How long will my resin last
« on: January 16, 2006, 10:31:40 pm »

  Haven't started WFP yet but my tap water TDS is 25 ( Stirling, Scotland )
  so how long will a 25l bag of resin last.

  Cheers

Easy way to work out how many litres of pure per 25 ltr bag of resin:

500000 divided by TDS in.  So at 25 you will get approx 20000 litres of pure water out.

Hope this helps

Always have a bag on standby though because theres no warning.It will just plummet.
