 Hi there,

Just posted this elsewhere might helpp
 
I just ordered my system before christmas after a bit of research !! I have a berlingo van at 600kg payload,
 
£48.00    DIY speedliner (finish was excellent)
£159.00  400ltr baffled tank
£117.00  Fixing kit for the tank
£161.00  Pump board (all u need)
£36.00     Leisure battery (to run pump board)
£14.18     Relay Switch (to charge your les battery)
£156.00  100m anti kink hose plus trolley
£199.00  24ft glass fibre pole (includes brush)
£395.00  300gpd RO (makes 1000ltr a day)
 
All the above is from Clean Tech apart from the liner, think  it came to £1500 quid inc vat + del
 
£400.00  40ft omni power pole
 
If I'm honest I'd go for the Omni RO at 980+vat, more expensive but would be a better buy in the long run !! I'm just setting up a small system to get into wfp but come July I'm gonna buy a full 800ltr omni system.
 
If you think about it the most important thing in wfp is the water purification, thats where you need to spend your money !! all the other parts are by the way !!
 
System set-up I think is pretty bread n butter stuff, you secure a tank in the van have hose come out the tank into 
one side of the piump board then out the other to your hose trolley which connects to your pole and out comes your water !! the battery just powers the pump. as simple as that.
As for the RO water goes in one side and comes out the other, the one other hose is the waste that goes down the drain. 
 
You don't need to confuse yourself with different systems as in my opinion they are nearly all the same they pump pure water up a pole? 
 
Now I have said that I bet I have a mare next week installing it all !! hahaha !!!
 
 
Rob 
 
 
 
 
PS HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL !!!!

Just to set the record straight, what we advertise is the manufacturer's recommended COMPLETE application kit for Protecta-Kote,  at £60 plus £7 carriage plus VAT.  This includes two polypropylene stippled rollers (not easy to come by!). brush, and abrasive pad.  We're also happy to supply just the 4 litre can of the Protecta-kote itself for only £39 plus carriage plus VAT.  We will also supply the necessary xylene solvent for £9/litre.
