave,

They wanted £30.55 inc vat for delivery for the two bags as I was about to place a order.Is that normal price for delivery?
Is there another site that will charge less (postage)as I'll do need some resin?

Cheers....Tony

thanks everyone. bought  half a bag, changed the resin inside and was surprised that immediately it is coming out at 00ppm . thanks for all the help and saving me a few quid as a new cartridge was 10 pounds. buying half a bag it works out at approx 4pounds per fill instead.
