10 is quite acceptable

[Ian Lancaster]

10 is quite acceptable

Agreed

We sometimes run as high as 15 with no problems, but for safety try not to operate higher than 10

10 is quite acceptable

Agree. Even a bit more.

By accident, last year I cleaned a country mansion with 036 ppm. I cleaned it inside & out & was there for nearly 2 days so it got properly inspected. The results = SPOTLESS!!

mines normally 0 but when resin getting old i have gone to 005 ... my 4040 produces 009 - 011 before di vessel, have on good authority u can go to 030 without problems but wouldnt try it myself @ 030

going to do my house @ 011 when this months resin expires and see what the results are .... im expecting all will be fine.

I think MIKE CAM was going to run with just 4040 water when his resin expired last month so wonder how he got on ?

[Lee GLS]

Blue Frog did some of his work straight from the ro as an experiment, think the tds was 10, witout any problems

[woody1]

i am having problems with my new ro and di its a 300 litre but the pressure is crap its new but the tds going in to the di is 12 but its coming out at 2 its one of them liuttle di that are same size as the pre filters

You're right Ian, i just use  the water from my 40/40 now and its about the same as yours, In fairness each pump on my van still runs through a DI resin vessel which where last changed about August and i've no intention of replacing the resin.

It really depends on whether you advertise the fact that you use pure water to clean windows or not.

If your cards/website/ van etc state that you use pure water to clean, then the tds needs to be 00, otherwise it would be a breach of contract. ( I doubt if anybody would sue, other than a pedantic trading standards dude).

To get the windows clean it really should be 00, but 10-20 is ok.

Depends how critical (or silly) you want to be. Our tds units measure in ppm (parts per million) However, ppb (parts per billion would show a totally different reading!

[weetot]

Nice one.

Is it, that the windowcleaner who asks advice from members of this forum, whom you give advice to, time and time again  regarding tds readings choose to ignore the 005, 006 or whatever readings they are, say that, the readngs are 035-036-046 whatever the reading is, and they are getting away with it).......................................
Maybe the customer is ignoring the fact that their windows may have the odd few spots on, but I am tired of tellling the man who does the windows, so I shall put up with it, cos Health & Safety Guidelines are saying, thats the way it is!

A SMALL RANT.

Change your filters like 'purefreedom of whoever you buy off, tell you to, or you will lose your're custards eventually.

Take the advice, or sod off and go to another forum.

 

[Steven01903]

At last

[weetot]

Apologies for the last rant, but its no bloody wonder that its so easy to pick up work with windowcleaners who are so complacent, thinking that everythings OK with their work.

Sometimes (in my experience, the custards are frightened, to complain) and keep the same windy that they have had for years, and are scared to complain cos' he's a nice enough guy, and he brings his small daughter when he collects of a night-time.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU,VE GOT, TIL' YOU,VE  LOST IT.

Lazy and cheap springs to mind.

Woody you need to get the presure up, those 10" jobs are a pain in the a**e.
I have one running at home while I am out I at first could not get bellow 3 uped the presure and it droped to 1 ( great) stuck on another 10" with resin, took output of first through the second one and allways 0 now. the second lot of resin usualy lasts about for about 5000 ltrs before moving up.
"O" forgot and you can get away with 2!

[weetot]

You can always get away with 002.

Well there you go.

Time to leave a very very very sllooow forum, and don' take any advice, when they ask you for it"!
