Hi Paul,

It would depend on how big of a window cleaning operation you have.

I am just small fry compared to some of the guys on here and just use a backpack. I purify my water at home with RO/DI into 3 x 200 Litre drums, then transfer into smaller 25 Litre drums for my car.

The RO I got from http://www.johnhewitt.com/wc.htm (http://www.johnhewitt.com/wc.htm)

Basically I just run a hose from your outside tap to the RO unit, send the pure to the 200 Litre drums and waste to drain.

John Hewitt will help you if you need advice.

Hope that helps a little,

Gaz

Hi Gaz

I am looking to add window cleaning to my business and am looking for advice before I take the leap. Would you advise ro and di? or just ro?

Thanks again mate

to use both ro and di - would i run a hose from my tap through the ro device then through the di vessel and then into my tank?

I know I am hardwork  ;D

Thankyou

Paul

Tds that high mate you defo need an RO and DI - the RO won't get your Tds all the way to 000 on its own
