Brodex should come up with a solution, if not it is very poor service.

Hi Telboy, are these the two grey tubes on top of the machine full of resin or the blue filters on the front panel. Mike

I've got 2 of these which I use. Similar to Ionics but DIY refillable at a fraction of Ionics prices

PVCU cement is rubbish for joining end cap. Best result is to use slow drying araldite.

We used super glue
seemed pretty solid when we put it back on

But the first time we switched it on
it blew off again, resin filters the lot all over the place
