Hi i dont think you can buy pure water my friend you have to make it yourself thats what wfp systemss do make their own pure water?
-
err...you can actually...it's just a question of who's nearest to him...and cheapest.....
-
take it your not supplying it then easycleanwindows, doesnt matter luv :)
-
Surely if you can find a 'pure water' supplier why the need for static making facilitys,resin,ro units?Why do wfp users need this if we can get pure water delivered straight into a tank on our vehicles?
-
So cos ive got no place to stick an ro unit for a trolley system what do u suggest i do for my first WFP, I have a small escort van... and am willing to shell out 2 grand to set it up?
-
because it's cheaper to make your own...relatively speaking...but if you don't have that outlay to start with, then it's a way in to buy your water. There are growing 'Well's' around the country. My Company supports 4 of us, and another member supports another 2...I'm sure there are more...

well you learn something new every day.Appologies i didnt realise you can get it allready pure.I make 1400 ltrs a day thru my van system
-
You sending any up my way then sweetpea?
-
'Scuse me DG - why have you nowhere to put an R/O? mine is only about 22" x 18" X 6" - or is water storage the problem? Cuz £2k could set you up nicely IMO

Malc G Explain how id store one.. im not sure really not looked into poles much but i was told of a guy on here that u need to store it in a warm dry place that has water and electric supply so, the only place i got is the house, cos no garage and it cant fit knowwhere here.
They are supposed to be quite big so ive heard like 4 foot or sommat, makes it kinda complicated,but if you know any different please let me know.

Replies to Midas and D.G. Windows
Hello Midas - The mountain scene is in North Wales - the peak in the distance is Snowdon (Highest mountain in the British Isles outside of Scotland) and although it doesn't look it is actually a little higher than the peak to the right. The photo is taken from the top of Crib Goch - another 3000ft+ mountain and the Crib Goch ridge in between is fun to walk/scramble with spectacular views and stunning drops either side!
DG - My R/O is connected to an outside tap (when I need to use it) and the pure water feeds into a 210l water-butt outside my back door. The waste goes down the drain. (My system is the aquatec trolley system from Peter Fogwill.)
During the recent sub zero night temperatures I put the unit inside and fed the water tubes out through a hole in the wall. I've only had the system a month and I will get round to building a shed structure around it all soon and put in a greenhouse type heater for frosty nights next winter.
