Also it takes a little while for the membranes to settle in so like you said flush for a good couple of hours. For the first few weeks you will wonder if it was worth going wfp,after that you will never look back,it's a very good tool  ;)

Can you take the base sections off the pole when you don't need them? If you can it'll be a lot easier. A 20' pole will do most domestic work.

 :o  That's not water, that's treacle!

Bumper that pole will do you some damage, mate.  If you're skint or just thrifty, have a search on this site for a Harris pole.  B @ Q sell them for £15 and they're very good; they're about 18 foot long and great for banging about on domestic work; and they're easy to convert.

Sorry, Bumper, I don't think I can help you since my RO works a treat, so I've got no experience with your system.

Have you put it together properly?

Hopefully someone will come along with some better advice.

did you buy the system complete or did you add the items to the cart yourself for some reason its cheaper to add the items to the cart seperately than just adding the complete system  ??? ??? don't know why  ???

i found out when i was getting my purefreedom trolley system so i added the items to the cart seperately and instead of getting the pole from them i used the money i saved to get a gardiners clx pole   ;D ;D

i don't know why it is cheaper but i didn't mind as i worked it out before i purchased the equipment  ;)

At 120ppm & a trolley system IMO you would have been better of without an RO & just two 11Ltr DI vessels.

Very simple, very fast to fill up, no waste, no hassle & A bag of Tulsion resin would last you about 6 months! ;)


I run a 400ltr van mount with twin DI's, I use 2 bags of resin per year!

Did you ask for an RO? Did PF ask what your tap TDS was?

bumper did you get a booster pump you might have low tap pressure i only had a trickle coming out my 450 gpd so i went to my local marine/tropical fish shop and got a booster pump now i can fill a 25ltr barrel in 50 minutes

i got the booster pump because i can't wait forever as i live in a flat and have no storage tank
