Right

A bit of an update

Merlin Flushing Kit - Bought - GAPS water for £45 + VAT

US Deep Cycle Battery - Bought - Battery Megastore for £110 + VAT and thats for the 140ah one as they didnt have any of the 120ah in stock and upgraded it FOC  ;D

But I could still really do with some advice on the Merlin Booster Pump - I know Gardiners did one but I cant find it on there website and there closed on Fridays so I cant speak to them.

Come on Guys I know there has gotta be a few of you out there who have bought them.

Cheers Alistair

Thanks Jerry,

The only thing that has put me of the Wintecs one was that it didnt seem ready to go

To quote Wintecs Website - "Please note this model does not include a pressure switch and will require manual switch off or fitting of solenoid valve."

Shame though cos ive just ordered some Resin from them today  :(

Hi Alistair

I'm afraid we no longer stock booster pumps but try RO-Man.  He has two different types available, a 75 psi pressure regulating pump and a big Merlin compatible pump.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for that the pump on RO-Man certainly looks the daddy.

As for the trade account on RO-Man is that exclusively for resellers or do W/Cers qualify

Regards

Alistair

The trade account is purely for wholesale resellers.

Which ONE of your float valves will i have to fit if i use a merlin booster pump from wintecs

Title: Re: Booster pump

Whether you get it from us or not, you will need a float switch with an electrical cut off as the Wintecs booster pump does not have a pressure switch.

Im thinking of getting a pump from Andrews water treatment, he was very helpful at the show and when we phoned him its not the cheapest pump but its heavy duty at 174 plus vat and delivery. You get about 71 litres per minute from it
