Title: Water Purification System
Post by: Keith Elmer on January 27, 2014, 04:38:15 pm

Hi all.

New to this site and have found some interesting reading.

I have been running a window cleaning franchise for almost 2 years.  I have been offered to have a water system installed at my house for £1600 including fitting.  Is this worth the money.  More importantly, how does this effect the water bill.  I use on average 250 to 300 l pre day.

thx for any help Keith.

Even if you wanted you wanted a 40/40 (a high production system)you could get the full setup for half the price you've been quoted.
The flip side to that is i'd inagine you'd be paying for help etc....?
Imo still not worth the extra £800-900.
A 450gpd would be fine for your usage (search: collins water products:google)
Or if you wanted more water just incase get a 40/40 setup (search: vyair - google)

as for your water bill should not be to bad with your usage , just factor it into your

pricing .

Keith I'm sure someone on here lives near you and would help you set it up and what to buy m8.
I got my 450 GPD set up off Colin's water for £200 1000 L tank someone on here may have one for sale they not to expensive. I've got a booster pump on mine which is the aquatech 8800 there about £100 you can run system without but it fills my tank up faster and saves my resin as water goes thru quicker. A Di bottle and bag of resin. 👳👳👳
