Post by: Matthew JN on July 02, 2012, 04:58:40 pm

Hi chaps

Following on from my twin DI system post can anyone who has a van mount fast fill RO system give me some advice on the best manufacturers and their experience of daily use - good or bad.


Many thanks

unless you are looking to spend £400 - £500 on a huge RO or 4040 system
then you would be better off looking for a way to build a static system.

what RO do you currently have, what is the good to bad ratio, you could always upgrade this to get a better output.

Hi  Colt

Go for a Pure Freedom and ask them to put on a booster pump, plus TWIN RO 4040s
That should do the trick.

Did you not have that trailer mounted thingymibob pulled by a black pickup

Hi We have
a home made system 750 ltr in a SWB Puegeot Boxer

a 1000 litre twin RO Twin Pump from Facelift in a MWB Puegeot Boxer

a hot 1000 litre system from Ionics in a Renault Master MWB

All do the same job.

We've just ordered a 1000 litre hot system with hot blower twin pump etc for our new Franchisee in Skelmersdale - can't wait to see it in Action

Hi Chaps thanks for the replies.

Yes Rhino i have looked at the Pure Freedom system - i already have a 24v booster pump for my RO but i don't use it as my tap pressure is fine - can fill 450L in about 7 hours or so.

The reason im looking at alternatives is i want to do away with all this overnight filling malarky, and also want to move house, and don't want to be tied down by having to consider where the van can be parked for overnight filling etc

Looking at twin DI set up with prefilters also.

My twin DI research leads me to think that prefilters are a must because the resin can get clogged with organic matter and then reduce it's effectiveness and the resin can become a breeding ground for bacteria and algaes.

Decided to invest £1200 quid in a pure freedom boosted 40 inch RO system, can fill 500 litres pure in one hour in optimum conditions - don't expect to be quite that fast all year round, but average 125litres in 15 mins.
