would i be right in thinking..... Its just turning the tap head so all the water that flows through, just goes straight out too waste? & you run it like that for about 10 mins   your advice please, if im really barking up the wrong tree

i think what your describing is "flushing" and "back washing" is something else! anyone correct me/elaborate on this please!

i flush the ro for 30 mins every week but i still havnt got my head around backwashing yet!

Supposed to flush weekly, for like an hour or something.

I had mine going for several months without real flushing and tds didnt rise  , but apparently little and often is the best, i try to do mine for 10 to 15 minutes every week.  Or thats the plan.  Just as important is looking after your prefilters, changing them regularly.

I thought backwash was using the salt?

Blimey, you'll be posting about a "reverse Dutch Steam boat" next

Flushing is flushing your RO unit on full waste.

Backwash is regenerating your water softener resin with salt.

Thats the way i understand it.

I flush my RO for about 5 -10 minutes on full waste every time I make 1000 litres of pure which is roughly once a week. I regenerate my water softener after making 1000 litres of pure also.

never backwashed in 7 years Ive had my system as Ive never had loose resin !!!!!! infact never done nothing to it only change filters about once every 14 months as I got sediment filter carbon filter and a sealed di filter { omnipole set up } the bollox mighten I say Mr Bones !!!

[rscleaningservices]

Just wanted to say the only thing I flush is the toilet aint that right mr bones !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a backwash last night while having a bath. I definately can confirm you don't need the tap full on to have a back wash.
