Ro/di

Damn, the price keeps getting better! I may be able to afford one next week afterall. Thanks aquaboy!

What pressure does it need to run (50psi or 65psi)?

 

i have no idea. I just hooked it up to me faucet and let er rip Let me check Oh one thing though. I would unscrew all the fittings, re wrap them in teflon tape and screw in tightly. They skimped the tape on mine

 

let me get the manual....

 

it says minimun 35 PSi and 60 PSi for best results

 

Tanks! er, I mean thanks!

 

If you're going to get that one ^^^ and it seems like a great price, then here is what I would do to change the set up so it deionizes better.
1. Take the top 2 horizontal DI chambers and put them aside (maybe use the di polymer resin).
2. Then either: just use the 3 verticle chambers for sediment filter, charcoal, and make the 3rd one the DI chamber using this BFS-69 Refillable cartridge - $10.00 at http://www.buckeyefieldsupply.com/showproducts.asp?Sub=109&showspecials=109 and you can refill it with your DI resin when you need to. Just re-plumb so the RO membrane output line (not waste water) goes into that 3rd chamber.
Or just keep 2 sediment filters, the charcoal filter, and add one of these BFS-72 Add on DI kit with color changing resin at http://www.buckeyefieldsupply.com/showproducts.asp?Category=39&Sub=127
to put inline after your RO membrane.


Edit: I didn't see if that kit came with any extra hose, shut off valves, or float valve that you might want/need with your setup. They sell all the tubing and connectors at Home Depot if you need something last minute ;D.
Anyone have any experience using that $9 Ebay TDS meter? Any good?

 

Horizontal D.I's are next to worthless .

 

Thanks! and your Welcome (To Reeron)
