« on: July 25, 2010, 07:37:37 am »

it also depends on how much water you are going to be using and quick you need to produce it ??

depending on how much water you want to produe would give a better idea of what unit to go for but a 300 gpd with a booster pump will produce plenty of water , it dont mater if its from ro man or pure freedom these style of units are all the same , 3x prefilters & 3x membranes . with you being from hull why not have a drive down to pure freedom at grimsby , theres some helpfull guys there who will sort you out with whats best for your needs .

i have a ro-man 300gpd with booster pump, and that does me just fine, using a similar amount of water to what you are.

ive been looking on ebay theres a 6 stage filtration system for about 300 quid on a koi site, are more filters better or will it be just more expensive to replace the parts when worn out

the 6 stages are just 3x pre filters which are around £26 per set minght need changing around every 6 months . then 3 x membranes these vari in price say from £25 upto around £55 depending where you get them from but these should last a good few years .
