Title: Wfp experience required
Post by: simbag on March 28, 2006, 02:54:20 am
Hello,

Just spent the last 6 or so hours this eve, searching for alternative systems to the big names. I looking to most probably get a van mount system, but am in 2 minds as whether to go for a static RO unit, and have the DI in the van. This is mainly because I am unsure of refill time for all the systems I've seen!

I have seen some nice looking system at www.streampole.co.uk and was wondering if anyone has had any dealings with them at all? They offer the complete package, including fitting and speedlining of your van in the price.

I am looking to get between a 275-400 ltr tank for the van (probably closer to the higher end). As I don't yet have a van, I would like to go for a smaller van and have my eye on an astra. I know these have quite a small payload, but I was wondering if someone could clarify that for me to, I'm sure its over 500kg though.

All input greatly appreciated.

Simon

IMO, static RO is better if you have the facilities because your van won't be tied up while the van mount filters and fills.
As for payload, it depends what version you want.

I,m on second Stream system they do give complete package at a competitive price , but, your system will look professionally fitted, especially with black floor & tank. Good for commercial jobs & demo,s.

Have you thought of combo the poles fit inside them, i nearly had one but stuck with scudos you get higher payload & space for your money.

Cheers for that link - very useful.

Am I being dense but what is IMO?

Gary, I am quite tempted by the combo, especially new shape with side loading door, and scudo infact. I'm just that as I will be selling my car to get the van, it will be my sole vehicle, therefore wanted something a bit more car like. Don't know if I'm just being vain, but the idea of driving around in a large(ish) van the whole time doesn't thrill me!!

However will continue to look.

Soz about that.  It's easy to forget that not everyone is familiar with internet speak.
If it's any help, there are a load of them listed at the following link.  I wasn't aware of a lot of them either.
