I have 2 large DI vessels similar to the ones at the link but a little bigger
They are (exterior dimensions)48" high by 26" circumference at a guess they hold about 5 gallons maybe more,
what would the cost be to replace the resin

As you are in the USA, I think a USA gallon is smaller than a UK one. So if it's 5 US gallons, it's about 5.9 UK gallons is about 26/27 litres. So that's slightly more than a 25 kilo bag of resin I think. At around £65 - £75 a bag that would cost around $115 - $125 at current exchange rates. There are quite a few variables in there (especially exchange rate) and conversions are approximate. Recent exchange rate fluctuations are probably irrelevant as the resin is probably not imported anyway. Goods generally seem to be cheaper in the US so the calculation above may be way off.

Thanks Shiner, It was the price over there I was looking for :)

Regenerating DI tanks in the US is much more cost effective if you are not using an RO unit.
I am currently working on building an RO DI and once I have it all set up, I plan on purchasing a small DI tank and then replacing the Resin myself.
