you will also need a tds meter

Wot is the tds reading from your tap? because depending on this you may not need a ro system

Not sure what the tds of water in Sheffield is. Will go out and buy a meter and test it. What is an acceptable tds reading for cleaning without having to buy a RO system?

Carl

Your best bet would be to test your water first with a tds meter then come back on this site with your findings, then the guys on here will advise you whether you need a ro system or not. Some say if your meter readings are below 100tds then a ro unit is not needed, only a di system.

Hope this helps

about 70/80 max imo or costs would be higher if low you only need di.

battery, and charger or split charge relay system

spares - carry a box of spare hose fittings and hose clips & o rings

also think about whats going to hold your tank in place - heavy duty tank straps or a fitted steel cage??
