Good timing dave, just change my 4040 for the first time. Didn’t last long as I think my pressure was no good. So Got booster and new membrane and I’m now getting 320ppm down to 16ppm. Then zero after my resin. That’s 95% Hope it’s stays at 16ppm consistently now with the booster. Great video 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Dave I have started to harvest rain water from my sheds which is coming in at around 10 to 20 PPM would I still need to use Filter blocks like your set up I was going to use double DI vessels and from there to the tank also could you recommend a pump I could use the water would have about 30 to 35 feet to travel from my shed to the van thanks all the best Eric ☘️.
Could the 95% 'waste be used through a pressure washer? So tank for 100% pure for windows etc, and a tank for the waste? For pressure washing? Say 600l tank on van for waste and 250 for pure?
How old is it? it could have become blocked over time and may need changing. Check all the connections first to see if there is a problem. If all that's ok see what the TDS of any water that comes direct from the membrane is. If its over 90% of the water going in it will probably need changing.
@@squeakycleandave1 thanks for your reply. The membrame is only 7 months old. Ive bypassed it and ran water thru the other resin filter. The pressure in the system seems efficient. The blockage happend afther not using it for 10 days or so.
What about the bottle you fill with salt to reenergize the resin? Then, rinse it out, and the resin is good to go again? Or is that something different than the bottle you have there?
I haven't got the most experience with jet washers so you might be best asking a supplier or one of the other UA-camrs as i don't want to give the wrong advice
Good video Dave, the best investment for a water system is a pre water softener, then back flushed every 800-1000 litres depending on incoming TDS saves your r/o system 👍💰
Calcium and chlorine are the 2 main elements for build up and burning your R/O calcium hardens on the pleated material inside your R/O and becomes inefficient 👍
I have a question Flash (good name): I’m keen to set up a DI only system because I can’t park close to my house for very long. My thoughts were a triple DI arrangement to get the water into my van fast, but do water softeners really make a difference with a DI only setup?
@@jonseddon7067 hi Jon, ideally more benefits to have sediment and carbon R/O filter in your system, the softener collects calcium and other deposits which fouls up your system, triples D/I you’re going to burn though your resin..
Hi i will soon be buying a new40/40 membrane but I'm wondering if i have the right One ? Currently i have a low pressure membrane , i just had my tap pressure measured and its 18psi also my water has a tds of aprox 350 -370 . Based on this info is it a high or low pressure membrane i need ? Also i have 1000L ibc tank , i have just cleaned it so i had the chance to see exactly how long it takes to fill from start to finish . . . it took 33 hours is that aprox what you would expect ? i do have it set on exactly 60% waste 40% pure water. so that works out 30L per /hr. . At the moment its not a huge problem as I'm using 300L per /day however should i wish to increase my usage this will be problematic. I spoke with window cleaning warehouse and they said if you use a booster pump it may run to fast for your resin to cope with and as a result your water quality may suffer. Any advice on these points i would be grateful Regards Rob
Even with the lowest pressure membranes you need around 80-90 psi for them to work correctly so at 18 psi, you are way under what is required so I would highly recommend getting a booster pump. I don't know why WCW said your DI wouldn't cope. If you have a very small DI it may be worth getting a bigger one but I would recommend getting a booster pump first and trying that.
Great video Dave! Very informative....we have recently purchased an RO / DI systems with a booster pump and currently getting 2 litres per min of pure water...would you say this good? Appreciate there are many factors that take in to consideration the speed of the pure water delivery. Also on this what ratio would you say is good for pure vs waste water? is it 50/50?
@@squeakycleandave1 resin calculators say I can get 500 liters. Is it possible. Cause I can just use regular water on windows. Then come back with my finite amount of pure
Great little video, thanks. I want to set up a a pure water system to do my own windows and have a couple of questions. Could I reuse the waste water from the RO? (waste water should be the same PPM as the original tap water (yes/no). Is it possible to run the waste water to a tank and then use a pump the water back to the RO and back through a DI vessel? hope this makes sense, Cheers.
Hi Geoff Thanks for the great question. The waste water takes all the impurities out with it so it’s a higher ppm coming out then the original water going in. It is possible to reuse it and filter it again but the more often it goes through the more impure it will become so putting more strain on the filters and resin so I would recommend not doing it if you don’t have to👍
I just recently fitted a water softener in my house. It has two resin tanks, so the system is always providing soft water through one of the tanks whilst the other is regenerating the resin. This remove the limescale (calcium and magnesium) so you don’t get the water stains around the sink and in the bathroom. Would this water be good enough to use with a WFP to clean windows?
I’ve heard the softeners don’t just take out calcium, they switch it for sodium in the process. Check this out, but I thought the same as you until I researched it. I presume the DI then has to filter out sodium instead of calcium so you’re sort of robbing Peter to pay Paul. I would like a definitive answer on this myself though!

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think that they deteriote but the DI resin might. I may be wrong. To clean your gutters and fascia you wouldn't need pure water. You could just attach your pole to the garden tap and use that. If you put a little washing-up liquid on your brush first you would find it a lot easier.

Most window cleaners on you tube use just the RO system not the DI as they say the DI is more expensive in the long run keep changing the bags
Were the RO filters last longer so works out more economical
Any RO system is only guaranteed to get 95% of impurities out of the water so if your water goes in at 400ppm then it will come out at 20ppm which is too high for window cleaning so the DI is normally put in after the RO to polish the water removing the remaining impurities get the water down to 0ppm
Maybe most of the UA-camrs don't mention this but it is industry standard.
I never knew you could go to a fill up site an just buy pure water have you ever used a spotless fill up site ? Has anyone ever tested water from a spotless site to check if its 0PPM ?
also thanks for that and about the tap water for the white sofits I always thought you needed pure water on them as I thought tap Water stained them I have been cleaning them my self with ladders and spray cleaning products with rags but it's far to much effort and dangours tbh what pole would you recommend ? .. I've heard good things about Gardiner slx and ova 8 poles
I also need to reach up in to the peak of the apex to full height of a house as the faciers are on all 4 sides of the house and at the sides they go stright up to the apex not really sure how high that is with out measuring
