Im not going to say the Reserve, I think its very realistic.. And would be very dissapoinetd if if did not make it and much more.

I have just had two offers, People in dreamland one did not cover the new membrane and filters the other was not a lot more.

At the end of the day people will pay what its worth for them.

Sorry your incorrect you do not see to understand what's on offer

The pump you will not get form the place you say its a piston/plunger pump and it cost more than twice the one you refuring to. if you could get the water to it it would run the system at 200PSI without any issues!

They are not 10" X 2" filter housings they are 10" X 4.5 you would never user standard 10" housing on a system this size.

The Filter your showing are 10" X 2 and would not last 2 or 3 days work! the ones in this are long life 10 X 4.5, I would not put filters of this type in a big system. because you also would not get the flow rate.



Its not a standard inlne tds meter its panel mounted TDS meter,

http://www.tdsmeter.co.uk/products/DualDisplay.html

You seem to have forgot the steal welded frame.

You may be able to make a system for less but it will not be like this one or as powerful.

The Membrane and Prefilters are new

This depends on your chlorine level really as this is why it it fitted a 10" X 2" cheap CCB will only make around 1000 gallons this is the standard rating if the water has normal chlorine level if it does not you will find it will last longer or shorter, it not a case of changing this filter if it blocked!

I`m intrigued by this system even though it has a "secret" price.
How many watts is the motor and what rpm is going into that interpump?
I would be guessing that the resistance of the membranes affects how much the pump puts into "bypass".Can it run for a long period without overheating ?  What p.s.i. is the system under when running and whats the waste/pure ratio?

Please ignore my ignorance but could you tell me the difference between your system and the one on the link please. I noticed the one on the link has no pump

Ok

Yes the system is similar,

I believe this has the HF4 membrane

It only has 2" diameter filters.

The meter is not a panel mounted controller.

I have just checked the Membrane housing takes a high pressure then the champ one.

Its in a nice steel frame with Wheels.

Oh yes it has a proper pump!

To be honest I'm not sure why I'm getting all this hostile flack. I'm simply selling a RO system and want to get the best price, if you do think its of value to you do not buy it!

I only asked a question, and I did say please forgive my ignorance first! I am looking for a 40/40 set up as I have a merlin at the moment and it's time for an upgrade

Merlin's are OK but they have there limits.. If you get a 4040 system pay the extra and get with a HF5 and try to run it at 80psi +this way you will get better TDS and the life of the membrane will be better. You will save on Resin and water costs.

Please note this was a one off sale. I do not have any more systems, but if you want advice your welcome to PM me.
