Not long switched over to DI only so forgot to check tds just checked it and it is 22 ppm , Been cleaning without complaints .

Hopefully it will be ok till i get a back of resin delivered just ordered it so might get it Saturday or Monday will be working all day tomorrow and 1/2 day Saturday . Might call in at mates house and fill tank from his static tank for Saturday .

Bought vessel of ebay filled with resin only lasted about 8 wks using 400 ltrs a day but had a few floods with tank overfilling . Mike

Have used water at 30 ppm before by mistake and didn't get any complaints
Try it on your own windows and maybe fit a float valve to tank

[Mike #1]

At work at 7am tomorrow if it is at 22ppm now it has been well over 000ppm for a while so i am confident it will be ok  for a 1-2 days .

Defo going to sort out a float valve before lawn becomes a swamp . Mike

Get  yourself an ro unit  .

[roundbuilder]

I let mine go upto 30 before changing all the time. 22 is nothing.

[PurefectWindowCleaning]

What is your tap reading to begin with?

[ronnie paton]

This is my point no complaints with water that high, iv tried it and the results are varied sometimes ok some times crap but beer perfect

[dave0123]

My water comes out the RO about 22 .

Would u say i could use it stright onto the windows? would save a lot of money on the resin.

[Mike #1]

My tap tds ranges from 30 ppm up to 47ppm so decent water quality .

Ro is far to wasteful and i can produce water far quicker with DI,  i do have a 200 gpd  RO in garage collecting dust as cant justify wasting 1200 of water a week .

Getting some Tulsion resin from gardiners was going to order from corwoods as much cheaper but was not sure which courier they use and the specify delivery must be signed for .

Fed-ex bloke will always leave order some where secure instead of taking order back to depot . Mike

[Ben wood]

Just got some from corwoods it took 5 days to come

[wfp master]

daqua for youre resin wont get cheaper.quick delivery.

[mikeyfaerosyth]

Checked mine after work today and its reading 009,

which is ok,

tulsion 115 from Dougie Daqua,

Would normaly fill a fresh vessel and swap around (twin di),but only useing one vessel over winter.

Will pop out now and give a wee shake,see what it reads.

[mikeyfaerosyth]

Gave vessel a shake and it reads 000,

better than expected,

so when it rises again will do same.

[paul saunders]

Should've gone to Gardiners, it would've benn delivered before you'd ordered it.

[Mike #1]

Gave vessel a shake and it reads 000,

So giving DI vessel a good shake will help resin last a little longer and lower tds reading nice one . Mike

[Mike #1]

Just checked tds of water in tank 25ppm , commercial job outsides first then insides checked dry windows spotless .,Mike

[dave0123]

hmm.. makes me wanna just use straight forward RO water coming out at 18 atm, i have low presser problems and not much per litre  comes out of tap. would save a fortune.

[Dean Taberner]

It all depends where you are from in the country and what impurities are left in the water from the RO. Some won't leave any marks but some like calcium will.

What you have to remember with the resin too is that once it starts to deteriate then the reading will rise pretty rapidly, so keep a check on it. In high TDS areas it can go from an ok 005ppm to a bad 050pm in one tank fill.

[Dean Taberner]

Also if you're doing commercials and have in your method statement that you're using 000pm to a max of 002pm like I have then make sure it stays that way. You never know when some smart backsided none window cleaning minded person is going to check.

Dean.

[Tom White]

I've cleaned with a high TDS of 35 before and it looked good in normal light, but when the Sun was low in the sky and the light polarised the marks on the window that were invisible earlier; it didn't look so good.

I'm sure I've seen Stu post similar; he lives in a soft water area which has a naturally low TDS (like 25 or something), yet he still puts it through a DI, and he's a tight jock, so if it wasn't required, he wouldn't do it.
