Static system which ro..?
« on: February 26, 2012, 11:40:29 am »
Hi all

Thinking about a static system in my garage, looking for an Ibc tank 1000L- which ro unit is the most cost effective also should I keep di vessel on van or incorporate it into the static set up?

I recently set up an IBC in the garage, i went for a wickes pump cost about £45 plus a bit for some hose.
Only bought myself a smallish RO unit which i thought would be fine for my use as only just started up but already i'm beginning to realise i should of gone for a far bigger unit with the amount of new custys i'm getting.

Twin 4040 pumped to get it that quick. The pressure in mk is not good so you need it pumped. A single 4040 should still be good mind. I'm getting about 300 liters an hour

I've had the wickes and the B&Q sub pumps. Both similar in speed and I think the B&Q one is a bit cheaper

definitely 4040, if your water flow/pressure isn't good enough going to struggle to get that even, with a booster should get between 200 and 350 litres an hour.

could do with checking water pressure, as they have pressure regulating valves on most estates/areas, so depending on how hilly it is where u are, you may be good, or not so.

I have something that would suit you. An Ionic Pro5 {twin 4040 with two extra filters and water softener} attached to a 1000 litre tank. It's in the for sale section.
