JSM,

I tried one and it was more hassle than it was worth, whatever I tried the threaded cap leaked and no matter how much resin I packed into the thing whenever I changed it it seemed to shrink. Because the water quality went down so quickly I recon that the water tracked over the top of the resin. Anyway I've gone back to Ionic filters.

John,

There is a thread somewhere on this site which shows you how to change an Ionics DI Vessel for a normal one which will save you loads of ££££ ;D ;D

cheers all ,
I already have a small 11 ltr Di vessel on the back of a Merlin , but its only a small one and I now have two vans filling up from the ibc tank , so I'm changing it alot now - I was hoping they might work out cheaper ( being a tight git )

 I just want to fill them up and forget them for a few months - if you know what I mean ,

looks like I may have to dig deep and get some big vessels to add to the small one

D.A, I was one of the first to buy a Pro-7, although the saving in water was a great benefit the blue colour change filters only lasted about 3-4 weeks, that's why I tried a re-fillable one. Anyway Ionic did a free upgrade back in the summer and six months on I'm still on the same filter! So now its excellent and I can see exactly when I'll need to change the filter.
