Any news on your hot water system yet ?..
-
Looks like someone else has beaten me to it. Fair play to POF. What he has done looks very good for our industry. Good luck to him.
-
Superb set up, thats producing a silly amount extremely quick. Well done Lee
-
Nice bit of kit lee

Looks amazing Lee. Is it Flexeon or Pentair equipment?
-
Impressive set up.
Can anyone explain the salt regeneration part in a little more detail?
-
Brilliant is all I can say.
What amases me is the pure to waste ratio.
Now the big question Lee. How often do you have to change your carbon block filter? Also, what carbon block filter are you using?
Thanks
-
Wow! Very impressive.
You’re gonna need your own reservoir soon! ;D
-
The salt container creates brine water inside the black cylinder. Once the resin in one of the blue bottles is spent the brine water flushes through it to regenerate the resin. At the same time it switches to the other bottle so that it runs all the time with softened water going to the RO. This offers maximum protection to the membranes from scale causing it to slow down and the water quality to drop.
Carbon/5micron sediment filter will change every 6 weeks based on our use.
All parts supplied by GAPS water. The RO unit is their C series (4000) Clack duplex 40L auto softner. Grundfoss mains and RO booster pumps. Axeon HF5 membranes.

Gaps are the daddies when it comes to Water Purification. They know their stuff.
Nice set up Lee

Actually more like the Mummies ;D
-
Nice, are you on a water meter ? :D ;D
-
of course.
-
that is a very large set up! money well spent.
-
Very professional set up. I had to laugh because the item you practically skipped over, the di vessel is the sum total of my own set up. But then our water is around 30 tds.
Well done Lee.
-
of course.
I bet that water bill is a hefty one. :o
Awesome set up.
-
I bet he ain’t on a water meter lol.
-
I just watched your rant about door knocking not working Lee lol,sounds like you didn’t like someone’s comments lol.
-
Yes I will say it again of course we are on a meter. Door knocking works fine for single operators that don't do direct debit.
Thanks for watching! Smashed that number since then!
-
Only joking with you Lee I’d love to have a chat with you one day soon.
-
Hi Lee
Fantastic setup indeed!
The only questions I have are concerning the DI used. What size is it, would two not have been better and how often are you changing resin?
-
This is a 25l vessel and the water going in is 3-5 ppm so is more than enough. I always have a new bag of resin on the shelf and test every few days. Just looks small next to everything else!
-
so your going to start selling the water ? how are you going to know how much people are getting ? can you show us this part as the son is looking in to selling water as well

What makes you think he’s going to sell it? This is to supply his own 20 odd vans.
Edit - My bad, didn’t watch all the video. 🙄
-
We will be selling as mentioned in the video.
We are about to upgrade our transfer pumps, hoses and nozzles to fuel grade setup. We will be adding flow meters as part of this to measure the water dispensed, then use stipe in our office to take card payments.
-
The part in the video were he says "I'm going to be selling water" I would have thought
-
Ha ha beat me to it Lee
-
Love that set up Lee, really impressive. Well done.

Thanks Lee , shall I put you down for 12 then
;D ;D ;D
It has been well liked on the platforms I have shown it on but I get the feeling that it’s still more than what people want to pay !
The stainless heat exchanger unit alone is costing me £250 in parts and labour, I simply can’t do it for any less , I’m better off cleaning windows else :(
-
Oh forgot to say , that RO is a total monster !
One of them tanks would fill my garden ;D
-
I think you should charge more. £1500. Dont undervalue your time or effort.
We are fine with cold. Trouble I have is I need things as simple as possible as our kit gets hammered by my team and it would just be something else to go wrong and cost to run. If I were a single opperator I would have already ordered one from you.

I can’t even sell em for £850 let alone £1500
Tell a lie , sales total is 1 so far :D
-
Marketing!
Why not get hold of a larger supplier and sell it through them.

I only watched about 2 mins of the video , oops 😂

I had a supplier on the phone yesterday as it happens , long story short , he said that as I had already put a price out there it would be hard for him to make anything off the top unless I did a trade price that only put me £100 up per unit .
I think I may have shot myself in the foot with retailers ::)roll
One day I will learn :-\
-
Zesty could be number 2 though !
I will remember to do the 3mm pencil jet test tomorrow mate , 3 LPM wasn’t it ?
-
Tbh - that’s rubbish streamline branded univalve is sold for £75 plus vat in my local cleaning supplier
Your contact is just trying to shaft you mate

He’s probably reading this too ;D ;D :D
I could do a fair cut on say batches of 6 but not what was mentioned !
-
P@F I really think things will pick up sales wise. It just takes time.
Best thing you can do is advertise, make videos of it up and running, pictures etc.
That’s nonsense from The supplier about price. You’ve said yourself this is an introductory price of £850.
Advertise things as “introductory offer”. That way people know it might not always be that cheap.
If I didn’t have a grippa system I’d definitely be getting more info from you.
-
I feel that I have hijacked Lees thread !
If you want further comments chuck em on my VIDEO thread ;D
Sorry Lee ;)
