Oh yes I do!

Far far cheaper than ressin.

Mike at cleatech worked it out I would go through 2 sacks of resin a year!

Thats over £120 per year.

I bought my ro for £79.99

Just changed the filters after 18 months for £20

Quids in already

I would get about 57 - 60 litres in the same amount of time - but mine is 300 gpd.  Looks like you're doing OK.

You have to be joking you can't possibly neglect ALL the benefits of pure water on demand for the sake of less than a hundred quid per year

[jouk45]

my very thoughts,

[NWH]

25ltrs in 3 hours,are you joking.

[macmac]

25ltrs in 3 hours,are you joking.

Man, you'd only be able to work fridays, monday to thursday making pure water.

summat not reyt there.

Hi Mac,in 3hrs my 500ltr tank would be overflowing big time.40x40 is the way to fill a static mega quick,i could go out in the morning having filled up 500ltrs from static and come back at lunchtime and re fill.

I fill my 400ltr in 15 mins straight from tap, mega water pressure here & DI only.

sorry matthew, i am not having a dig at you,  you know me better than that m8,   i am just surprised at seeing you use an ro,
it just seems to me a waste of time, for a few quide, matthew your water is 20 tds am sure,     dont think it can be beaten on this forum, have you calulated it, and is it saving you money,    i have an open mind,   so i am listening very seriously,

The other point joe is that the method for working out how much pure water an amount of resin will make is missleading, as using 2 DI units in sequence & shaking the vessels when tds rises more than doubles it's usable life. this is certainly the case with dowex resin. It's unreal how long dowex will hold a low tds reading for. I have one 11ltr vessel that hit 001 tds about 6-7 weeks ago & (with shaking) is still only reading 005 & is pre-filtering the new vessel.

Guys o guys o guys!

I dont run resin along side my ro. Just ro on its own.

The reason I dont want to use resin is because I use a backpack............

My tank in the van is full with 000ppm water and I have a submersible pump in it to fill up my backpack in seconds!!!!

If i was to fill the van tank with tap water and di it as I use it, I would have to use my shurflo pump to fill it and that would take ages!!!!!!! (I've done it )

I also like to be on a job without having to worry about resin rising. I always know I have 000ppm water with me.

I know ro is slower to produce but for me its easier.

I hope you can see MY point for filtering my water that way?

 

P.S joe, i'll sort you out when you come up this way!!
