ive got a ro-man 450 gpd ro, with a booster pump.
as i said, how much water do you need and how quick to you need it, and how much have you got to spend on one

id use maybe 200ltrs a day, i dont have much money to be honest an i need the water quick i suppose, tar

ive never used one of these, but for £230 with booster pumps it seems good value.

i think nat jones from the acs forum has one and seems to be happy with it.

yes the bottom one is a tad better ;D

 the one from wcw looks good, but it would run better with a booster pump and it would be easier to source spares and new filter etc, than the vyair one i put up

hi GB dont forget about pure freedom, thats were i got my DIY unit from. its very easy to set up , if i can do it you can. i went for the 200gpd day RO ( my TDS is in the 500's) . the RO takes it down to 28 ppm then i have 2 DI units which polish it off to 000ppm. dont get the pole ive never used mine, got a gardiners 27 clx. i got the 250lt tank but i find this is too small now( i drive a combo ). my tank is strapped to the bulkhead, and more recently ive had a catflap fitted to the rear doors for security reason ( i will post a pic ). regards

whats the difference between baffles tanks and unbaffled?

unbaffled is a hollow tank, baffled has compartments in the tank

a baffled tank has a plastic insert inside to stop the water sloshing about too much

the advantage is that with a baffled tank, the water doesnt slosh about so much when you go around corners.

heres a like to purefreedoms diy set ups, give them a call and ask if you could get rid of the pole in the package and upgrade the ro to a 450 gpd unit instead.
 then buy a slx/clx pole from gardiners

Look through Alex's back posts before taking his comments on poles/brushes at face value.  He's a Gardiners basher by trade.
