good point mate. ive read all the posts and as you ve seen i posted to find out what i needed and most people advised on the ro unit as it would save me in the future, as i have no experiance with wfp ive just bought one. but after what you said im concidering di only.
simply cos its maintance free and as you needed it.
mines around 85ppm im on a trolley 3 days, 6 hrs day
what you think it l cost?
Yes, + no storage tank, no booster pump, no transfere hose, no waste water etc, etc.
just goes to show how un-knowlagable some people are with the advise you've been given.
all approx- & + vat
2 x 11ltr DI vessels 100 quid (stream doing 13ltr ones for 50 quid at mo')
1 x 25kg bag of DOWEX resin 69 quid (wintecs doing free delivery over 30 quid)
3 x lengths of normal garden hose (free if you already have a hose pipe)
a hose tap connector & a few female hozelok-type hose connectors (10 quid)
So about 180 quid ( 200 tops to be safe) + vat & delivery ( although, like i say, if all come from wintecs delivery is free, but i dont know how much their DI's are).
With your stat's i would estimate resin costs for a year to be about 100 quid, but you need further advise on how to make the resin last longer, which i will give you if you decide to go this route. it's simple & takes about 1 minute to do.
