You need a bigger pole,.. I'd go for 18' minimum.
The reel is rubbish,.. get a decent all metal one, and 100 mtrs of mini/microbore, NOT 30mtrs of 1/2" hose,... its worth the few quid extra it'll cost.
I got a 300GPD RO off ebay for £115 inc postage a while back. The membranes are still going strong,... but even if they only last a year its a bargain!

Get a bag of resin,.. better to be looking at it than looking for it!

Are you getting any kind of tank securing brackets?

TDS Meter is your first port of call to check your PPM. If your PPM is very low then DI route is best as you can fill a tank in 10 mins.

could you not ask for an 18ft pole instead of 12ft.

As 12ft is pretty much useless.

Unless you have a lot of houses for little people.

the 18ft one costs £80 i could make a custom one cheaper.  All the above list came off the cleaning spot website

The 12ft pole IMO is a waste of money, an xtel 17ft pole is about the same price as the 12ft one and is usable, why not give purefreedom a call or alex G and see what they come up with for around the same price.

Well that saved about £100, and you will get what you need, just need to have the tank secured and away you go.

I am guessing they include a pump strainer with that because I would defo have one best check

50mts of hose would usually do 30 too short, 100 too long (besides more back pressure on pump!)
I have 50 mts of minibore, works a treat!

Also cleaning spot are reliable & good!
