Oh no 30 tds
« on: August 27, 2013, 09:07:55 pm »
Been cleaning the last few days with a tds of 30.
Only just checked the tds and my own fault thought it was fine as not long changed the resin,
Will they leave all marks with 30 tds?
Not had anyone phone up complaining yet,
Touch wood will be ok.

A good chance you will have some spot, factors are how much you rinse, weather or not you usually clean the frame and if it was hot and sunny,  on your side (hopefully) is that most customers are regulars and you've been cleaning them for a while, they most likely wont be checking that closely, and many will forgive a dodgy clean here and there but if you get a complaint go out and reclean ASAP

30 will be fine.

Cleaned with 54 yesterday & first job this morning! ;D

Gave the vessel a shake to finish the day off with 006. I inspected the first job & on the odd window I could make out the odd faint water spot but nothing anyone else would notice.

Changed resin when I got home. Tulsion has become pants, I'm going back to Dowex.

Its alright for you boys. Where I am is near to a whole load of limestone quarries, The result is that everything gets covered in a fine cement like dust.. Its a flipping nightmare for spotting.. TDS 000 or nothing…

my tap tds is 30-35 so am i wasting money even buying resin?

are you guys really confident that the windows are coming up clear and spot free?

and why do some of you seem careless when it comes to purifying water?

ive gone up to 015 before changing resin but not any higher.

price higher/work harder!

Try it. Clean your own windows with tap water.

I wouldn't use 54 normally, I got caught out- Tulsion MB115 just doesn't seem to be what it used to :-\

I would happily clean with 20-30  on a regular basis though. ;)

I've got a feeling some of these posts are wind-ups  :) .
The real test is looking at the "clean" glass from inside on a bright day.

Why do people use resin if you can get it out your ro at less than 20?

I'm certainly NOT joking!

54 parts per "MILLION" it's not milk is it! ::)roll

OK, it's not ideal but it ain't gonna have you in major trouble either.

As said, I'd happily clean with 30ppm & have done many times without issue.

Some people maybe need to look at things logically instead of being "sheep" ;)
