Window Cleaning Forum / Re: Flushing RO...do you bother?
« Last post by Stoots on June 28, 2025, 06:27:54 am »
I havent flushed mine for years, i dont even bother with pre filters i just change the membranes once every 1 to 2 years at a cost of £100. Use a sack of resin a year and on a water meter, the cost is so little i dont bother worrying about trying to save a few pennys.

Well if Ionics say so it must be true!🤣🤣

Best get myself some nuclear resin & a ppb system too. Maybe a few more pre filters as well, just for the overkill.

On second thoughts I’ll stick to mains pressure flushing once in a blue moon & rely on my waste ratio to keep enough water flowing over the membrane to keep it clean.


I was just answering your question,  don’t shoot the messenger 😂

Mine's nearly 3 years old.......I have at least a week off every month.......anytime I'm not using it for more than about 3/4 days I flush to waste using pure so that filter is stood in pure rather than contaminated......takes about 3/4 minutes to get pure coming out of waste......other than that I never flush.
How & why do you flush with pure?


Pump pure from the tank through the fill port and open the waist fully on the ro. The pure water helps desolve and remove any dirt in the membrane, we were told by Ionic’s to do this back in 2003 when we had our first system installed.

There are plenty of templates out there that you can start off with.  It's fairly easy really if you know your business well, which I'm sure you do.

I put mine in place very easily and use them regularly for commercial work. 

Each risk assessment will be doctored slightly for each contract, and the method statement shouldn't really change much unless you need to adapt as a result of the RA.

If you haven't already got this in place it's worth hiring the services of a health and safety consultant to design and provide you with a bespoke RAMS that going forward you can edit for every customer that asks for this, you'll be able to complete it and send it to your customers so quickly, which will show your professional and proficient. I did this many years ago and it's still doing the business.

Went great, posted a photo of my scaffold and the height of the platform. Used 2m and 1m frames to give me 3m's in height. Light spray with hypo all over the roof and ends where the dirt runs too. Then scrubbed away with cold water which I find is better when using hypo. Took me a tad over 3hrs so very happy with the result. Any questions then just ask.

How much did you charge?

One thinks one trousered a score, init?
